Much more than i expected. I even let a few studs slide in the draft, like Dre Moore who i could have taken, to make this more challenging and only signed 3 big FAs. Biggest struggle has been all the injuries

My thoughts(in no particular order)
Another easy win. Both sides of the ball are starting to grasp the plays at a satisfactory level now. Run defence is just causing too much pressure for the opposing Qbs to recover. Conceding alot of pass yards but the stats look bad cause the opposition is always losing. Norwood 3rd straight 100 yd game after posting 47yds in the 2 games prior. Still one game behind the Bucs. Will post the standings after 12 games.

Very much.
Hasnt been getting the Ints i hoped for but was doing well especially in that game
Not much confidence in Houston and Lee as replacements. Been rotating them. They miss alot of tackles

[Sanchez_Mareno]

Injury Updates
Tamme 3-7 days
Samuel 4-9 weeks
Hills 1-3days
Hart 2-5 days
Abraham 3-7 days

That injury sucks. Hope the rotation at least covers until Samuel gets back.

My thoughts(in no particular order)
Running game came down with a crash. Still over 100 yards total though. Pass happy game this one. 45/58 for 680 yds combined. Relatively low scoring for all that passing success though. Uh Hills first game back and hes gone again. Guess im in the market for a LT as well next year. Chargers have Joe Flacco sitting as 4th QB
