There are a couple of things the team will need to clean up prior to the Lions game. Our running game was basically non-existent when we exclude JD's running yards. We really need to figure out how to get BRob going, and get our Oline to open holes effectively.

Evans abused Lattimore. We gotta figure out a way to get Lattimore comfortable in the system.

Evans didn't have a hundred yards receiving. Evans is also a future HOF'er for a reason. Lattimore was covering him without any help as well. Here's another thing: There were times Mayfield had to go in another direction due to Lattimore's coverage on Evans. He'll (Lattimore) be fine.

Count me in the group that is concerned about Lattimore thus far. Injuries and performance. Tampa barely had the ball in the 2nd half. That Mayfield fumble was killer. Evans did smoke Lattimore nearly every chance. Lattimore did better against AJ Brown but far from perfect. We need to get him going. He'll have lots of opportunities Saturday v. St. Brown, Williams, etc.

This is kind of where I am. It was definitely a one sided affair between him and Evans. I would like to chalk it up to rust. The doubter in me says he has played only a season and half worth of games over the last three seasons which is not a great track record.

Next year I need him to be on the field for all 17 games to consider this a success.

I also don't fault Peters for making this trade. Lattimore in the past is far better than any CB we have and would be further along than any Cb we draft. Using a 3rd and basically a 6th for a known quantity and a glaring hole on the team is a fair gamble.
