After reviewing the tape of the first win of the season one phrase comes to mind,\u00a0“complementary football”. \u00a0In all four phases of the game (offense, defense, special teams and coaching) there were contributions which led to a complete thrashing of\u00a0MIA. \u00a0Let’s take a look:<\/p>\n
– Impressive performance by the coaching staff in incorporating so many new faces. \u00a0There’s been a ton of roster moves over the past three weeks but the coaching\u00a0staff has put the players in position to contribute. \u00a0In today’s game alone\u00a0Terrence Brooks (PHI), David Bass (SEA), Lawrence Thomas (DLine), Jermaine\u00a0Kearse (SEA) and Austin Seferian-Jenkins (Suspension) had a big impact.<\/p>\n
– Impressive adjustments by John Morton and the offensive staff in neutralizing Wake\u00a0and Suh. \u00a0Early on Wake looked like he was going to cause Brandon Shell problems in\u00a0pass protection. \u00a0But by using the TE and FB to assist Shell every now and then Wake\u00a0was taken out of the game after the first quarter. \u00a0And Suh’s name was never heard\u00a0throughout the game. \u00a0Also, using Lawrence Thomas as a FB was effective and the\u00a0“hands catch” he made for a first down was impressive.<\/p>\n
– Terrific film study by the punt return unit. \u00a0There were about 3-4 players signaling\u00a0that MIA was about to run the fake punt which never had a chance and resulted in an INT.<\/p>\n
– Terrence Brooks was all over the field in his role as the third safety with two INT’s\u00a0and a QB pressure.<\/p>\n
– The ILB’s showed up and deserve credit as they maintained their gaps finally. \u00a0Darron\u00a0Lee was solid but Demario Davis was an absolute beast with multiple TFL’s.<\/p>\n
– Impressive debut by David Bass after being picked up 3-4 days ago. \u00a0He brought edge\u00a0pressure multiple times from the DE & OLB spots.<\/p>\n
– Josh McCown continues to be efficient and complete a high percentage of passes as he\u00a0manages the offense. \u00a0And finally we have a QB that can actually reach Robby Anderson\u00a0on that 60+ yard TD.<\/p>\n
– The DLine didn’t make a ton of “sexy” plays but they destroyed MIA run blocking by\u00a0getting constant penetration. \u00a0That allowed the LB’s to flow to the ball freely which\u00a0shut down Ajayi all game.<\/p>\n
– With the DLine and the LB’s doing their jobs the secondary was able to lock down MIA\u00a0WR’s. \u00a0Particularly effective were Morris Claiborne and Darryl Roberts.<\/p>\n
– With all three phases of the defense being effective the full impact of Jamal Adams\u00a0was able to be seen. \u00a0Bowles used him as a “moveable chess piece” deploying him in\u00a0coverage, run support and as a blitzer. \u00a0He had a fantastic game with multiple PBU’s,\u00a0multiple TFL’s and a sack. \u00a0You love the emotion but he has to be careful with the taunting\u00a0penalty he picked up late in the game.<\/p>\n
– Fantastic acrobatic catch by Ardarius Stewart, he needs more reps than Jeremey Kerley.\u00a0Kerley was effective in the return game but he shouldn’t be getting more action than the\u00a0kid WR’s.<\/p>\n
– We aren’t good enough to waste timeouts and fumble the ball (Elijah McGuire) when running\u00a0out the clock, that has to tighten up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
