Interesting game.
The whole OL sucked. Only Asamoah had a positive grade. Winston led the team in pressures allowed.
Jon Baldween got himself a huge amount of snaps, 48, with 37 pass. He was targeted 4 times for 0 catches.
The D was a mixed bag. Tyson Jackson did nothing, as expected, in his 23 rushes. Further proof that his "improvement" was a mirage.
Most of the D was pretty awful. Poe did nothing in 68 snaps. DJ and Hali sucked. Brandon Siler did have a pretty nice game with a +0.9 and 4 stops, which is good for him.
But there was one bright spot.
Eric Berry had a monster +5.7 game, which happens only a few times a season at most positions. He made 7 stops, which is a lot. He was also targeted in coverage just twice, allowing 1 catch for 7 yards.
We lost the game and saw further proof that Berry is getting back to where he needs to be. I'm pretty happy.
Interesting season note: Berry is 2nd in the NFL in stops for safeties. I think you'll see him back at SS this year. He's done a good job in run defense.
Before anyone whines: a stop is defined thusly.

A first down on third or fourth down
