[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 1005741, member: 10086"] Let me begin by saying that I’m pretty excited and pleased after that first game. Sometimes in my critique some take it as a slight when it’s not meant that way at all. Every team is increasing or decreasing in productivity or efficiency against the league. Rarely does a franchise remain stagnant with few exceptions. I can’t judge a teams velocity either direction on just 1 game. I can state basic observations or my opinion compared to what I see around the league in real-time. That said. Love did start a little slow across the first portion of the game. Like many QB’s he needed time to find some rhythm and he found it in the 3rd Qtr and then his play escalated. However I’m going to temper expectations as the Bears were the [B]LAST[/B] ranked scoring Defense last season. Also I’m keeping in mind how we scored as Defense scored 7, so we really put up 31 points. I also factor field position and how did we perform based on what we were given if an average game is C grade field position? We were B grade. Mathematically I deduct 3-4 points which attributed to favorable (not excessively) Field position. I’ll factor in that we are relatively green and missing our most experienced WR. So I’ll add back in 2-3 points there. In effect. We scored like 29-30 points against at best a below average Defense. That’s not bad, it’s just not something I’d personally use as a metric to insinuate anything but a good, solid but leaning slightly above average performance. I’ll give this a B- on Offense considering C is an average grade. This isn’t a draft “feel good” grade where everyone gets a B+ average, so that’s not a bad grade, it’s an above average score. Against a better Defense? that was more like a 21-24 point type performance which isn’t Terrible and it isn’t Great. What I did like is with each snap our guys get experience and with that comes confidence. I read that with Luke I could just tell he got that taste of the Paint even though he never finished. He knows he messed up and he knows that ultimately his personal goal is that goal line. Once Luke has timing he’s going to be a load for someone to cover. He has a Jimmy Graham potential ceiling once acclimated. Now I’ve heard that opponents will get game film and suddenly we will hit a wall. While that’s partly true it doesn't factor the offset. That offset is WE get film too. We review and adjust and the idea is to clean up our weaknesses, not replicate them for other teams to abuse us. Each player is a moving target and either getting better or getting worse. However with largely inexperienced players? I’d argue their arrow is mostly pointing up because they have lots of areas of growth. [/QUOTE]
