Sorry but I'm not feeling optimistic going forward.

I think you may be selling this win a little short. It was against a quality opponent, very likely a playoff team. Wins like that aren't always going to be pretty. We shut down one of the top rushing teams and held them to under 100 yards. We also limited Cam, won the turnover battle 3-0, and probably most importantly bounced back after an ugly loss on a short week.

Yes, it was a great win. What’s concerning is Alex Smith looks unsure, holds onto the ball. We had 2 great opportunities inside the 50 before 1/2 time and got nothing.

This was so aggravating. Smith wasn't good yesterday, but he was under pressure too.




The second 4th down call was a terrible sequence by Jay. It was 3 and 4....Jay should have run the ball there first if he knew he was gonna go for it on forth. Instead he took away the entire run play book on 4th down.

If he would have just run for a yard or 2...shit we were avg OVER 4.5 yard per carry...then we would be facing a 4th and short and could have come up with a better play.

The second half offense is very worrying.

Yes plenty of room for improvement from Smith

We are winning and still improving. This is a good sign. It would be worse if we were losing and not improving. If we clean up a few things, it will get better.

Totally agree, right now he's giving us enough and most importantly he's not turning it over.
