Agreed. Most McC decisions so far seem good. Draft picks are promising and FA picks like Knighton, Francois, Goldson, Culliver, Paea -- all seem like a good moves so far. McC's rebuilt front seven has allowed us to avoid blitzing, Spec teams got better with new kicker and probably Ross. Not to mention the cuts have been smart -- cutting Amerson, Forbath -- sending messages to team.

But biggest thing is locker room, seems cohesive, everyone playing for each other and defending each other. Felt like with Griffin in there, it was always a circus with who said this, etc -- and now they're talking about playing hurt and going out to dinners together.

To be fair, even Griffin was encouraging his teammates. I love the fact that despite all the shit, he's still out there cheering everyone on.

Thought the playcalling was good for the most part.
They kept the run game going all game, even though it wasn't always easy.

I would like to see them run on 2nd down more though and not be as heavy handed towards 1st down runs. Gotta make the D respect the run even on 2nd downs. Would also like to see more balance on 1st downs, right now we're heavy handed towards run on 1st down.

Liked not having Roberts out there wasting targets.

Liked going to Garcon durng crunch time, key situations think of players.

Didn't like phasing Alf out of goalline carries.

Liked Crowder out there making plays.
