    Defense is easier to get going than offense, no surprise thru 2 weeks of camp it's the D winning these early rounds...

    Is Decker worse than Sharpe?

    Are Davis and Taylor going to make us worse?

    O-line get worse? Running backs get worse?

    I Hope to see improvement all throughout the preseason, but it is concerning that the only Defense we seem to beat is our own.

    It's not like we were an offensive juggernaut last year, and the new pieces(Davis,Decker) will need time to get over injury and gel.

    Three things concern me right now.

    I'm a huge Mariota fan, but you have to have some concern he's looking a bit rusty atm. He shines here and there, but not as much as I'd expect coming off last season...but it's early and he's had to focus on coming back from a physical injury. While a concern, I expect him to be fine.

    Our OL can't afford to lose anyone to injury!

    And lastly, our secondary is still a question mark. Heck, I'm not even sure who the best 4 are right now at CB and there are questions regarding our two S's. I like Byard's ability to come up against the run but he missed a tackle and probably should have missed another one on another diving swipe. If Byard is rotating up...that means either no help deep or Cyprien playing CF...which isn't his strong suit. And with Ryan getting beat early by basically a 'nobody'....that does not instill confidence.

    I am NOT concerned about our WR's and think we are fairly stacked. I expect Matthews and Decker to start until Davis is ready but I think Taylor will do a nice job in the slot until Davis is confortable. Or, we go more 2 TE sets and maybe split Walker out or at least stand him up. But once we have Matthews and Decker and Davis with Delanie at TE, gonna be a tough team to cover!

    Mariota threw 3 passes and completed 2 in his first real action back from injury. Not much to evaluate good or bad...

    If anything looked "off" it was the starting online..they played a little longer and didn't seem to be holding up very well.. But again, it's a few plays in the very first live action. If you expected huge plays and fireworks, you set yourself up for disappointment.

    Bahaha what did I say that got your panties in a bunch? "I hope we improve throughout the preseason", or "our new pieces will need time to get over injury(Davis) and to gel within the offense(Decker)"

    LMAO

    i really don't plan on considering this offense a juggernaut until Derrick Henry and Corey Davis have at least a full season as starters under their belts.
