We were expected to win against the Chargers.....But more than that, I really like the way we’re winning. I’m not saying we’re gonna win the Super Bowl, but any team getting contributions from all 3 pareses of the game like that is going to tough to beat. Now on to the grades.
QB - B+ : A good not great day for Tua. Should have had a couple passes picked to be honest. He just seemed a tiny bit off yesterday. But I’ll say this.... If that’s an off day..... I’ll take that anytime.
RB’s - B+ : Gotta give credit to Ahmed. 81 yards or so and a TD. Not a bad game for a 5th stringer. Even Laird contributed. Nice job by this unit.
OL - B : As usual... Solid but not great job. The Pass Pro was good. The run game blocking needs to improve. They did enough to get the W.
TE’s - B- : Gesicki is so hot and cold it amazes me. One minute he looks like Baby Gronk, the next he looks like a PS guy. He needs to find some consistency. Smythe with a TD though.
WR’s - B : Parker had some nice catches. Grant played well. It’s such a shame Williams got hurt. We need a WR early in the draft. But, this wasn’t a bad effort by these guys.
DL - B : Not a ton of pressure all day but they played well. Stopped the run for the most part and made Herbert uncomfortable when they had to. I thought we missed Wilkins a little.
LB’s - B+ : I might get a bunch of flak for this, but Van Noy is our defensive MVP. When he got hurt, the Chargers started moving the ball. Coincidentally, when he came back in the game, they didn’t. Baker was active. Van Ginkel was good. Nice Job
DB’s - B + : Good coverage all day. X with another pick. Our safety play is slowly getting very good. This is a very good unit.
ST’s - F : Sanders missed a kick? HE SUCKS. What kind of football player goes 22 for 23 in anything? He must pick up his check every week with a mask and a gun. We need to cut him. OR...... I’m totally kidding. This is an A. Blocked punt. Good returns. Nice punts. Definitely a great effort by this crew.
Coaching and Front Office - A : Missing coaches and a player due to COVID and this team didn’t miss a beat. I actually felt like they were a little flat, but it didn’t matter. I don’t think anyone can question our coaching staff. Highly impressive. Again, I was wrong. I wasn’t thrilled about hiring Flores. I called Grier all kinds of names. The old saying is, if you walk into a room and can’t spot the idiot. It’s probably you. Well, I think I know who the idiot is now..... And it’s not Grier.
