highlights and lowlights so far

[irish]

I think the biggest surprise from most people's expectations is that this team is only mediocre. The D cant hold a lead, the O is still struggling, and the coaching staff still cant manage the clock or adjust at halftime. Three years into Gibbs 2.0 I think most expected this stuff to be ironed out and the team would be fine tuning at this point.

Busts: Smoot & LLoyd. Both should never have been brought here.

Great: Fletcher. The guy has been a beast.

I disagree about Smoot. At least he's a viable #2 CB. He was a huge upgrade over Mike Rumph/Kenny Wright.

I agree about Fletcher, with an assist to Montgomery developing better than expected as a run stuffing DT.

How can he be an upgrade, let alone a huge upgrade, when he barely plays?

Smoot has played well when he's been out there. What has he missed, 3 games? I would take a semi-healthy Smoot over the stiffs we had for CB depth last season. And yes, I call that a huge upgrade.
