Liked. Big props to Darnold, didn’t think he had it in him

liked  the Panthers QB coach, he is a miracle worker, a helluva lot more than Brady

disliked. Trying to run Hubbard East West, can’t do it, too slow

disliked  Rhule or Brady favoring his draft pick over Freeman, 

disliked. Brady’s 4th and 1 calls and that end around at that time, Jesus.

Liked..............at the end of the first quarter the momentum of the whole game was going with the Texans but by 5 mins in the 3rd quarter the Panthers reclaimed it for the rest of the game.........also the QB sneak for a score......

Dislike.......using small backs for short yardage plays between the tackles..........ugh!

LIKED: We did not go conservative with our play calling. Trusted Sam to put it away for us, and the fact that he did that. 

DID NOT LIKE AND HAVE NOT LIKED SO FAR THIS FREAKIN SEASON: For some reason we are totally against spreading the offense out in the red zone. We do not have the line for these tight formations. Especially if we actually plan on running the ball straight forward.

This was the OL's worst game thus far.  We did better last two.

I think some of the bad OL play was just great defensive playcalling.

Lovie Smith is a savvy DC.  As soon as CMC went down, he dialed up the defensive pressure on Darnold.  Smith knew Darnold just lost his safety blanket so he went after him.  And, for a few series, the tactic was pretty effective.

LIKED:  The team's resilience when CMC went down.  Several players stepped up in the second half to keep the offense moving along and secure the win. 

 

DISLIKED:  The soft, prevent-defense playcalling on Houston's last drive of the first half.  It's a rookie QB in his first start.  Blitz him EVERY PLAY !

There may be a bit of that, but 3 out of 4 sacks were BEFORE CMC went out.
This was the weakest DL we've played by far,  according to PFF.  So either PFF is ass, or we played worse and I'd say  both.  

Sam may have been taking more time....it felt that way.

There still weren't  large holes to run through.

There's a reason Pat Meyer and Rhule chose Elflein over Daley.   

DT Blacklock tore up with a sack, a QB hit, and a FF.  He had a 30.2 pff last year.

    • Honestly at this point he would be looking at back up $ in my book
    • There is no amount of mental gymnastics that will ever justify making the statement "we won in spite of him". I could cite a number of games where Cam Newton, Jake Delhomme, Brett Favre, John Elway and plenty of others looked like horsesh-t for a significant portion of the game, but somehow still did enough to win. That's football. The facts are: Bryce Young is an NFL quarterback. Bryce Young is legitimately capable of winning NFL games. Bryce Young deserves credit for his part in all of our wins under his leadership. ... All of these statements are validated by the simple truth of what we've seen with our own eyes. Is there still a valid argument to be made that Bryce should not be made our "franchise" quarterback. Yes there is, and I would remind everyone in this thread that I'm one of the people trying to make it.  But... Those facts cited above cannot be discounted or disproved. They must be acknowledged, and any argument which doesn't loses touch with reality. And as a consequence of their validity, my attempts to articulate this argument become... ...significantly more difficult. I'll still make the argument, but that effort will not include any denial of the truth. 
    • 100% and I don't think anyone could argue that there has been a bigger supporter/fan of his than myself, so I'm not trying to talk down what he's done this year. But it's why I also have personally not brought up where he ranks in receiving yardage the last 2-4 weeks like a lot of people (and the team) has been doing.  As while I know it's "true" and a cool thing to talk about, I always knew this bye was coming and his slim lead over the guys behind him will cause him to "tumble" down those rankings coming out of our bye. Even finishing 15th in the league in receiving yards as a rookie would be a MASSIVE accomplishment, particularly when his QB only has 3 games all year passing over 200 yards.
