disgusted and pissed
Seriously. I expected nothing even approaching the level he was yesterday, coming off what he did and what his strengths are when healthy. You hear all the usual stuff about "he looks good in practice" but I figured that was just the normal fluffing.* Excellent debut by Dion Lewis. He continued to make positive yardage no matter how small the crease he had was. We even got to see him and James White (who was excellent also) playing out of a split backfield and I imagine we'll see more of that down the road. I can't emphasize enough how impressed I am with how much tougher White is when taking on tacklers. His 2nd effort to get a key first down was even better than his TD run, imo.
Cannon is definitely night and day from last year,even to my untrained eye.
Chung is definitely good in his second stint with his new role. He seems even to have gotten better in coverage. Maybe he is the anti McCourty, he's better closer to the LOS. Speaking of which, McCourty I thought had a nice day tackling also.
I thought BB really wanted to get #LEG CARROT a TD until that last part. People sometimes forget that BB usually does guys a solid vs their old teams/HCs when he can. But the kneeldown is how he treats HCs/orgs for whom he has respect, IMO.
How come Mitchell looks so tall when he's only 5'11"?
