re: Give your team grades for the performance last weekend

this is based only on what I saw from the upper reaches of Jerry World. Admittedly could change after I watch replay tomorrow.

QB: C+. Did not turn the ball over, hit some key passes, and managed the game well. I even considered a B- grade here. Stats were poor but I think he played better somewhat than his stats and he certainly could have benefitted from a few more first down pass calls, fewer drops, and 40 yards on the called back completion to Beckham (which was an overthrow). Lee is going to be asked to do more in some games later this season, but he did what was needed in this one.

RB: A- Only the fumble and what appeared to be a little bit spotty pass protection prevented an A. (I did not think the the RB's looked quite as dominant as the OP, and I hold back A+'s).

WR: C- - Did not see much in the way of separation on many plays and too many drops. I look for this unit to have much better days.

OL: A. Outstanding game. I considered an A+ but didn't see quite that level of dominance.

DL: A+. DL looked beastly.

LB: B. Lots of speed and some sure tackling.

DB: A+ - Like the OP, I do not fault them for the meaningless yards in the 4th. This bunch is good.

ST: A- - This is a very high grade for a team that didn't return all that well, missed a FG, and shanked a punt. But there were so many excellent plays.

Coaches: A. 'Nuff said.
