Our D had nothing left because the Ravens TOP was 34 minutes compared to our 26 and its September - they haven't played a full 60 minute game to this point. |

Feel much better about the DBs than the DL. The pass rush was Jones and...that was it. Yes Lamar is slippery as all hell, but the rest of the DL was very average. They'll improve but it's the one obvious area the team needs more.

Two touchdowns on three touches in his rookie debut? Sheeeeeeit |

1. We did allow Jackson to run all over but in part that's because our d-backs were doing a great job of covering receivers. Jackson wound up running because there were no open receivers so he would take off. That is encouraging in part because few QBs can run like Jackson. To cover their receivers does leave open Jackson rushing but we forced Jackson to beat us by throwing instead of running. And as seen last night, he couldn't do it. 2. Andy does get too conservative. A prime example was punting on Baltimore's 40 when we needed 5 yards. Our defense was setting the tone against Baltimore's offense and so you punt? We only 'gained' 20 years, hardly enough to make a difference. He should have gone for it. 3. Frustrating to see dropped passes. 2 drops, 1 by Rice and 1 by Shuster-Smith, made a huge difference in this game. 4. O-line was wobbly at the tackles. We did well running between tackles but our tackles were the worst part of the O-line. Not a surprise. We have Taylor on one side and a rookie on the other. I think Kingsley did pretty well considering he's a rookie but overall, while they were 'wobbly', they weren't bad and O-line performance tends to improve over the season as they get used to playing together. 5. Our offense is fast. Just adding Worthy made a massive difference. When Brown gets back on the field, the rest of the NFL should be terrified. We just need Andy to keep his foot on the gas until the game is truly out of reach. 6. I do wonder about the interception. I read somewhere that pass was tipped. Is that correct? Didn't see it at the time and I watched at a local pub so sound was down on the game. All in all, it was a good win over a good team. Yes, Baltimore made their fair share of mistakes but so did KC. Baltimore is one of the best teams in the league and on a short list of teams anticipated to go deep into the playoffs. The difference between teams at this level is frequently miniscule. I mean, the game winning difference in this game was about 1.5" of toe. I think this will be a good year. |

I'm not very concerned about the DL right now. I'd expect the edges to improve. Wharton looks to have made some strides. They were having some success with rushing just 3-4 at times.

It was also a good job by Andy and the staff getting the OL to set properly. Harbaugh apparently didn't get the message.

I thought Wharton might have been our second best DL guy. I'm looking forward to Cam Thomss getting up to speed, Omenihu coming back, and Nnadi being fired into the sun and replaced by absolutely anyone. We just need bodies.
