What are you talking about Scutter?
Only 3 of 8 teams that didn't play key starters in the preseason won. Most people know that Game 1 is rough regardless.
As for crow? What for?
I pointed out that we should be able to win this one, for the reasons that transpired. (Except the part about Wilson trying too hard, that did not manifest).
I thought we might lose, but IF we lost it would be due to a BS penalty that changed the game.
A key penalty in a close game at the end can flip the outcome, and I picked it to be a close game.
Again, crow for what??
Because Geno had a good half? Did you not expect that?
He was playing a new defense with a new HC that had not played its starters for most of the preseason. Meanwhile he played significantly in the preseason. Now, that said, nobody expected him to be perfect for a half, or play as exceptionally well as he did - but lets not pretend that he was not going to be more in sync than the other team just because of those advantages in playing time.
Expect Geno to continue to play well for 1-2 more games, then defenses will likely be in sync and his advantage will likely dissipate. If that does not happen? Then yes, it makes sense to acknowledge.
(Also I picked us to basically be at .500 this year and not win many NFC West games, that almost implies that out of division games will have to be won.)
