Nice to see things clicking, though there's still work to be done, no doubt. But if JC gets some time and can get his rhythm, he's got a gun. I'm not so surprised to see JC stepping up--it takes time to learn this system, and offense is generally behind D in preseason. We know this every year, but still we freak out!

Mason looked good--and he even threw a good block on a blitz, if I recall. Love to see him make it. And if Marko doesn't make it, yes, nuts should be kicked. Squarely.

Barnes and Tryon looked better on the few plays I noticed (the pick was a gimme, but, hey! He caught it!) Smooty looked good, but Wes W wasn't in there. Moss fried us, but I'll chalk that up to his ability and Brady's. Still, we've gotta tighten it up back there!

Blades hit that caused the fumble was brutal! I really think he's a baller and he's learning from London, no doubt. And kudos to the staff for the quick challenge there!

Penalties gotta stop--obviously.

One more thing I really liked: JC standing in and taking the hit, but getting the ball to Betts. That's impressive. And loved the pump fake on the TD.

We've played 3 extremely tough Ds and it will help us down the road, I'm sure. Let's just keep growing.
