1. We will never win unless we stretch the field. And two bombs a game doesn't count. We need more 10 to 20 yard routes.
2. While it looked like Damon panicked in the rush sometimes, whenever they showed the replay, there was a Bear dude coming in completely unblocked. Even so, it showed that he can't scramble at all.
3. Larry is a superstar whether his stats reflect it or not.
4. Bowe is just what this offense needs - a powerful guy who can fight for jump balls.
5. Webb was pretty darn impressive today. A Bowe/Webb/Sippio/Gonzalez set will put any cornerback under 6 feet out of business.
6. McIntosh is pretty good. It's just too bad that he's a cripple.
7. Our pass protection is pretty good as long as the other team doesn't do anything fancy, and when they do, we're screwed.
8. I have no idea who this kicker is, but I feel better with him in there than Medlock.
9. I think I might rather have Phinisee returning kicks than Drummond. He runs side to side a lot, and doesn't seem that fast.
10. Our front four, regardless of the group, is attacking a lot more than they have for the past ten years. They were blasting off the line of scrimmage in a way that made me happy.
11. Our front four has the potential to be scary when Jared Allen comes back, which is next week for those of you who don't know how to use a calendar.
12. It's going to be a crime to bench Wilkerson when Allen comes back. I don't know where to line him up, but he needs to be on the field.
13. I think our front four is going to make our LBs and DBs look pretty good this year.
14. This linebacking corps is pretty darn good against both the pass and the run.
15. This is the year that Derrick Johnson begins a run of pro bowls.
16. I like our CB situation with Law, Surtain, and Sapp, but I worry a bit about how often Surtain seems to get burned.
17. I'd like to see more out of our new safeties than I have so far. I don't think Pollard has even killed anybody yet.
18. This team has a lot of talent. The main thing holding us back is a conservative game-planning philosophy on offense that values field position over points. Newsflash to Herm: you need points to win!
