The WR don't seem to have a lot of speed but that may have been the field. Both teams looked a little slow. The players looked much faster in the second game on the new turf in Hou.
With the number of TEs on the roster and the 3 headed RB group, the WR are(?) more complimentary. Proehl was really good, though. Looking at the stats, Seattle didn't run the ball enough this week.
I was hoping that BJ would win the starting QB job but was hopeful that Silvers could get the job done. I think he did OK but watching that fumble near the end of the game, made me wish BJ was in there. Even Silvers could have scored had he kept the ball (maybe he was trying to?), but I think BJ walks in.
Of course, we haven't seen him much in practice and only the one play at the end of the game, but his mobility should be a major plus in this league. Cardale Jones had enough mobility (and strength) to run a few times and buy time for his receivers to get open. I think BJ can do some of that as well.
He could also open up the run game. The Dragons ran well in limited opportunities but were very pass heavy. Some of that was because of the 12pt deficit but some of that deficit was because of the passing game (slippery field conditions didn't help). They have some good RB's,seem to want to utilize the TE (they have quite a few on the roster), and the receivers needed some help getting open. Get the ground game working and hello play action passes.
We'll see how Silvers ankle is doing, but it would be nice to see at least some of what BJ can do in a game.
. 9-1 is still pretty good!
