I expected a loss but not that ugly. And not that way, even our supposed areas of strength sucked last night... urrrghhhh ...



Positives:

-Zach Vigil definitely is a nice surprise

-We generated more pressure than I expected against a really solid OL (least sacked team in the NFL, only 13 sacks allowed before this week, we got 2 in the first half)

-I thought our own OL hold up pretty good in pass protect (considering how banged up it is) until pretty late in the game

-Crowder seems to finally have found his hands back. Tough catch in the first half, and no drops.

-Also a nice tough catch by Niles Paul in the first half (I'm digging for positives...)

Negatives

-Poor effort overall

-Very disappointed by our secondary. Even Norman has not been himself lately...

-We can't stop the run even against a poor rushing team

-We can't run the ball even against a poor rush defense

-We're officially out of the PO race. Season's over. Onto next year. Let see if Gruden can fight for his job. I hope he does.


Finally, I don't know what to think of Kirk's performance. He definitely improved his pocket mobility and ability to extend the play. Made some tough throws.
But also had some poor decisions and could have had more than one pick... And he kinda faded away as the game went on.

*Sigh*... let the "burn it down" parade begin...
