After Sunday’s win against the Patriots there was a lot to be impressed and hopeful about; and not so much about a lot of things. Here’s my game recap:
The Good
- The defense still looks elite and top tier
- Demario is playing like the best linebacker in the league
- Marshon had an outstanding day, allowed 4 catches on 10 targets for 42 yards and had an INT
- Chauncey is a stud, he didn’t get a lot of credit for forcing play backwards behind the line
- Cam Jordan had 8 pressures and quietly had a solid game
- Paulson Adebo is physical and aggressive when it comes to tackling, which is what you want in a corner
- Marcus Williams neees to be paid, he’s playing crazy good
- Pressure was on Jones all day
- Alvin Kamara is just doing Alvin Kamara like things
- The offense was able to move the ball and get some momentum at the end of the game
- Taysom Hill got involved a little more than the previous two weeks
- Marquez Callaway got more involved, but needs more consistency in being available
- Offensive line played well considering Terron and McCoy were out, props to Hurst and Throckmorton
- Special teams is still being a critical part to the team’s success
The Bad
- The kicker situation, two missed kicks
- The offense needs to get into a better rhythm consistently
- Callaway did step up but the receivers still need to be more available for Jameis
- Jameis is still having trouble with just taking a sack/trying to extend a play that has no right being extended
- Adam Trautman is playing terrible and needs to improve
- Ryan Ramczyk needs to play more consistently, he gave up some blocks
- Receivers need more separation, this will probably be an issue until Michael Thomas comes back
Game Ball
Marshon Lattimore gets the game ball, a week after having surgery on his thumb and missing week two he balled out. He was targeted 10 times, allowed 4 receptions for 42 yards with an interception and pass break up, all with a cast in his hand. He allowed a passer rating of 19.0 and totaled 10 tackles.
