Thought the whole defense played well. They were put in some bad spots, but played well as a whole.

Lynch/Turbin carried the offense (+ OL on run blocking). The receivers did well in the parts of the game they could control (special teams, returns).

Simon, the fact that he didn't stick out is a good sign today.

He did look the part. I even liked the way he flipped the ball back to the official behind his back after the one catch for the (would-be) first down (that got called back, IIRC). I could get some sarcastic jabs for saying that... but, there are players that just have that more-elite control and coordination. He just looks smooth. Knowing his production at Alabama, I'm very interested to see how much more they can get him involved in the offense. I think Wilson should throw to him as much as Ben throws to Antonio Brown. Won't happen to that degree (I know) and we really wouldn't want the team throwing that much vs. running Lynch. Mean it more as hyperbole. Just would love to have a receiver with the skills Norwood seems to have gain the kind of confidence in that Ben to A. Brown connection. Yeah, Baldwin is fairly reliable. But, the Hawks just don't have that guy who strikes fear in defenses with consistent production. You never know what you're going to get each week with the rest of the guys. I like our receivers and they've been big for us at times, but I get more excited when Lynch is at receiver these days.

Cliff Avril had several hurries today, a couple hits on the QB, a sack, and another tackle in the backfield.
