Thread: The Good and the Bad: Week 7

I'm on my phone and didn't watch this game as closely as others so this will be a short one.

Good:

CJ/Booker: They were both excellent tonight. Best we have run the ball all year. Was great to watch. Mo must have hated it.

Sanders: Dude is just steel. Another very solid game from the him.

Siemian: Nothing flashy, but he got the job done. Very solid game.

Defense: The whole unit gets on this list tonight. Easily their best game of the year. They completely shut Brock down.

Bad:

Nothing really jumps out to me as bad in this game. This was easily our most complete team game all season. This is the team I've been waiting to see.

Talib is so damned hood.

Talib or Von Miller is DPOY. Talib so hooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood.

A lot of good tonight. I felt pretty confident throughout, even down 6-0.

Bad: We had a string of 4 holding calls in the first 15 minutes of the game. It's hard to get the offense going when good plays are called back.

The Texans were holding pretty hardcore, but weren't called. It's hard to overcome refs calling every play one sided. I think the oline did pretty good despite that.

thread should be "The Good and the Hood, week 7", so there's my lone criticism.

Next week should be interesting.

The good: Kubs was back. Maybe it was playing against Brock, but the team looked different. Talib (defensive player) gave Kubs the game ball after the game.

The bad: The first quarter on offense and slow starts. Our first first down came in the closing seconds of the quarter.

The ugly: San Diego coming to town next week. Our offense needs to step it up.

Good, Talib catching the WR in midair on 3rd and short and clown hammering his face in the ground.

Bad, Jordan Norwood costing team a TD on a perfectly thrown pass.

The Bad: Gruden and Co. noted Houston has the leagues 3rd worst run D, and their 2nd best pass D was down 3 safeties, a CB and JJ Watt, with even Jonathan Joseph playing hurt. The offense performed far better than it has against the other garbage Ds we've faced so far, but is hardly out of the woods. The reality is that Houston's just not a good team. I'd like to believe we've magically and inexplicably turned a corner, but the evidence is... inconclusive.

Solid beatdown of a bad team though; our coaches are fully vindicated (because winning a SB while Houston was getting blown out and SHUT out hadn't done that.)

Bad: Interior pass rush. I don't like how easily Brock was able to step up in the pocket and that there were lanes for him to run through. I know Brock running the ball isn't a huge concern, but if he doesn't have that space to step up or those lanes to run through then we get a few more sacks and qb hits. I'm just being picky. Can't be mad at that defensive effort. Solid game. Time for vengeance on Sunday.

The hood: Talib doing hood things!

The badass: Derek Wolfe dislocating a finger, popping it back in place and returning a play later.

Bad, Todd Davis, dude sucks.

I think Denver should move Marshall back to his '15 spot and move Dakota Watson inside.

Btw, NFL officiating sucks too.

I'm developing a man crush on Booker. I really think we nailed it on that pick.

Yep. O-line played better as the game wore on. It's more that we had a bunch of holding penalties against SD last week, so it's definitely not a good trend. Our offense did very well when we weren't constantly pushed back 10 yards, so I think it's worth noting when holding penalties stunt our drives.

Marshall got hurt and might not play on Sunday, so you'll have to wait to see if they adjust. I actually didn't think Davis was that bad in this game, but Nelson was playing a lot in place of him down the stretch.
