Scott Turner needs to do a better job. I was a little underwhelmed

I think this is a prove it year for him. RR said he doesnt want a long rebuild. 2 years of a bottom 5-10 offense ...

Didn’t like the Moses thing. Most people on this board thought for some reason it was a good thing. Have been worried about this o line for months. It is a huuuuuge problem. Another huuuuuge problem is Scott Turner.
Kicker.
Linebackers
Secondary
Not 100 percent on board with Rivera either but he is probably the best we can get to play for the Snyders.

It really feels like we make minor improvements every year and they never translate onto the field. I want to pin my hopes on a real quarterback but we do not have the pieces around him to move forward.

Part of the Moses thing is he was like only 8.5 mill. I mean you committed 18 to a guard. And then you got a discount on your left tackle…Leno is making like 5 mill.

Forcing cosmi was a substantial difference maker in the game Sunday. I’m being 100 percent honest, Lucas and Moses play at tackle in spite of bad defense…are chances of winning that game are much much higher.

It’s really something to watch as the season goes on

Agree

At this point just buy into the Watson trade and start building around him, he is 25 even if they suspend him a year he has tons of playing time left.Use his year off to find more pieces.

I understood the Moses decision in the moment, but it sure doesn't look good right now...
With how bad our secondary looked, cutting Moreland doesn't seem that smart either.
Won't even mention LB, I'd be spamming at that point...

I think the Moses thing had more to do with a locker room/culture thing more than anything.

That’s strange to me. He went from Bruce’s “damn good” (not) culture to Rivera - I’d have thought that the latter would be a massive upgrade to the former. But I don’t disagree based on the reports.

It’s possible to scheme around other deficits - but a bad O line = doom and that’s my big fear right now. The Chargers D is legit, so we will see how things go with a lesser D this week, but the early signs aren’t encouraging. In terms of coaching, it almost felt like we took for granted that our D would be stifling and therefore the offense just needed to be good enough. Neither held true.

Jackson played well, showed he is a physical corner who can stick with guys 1 on 1.

Curl looked good.

McCain looked good. Like a Curl clone.

St Juste was targeted and he allowed catches but he was right there.

Didnt notice Collins, Everret (did he dress?), no idea why a McTyer got some much playing time.

Jackson made some nice plays but he also let WRs get more YAC by not wrapping them up when attempting to tackle. Jackson needs to improve in the tackling area.

I've only seen the highlights thus far, but my two big takeaways from what I saw were 1) too much cushion in the secondary and 2) really poor tackling. I'm curious if anyone has stats on their yards gained after contact?

[SunnySide]

Bridgewater went 28/36 for 264 yds, 2 tds no ints

Daniel Jones went 22/37 for 267, 1 td 0 ints. sacked twice

Most surprising thing is Giants ran the ball 20 times for 60 yards. Sterling Sheppard balled catching 7, 113 yds and 1 td.

Von Miller had 2 sacks, 3 tfl and 2 qb hits.

Evan Engram missed the game.

The issue with Watson on this team is … with all the other stuff that has gone on with the cheerleader scandals etc .. gonna be hard to bring in Watson without a huge uproar ..

So true. It would be really hard to swallow for a lot of people, but ultimately if he were to come here and lead to the team to a championship, it would be a happy ending for all of us.
