I was at a sh*tty bar today with all Pittsburgh fans screaming their head off every time that overpaid RB that used to play for us ran for 3 yards, so my viewing conditions were not great. Therefore I couldn't really tell who was in on each play unless they showed better angles of the plays on replays. Did Norwood play much outside of the INT play? Did he have any other targets before that? That was a horrible horrible drop that should have been a TD (thankfully Philly didn't drop that TD either, I was worried there) but I gotta give him credit for sticking with the play and running the DB down and getting the forced fumble. Still have a lot of hope for this kid. And once Funchess comes into his own and we get KB back our WR group could be very formidable with KB, Funch, Philly, Ginn and Norwood. Discuss.

Our passing game is gonna be a lot like Seattle's this year. Somebody just step and make the play when their name is called. Nobody is gonna get close to a 100 yds in a game outside of Olsen but he will doubled all season so whoever is getting it thrown their way has to make a play, that will determine offensive success.

No doubt.  They guys made the plays when they needed to.  Just made it hard to watch at times.

All our receivers are going to have to do better. Once we get to the meat of our schedule, we are not going to be able to basically cruise to victories on glorified cruise control because better teams will score more points.  Lord forbid that we are forced to play from behind because we need the pass to set up the run as better teams are going to respect our passing game less than suspect teams like the Jags and Texans.

I agree. I'm kind of disappointed in Funchess. I know he's a 2nd round rookie and they all won't be like last year's draft class, but still. 2 catches in 2 games is disappointing to me. Hopefully he'll continue to improve throughout the year. And Ginn is just way too inconsistent. But you gotta give Philly some credit. He had a solid game against a good secondary.

    • Bryce has been in the NFL 3 years and still looks like a very mediocre QB. Most games are nothing but mediocre plays with a highlight reel every now and then.  He is a very INCONSISTENT QB and it’s very fustrating. He does not deserve a 5th year option, even though the Panthers and all the dumb asses in the front office will give it to him.
    • I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two. 
    • Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
