He stared down the receivers, but sold a few plays pretty well. Also recognized every blitz and checked down to the correct receiver. Still , he missed every long throw.

They did run the strech at least twice where it was obvious (first team). It looked like Portis will love it. Ladell looked great, caught a real nice catch across the middle. Run blocking was not as big part of the game. Gibbs worked hard at the passing.

He ran his blitzes, but the guys really didn't seem to attack all that hard. Taylor/Bowen didn't play till late in the 2nd Q. Jimoh beat regularly.

Nothing special about special teams. Chandler missed a 40+ yard FG.

Cooley was used sparingly. He caught a pass in the flat for 16 yards and was out of there.
Note: Nemo may be the gem of this years draft. Looks like a real powerful 3rd and 1 guy. Never stopped for a lose or no gain, he always got something. (Including our only TD)
