Well, that staunches the bleeding. We're 7-0 at home which is pretty damned impressive. Well, here it goes.
The Good
A Win-For a while it looked like this team was toast. On the Charles run, I never saw so many half assed tackling efforts in all my life. But the defense regrouped(even though KC had a long TD drive later in the half) and clamped down and did their job.
7-0 At Home-I've been a fan of this team for a long time and I don't ever think this team was 7-0 at home. At least to my recollection.
Kerwynn Williams-Where has this guy been? First 100 yard rusher since...I need someone to remind me because I don't remember.
2nd Half Defense-Shut down KC in the 2nd half and made a game changing turnover and a game sealing turnover in crunch time. That and they held Charles to about 28 yards aside from the 63 yard run.
10 Wins-First time this team has had double digit wins in back to back seasons since 1975-76.
The Bad
Timeout Management-I know Andy Reid was across the field but did we have to manage our timeouts like he does? Thankfully we held onto one long enough or that review/turnover late would never have happened.
Charles' 63 Yard Run-Worst example of how to tackle someone that I've ever seen. Dan Williams was especially pathetic on that run as he seemed to just bump him with his chest instead of getting his arms on him.
Long 3rd Down Conversions-Happened a lot in the first half, especially on KC's 2nd TD drive. You simply cannot let a team who has 3rd and 19 to get a first down and expect to win.
Red Zone Play Calling-We mix run and pass to get there. 1st and goal on the 8. 1st play, Stanton rolls right, no one open, runs for 3 yards. 2nd play. Stanton rolls right...and if he kept on going he moonwalks into the endzone but instead he throws a screen left that loses 4 yards. Then a sack and near fumble. I swore Whiz was calling plays on that.
The Ugly
Chandler Catanzaro-Ugh. He started off well this season but he quickly morphed into Neil Rackers and is heading into Neil O'Donahue territory. Next is Novo Bojovic territory followed by *shudder* John Lee.
That's it. Short week to play a very hot Ram team.
