DK's numbers would have been eye popping if it was Russ throwing him those deep balls and not Geno. The air Russ puts on the ball gives a big guy that has position like DK a chance to make the grab. The throws Geno gave him were horrid, IMO.
I do like what I saw from Jazz and the Ursua kid. I also liked what I saw out of Bo Scarborough. Disclaimer: I realize Bo played against mostly backups, and since his days at Alabama I have been enamored with him, but I did like what I saw. I can't say the same for Penny. His first carry there was a giant hole and he fell on his ass. His second carry the rookie LT got beat, but instead of doing what Chris Carson and Marshawn Lynch have done for this team, hit it and fall forward, he stopped his feet and got engulfed for a three yard loss. Besides one screen pass that was beautifully designed and blocked up perfectly, the guy did nothing. I know he has talent, but when are we going to see it besides on one or two break outs? I like the thirty and forty yard scampers just like the next guy, but we can't survive the multiple third and longs we are in waiting for it to happen because he can't consistently gain yards.
The defense was bend but don't break, but honestly I thought looked better than I had anticipated. I like the young LBs, and the Safety from Utah. I felt the defenseless receiver call on him was ticky tack. He actually stopped, turned his head and practically just stood there with his shoulder turned letting the receiver hit him! I guess the answer when a QB tries to get his WR killed is to destroy their knees? Or simply stand there and hope the guy doesn't make a leaping catch?
Special teams looked good...and the officiating was garbage.
