Duds : 1st half Packers
Semi-Studs : 2nd half Packers

To say everyone sucked (beyond the kicker) is just disingenuous. All had moments where they were studs and duds today.

Studs: ?
Duds: Officials for not calling viking holdings
#1 Packer priority, find a clutch kicker, NOW!!!
No more crucial losses due to missed FG's.

Studs: XM, and ironically it was a really good game from Whelan lol (unfortunately)

Duds: WRs with the drops, nonexistent pass rush for first 40 minutes, Nixon repeatedly getting victimized, another failed attempt to find a decent kicker, and yet another big game where the opposing coach catches LaFleur with his pants down

there were some good in the dark cloud.
Jacobs rushed for 5.7 per.
Jacobs finally caught 4/6 for 27 yards
Our RB’s would’ve averaged 5.5 yards per carry had that Wilson 23 yarder not been erased by penalty. This was supposedly the NFL’s top Defenses by some accounts (certainly rushing D). Had we not gotten behind on score very early in? our O could’ve put up 150 yards rushing easily imo and I might be low on that.
469 yards and 29 points on a Top 5 Defense


Stud:
Jayden Reed 7/8 139 yards 1 TD
McKinney 4 INT in 4 games

I noticed that there were no duds there, optimistic, I like it. Things could be worse, but if we keep that kicker, then some ppl need to go.

Duds:
In a first game back I don’t blame Love as much. He had to shake that rust monkey off, but once he did he lit up the scoreboard. 22 unanswered points in ~20 minutes of gameclock to get us 28-22. I’ll give him a mini Dud for forcing it a little too much.

Dud: Narveson. Not sure if the game isn’t too big for him. At best we should bring in a Kicker to compete. If he has 1 more game like that without stringing a few clean games, he’s gone.

Sloppy Flags everywhere. We had 6 flags in the first half alone.

Love's 3rd INT was extremely bad though, not going to give a really big pass on the others also, as he was throwing into double, sometimes triple coverage there.

My biggest bust is that kicker. It got so bad MLF didn't let him try an onside kick. WRs dropping passes. Love rustier than hell.

But we can't just dismiss the fact they came from the dead and made a game of it. Xavier looks like a keeper. We bottled them up some in the second half. Had our crappy kicker made one of those FGs we are having a different conversation.

Yeah. Well guess what I mean is he threw the ball 54 times after missing 2 games. Thats a lot of forcing it. I think we’d both agree that 1 less INT and he put us squarely in crosshairs of a W.

Eventually clock is an issue. Yet that quick INT after the big Wicks catch in MN territory (MN34)really hurt. We had plenty of time really could’ve even killed the 2 minute drill with a Run there. A score outside 4 minutes and it’s 0-2 score with 3 Clock stops. 6:13 on the clock should’ve switched gears back to a traditional playset. I get it though it was working. Just didn’t need it all in 1 chunk. Practice living to see another down there.

Washington picked up their kicker Seibert after week 1..he has not missed a kick fg or pat in 51 attempts. Hopefully they can find a guy like that!
