[QUOTE="tynimiller, post: 1045846, member: 6578"] First thoughts after a quick second watch. [B]Studs - Josh Jacobs[/B] - like many of us said all along Josh Jacobs is a better all around RB...yes if he had Aaron Jones speed a few of his runs likely would have had 10 maybe 15 more yards on them but Jones wasn't getting through the first 4 or 5 yards. That touchdown run is the EXACT play why many of us hated losing Jones but LOVED gaining Jacobs. His jump cut is just nasty - NASTY. [B]Christian Watson[/B] - Yup. I'm going to say a name no one is likely to have noticed. A couple CRUCIAL (diving on one) drive continuing catches and fellas, every single WR drafted into GB should have to watch the blocking he illustrated in this game. He is already at this stage in his career a better blocker or at least as good of a blocker as Lazard was - which as many know is saying something for me. I still worry about the future decision on him someday coming but for now dude is special at what he does. Duds - [B]Tackling[/B] - Edgerrin Cooper and Bullard both stand out as guys that just flat out looked terrible at the point of tackle a few times....and truthfully Cooper deserved a DYNAMITE STUD for a few of his plays but couldn't put him there merely because of a couple of his blown plays, he's not a dud just mentioning him here as part of the overall dud of tackling. [B]Bullard [/B]- This is not his fault as much of a byproduct of losing Williams and him being shuffled back off of his best position (slot) to playing more safety. Everyone that watched him at Georgia knew his best place is in the slot, down closer to the line of scrimmage. Bullard isn't a safety...he's a dynamic slot corner with ability to slide to safety in coverages - there is a difference. [B]Defense inability to adapt to shuffling[/B] - Williams going down slid Bullard out of his best spot, it slid Nixon to slot more (which everyone knows I hate) and Stokes in...eventually Valentine in as well....communication and a feel for where everyone would be appeared to be a massive hurdle for this shuffle and Jags have way too good of a QB to not attack that.
