I'm really impressed by how efficient our offense moved the ball. (both 1st and 2nd string) Rex played a phenominal game, and has now set the bar for Beck. Seeing our RBs run tonight was a breath of fresh air after last pre-season and seeing the likes of Larry Johnson and Willie "not so fast" Parker unable to break the line of scrimmage. Torrain better be worried. He's got competition for sure. Really impressed with Royster and TH. WR's did a great job, minus Hank and looks to be a position of strength now.
Bad:
1) Coverage from 1st team was horrible. It's not just the safeties either. D.Hall and Wilson were getting burnt.
2) Special teams, minus Gano and Banks. (graham and robinson were awful)
3) Hankerson still having drop issues
The front 7 on the D-line was a huuuuge improvement over last year and this was exactly what I was looking for tonight. Pressure, stuffing the run. Our coverage is a big ? at this point, but hopefully that clears up some come next pre-season game.

On that early play when Big Ben just missed his guy, both WRs were open deep
