I went back and rewatched the game and a few things stuck out to me:
1. On the play where K Martin is interfered with, he showed me something. Instead of hopping up and down and making a throw-the-flag gesture, he just calmly looked at the ref with body language and face saying "WTF!" And he got the call. This will work a whole lot better than trying to show-up a ref... They say he's a quiet type, all business like AJ so, IMO, he's looking like a really good pick character-wise so far. I don't think we've really seen his explosiveness or game-changing ability that they talk about, yet.....
2. Early 2nd quarter, Cushing gets roughed up. From then on out, you can see him after every play: he puts his hands on his hips, looks at the ground slightly bent over and gets ready for the next play. You could tell he was hurtin'. He does this for several plays.... at one point, I think someone asked him if he was OK and you can see him nod his head. He's a tough son-of-a-gun but man, they need him for 16 games this year.
3. Dobbins has been outstanding. I want to see him on the field a lot this year.
