I finally watched the replay.
Watson was high and hard on a few. I'm not sure if that is just accuracy issues that won't go away, or maybe keyed up. Either way he seemed to make good decisions, just didn't put it where he needed to. But the pass to Foreman with an empty backfield was nice.
Plus when you have a running QB, it makes every RB better. Every time Watson handed off there was at least 1 defender accounting for Watson. I'm not just talking on zone read handoffs, even on regular handoffs the backside stays home every time. I wish we had Kubiak and the zone read offense to take advantage of Watson's mobility and resulting cutback lanes.
Ellington was very good. Backup DL was very bad.
