Issues
Inaccuracy
Low throw on 1st drive
Low and outside on second drive
Overthrows Proehl in EZ
Maybe a DH or DPI
Threw behind a crosser
Behind on George Campbell TD
Underthrow on INT
Eyes

Hits D. Shepherd for 1st down
Proehl WIDE open on a corner route
Took eyes down and tucked on failed 2 ptc
Butler was open
INT
Greedy throw
Hill was open underneath
Proehl open in middle
Game sense
Feeling pressure that’s not there
I don’t blame him
2nd and 8, tucks thinking heat from right side
Get to the sticks
2nd drive, slides a yard short
Kudos
Crushing it on intermediate routes
16 yards to Butler
Deep ball to S. Mitchell
50 yd TD
Maybe 48-yard throw
No overthrows on Out Routes
Especially when it counts
64% completion
Almost clutching in Q4
Wide Receivers
Hakeem Butler
9/12, 86 yards
Only hit the ground once
Much better player than everyone who lines up across from him
21-yard catch
10 YAC
Didn’t matter bc penalty next play
2 drops
3rd and 11 scramble drill
Steven Mitchell

3/5, 30 yards
155 return yards
80 yards, 52 yards
Austin Proehl
3/5, 29 yards
Getting him in space
Caught the ball @ 9 yards
Quick feet took him 5 more
Always looks like he’s falling
Fact: You run faster when you fall
Bounces back from hit
Jake Sutherland

One was a screen for 0
Sure hands
George Campbell
1/1, 5 yards

Long 15
Very productive
Ran the wrong route on last drive
Mateo Durant
4 carries, 12 yards
Kareem Walker
1 carry, 1 yard
Offensive Line
BIG THING
This line is not good enough to consistently run the ball, except for Panasiuk
B. Hill’s talent gets him yards
Panasiuk as a lead blocker
The term “Run between the tackles”
Run next to the Center
Everyone got a penalty but Panasuik and Warmack
Steven Gonzalez
Hold
Away from the play
3rd and 1
Bushell-Beatty
Hold
3rd and 6 on DC 8
Called back a TD
Tries to stick DE with outside arm
Swatted immediately
Hooks him
Slow and Lumbering
False Start
3rd and 4
Fumble next play
He gets thrown to the ground
DE does a stunt
Fakes outside, comes back inside
Gets strip sack from behind
Vadal Alexander
Hold
1st and 10 on DC 45
Next play was a 6-yard sack
Bc of Magwood (the one I mentioned with BG’s schemes)
Blitzer gets free shot on QB
Got bull rushed and tossed on last drive for 8 yard sack
Eric Magwood
False Start
3rd and 5
To be fair, they cleaned it up in the second half, but the damage was done
Confirmed that team know they stink
After fumble sideline interview
We’re executing the game plan
The game plan is to befuddle the tackles
Offense as a whole
Offensive line lost the game in the first half
Penalties didn’t let them respond to TD run
Strip sack was an 6 point play
Second half was much better, line-wise
Not aggressive
Mistakes hurt them
3/6 drives with points
1 FG, 2 TD
2 punts and an INT
Not fun to watch, bc they were beat when they were doing well
Defense as a Whole
DC had 10 real drives
Scoring
2 plays on 2 drives
3 plays on 1 drive
14 yards after fumble
7 plays on 1 drive
Stops
Goal line stop
4 3 & Outs
1 drive that was 8 plays then a punt
Defense played well
Except for when they played the worst
Last in the league with 5 sacks
Carson Wells was tackling forwards
3 TFLs
Mike Hampton with 4 solo tackles
1 TFL
Breakdown of scores
Smith 62 yard run
Weak side run
Great blocking by the O Line
Smith squeezed through a really small hole
LG picked up a linebacker
DBs
B. Sebastian ate the cheese
Stayed on his route for too long
Crosser
Safety came up to defend a screen on the strong side
Turned on burners and almost made the tackle
Everyone took bad angles and couldn’t catch up to him
Smith 5 yard run
Short field
False start by Lacale London
2nd and 6 to 2nd and 1
Smith takes it in
Smith 70 yard run
10/11 people on D thought the ball was going outside
They all proceeded to get their ankles broken
Smith Cuts and goes straight up the hashes
C. Cooper is the only guy back there
He feels left out and gets his ankles broken too
Doesn’t come within 3 yards of Smith
Looks like he didn’t want to tackle him
I don’t blame him
Later on he did and got a concussion
7 plays, 65 yards
Starts off with a touchback
Ball on 35
Lucky Jackson
3 consecutive catches for 45 yards
What I thought was going to happen all game
Now the ball is on STL 17
Offsides by DE Tupou
Now it’s 1st and 5 from STL 12
D. King run it in 2 plays later
Ta’amu
