Things I saw.

1. Offensive line really struggled today, and not just in pass protection. Been mentioned a lot already.

2. Really missing a WR that can go get balls.

3. Obviously not committed to running enough, and Detroit was able to play the right defense way too much.

4. No idea why NFL vets can't tackle, but defense really didn't lose the game today.

5. RG3 is still pretty amazing to watch, but he does make mistakes. In spite of the turnovers, played better today. So expecting more next game.

6. We still don't give up, but this defense really is lacking talent. It's been 4 years now under MS, where is player development. Also looking at the offensive line.

I'm thinking the offense will keep improving, but I had them at best as a 9-7 team this year. I kind of expected a step back, until the cap penalty went away.

Our return game sucks!! Thompson looks scared, doesn't have the passion on returns. It might be related to his injuries and doesn't want to get hurt again.
