Yes, it's concerning that Skyy didn't get more targets, and that he couldn't come up with a single catch, especially since he's been projected as this year's "WR1." But Pat did throw a ball well behind him for one target and overthrew him for another.

And yes, it's unsettling that they performed so poorly against what was a bottom 5 defense last year, but DET did bring in 4 new DBs to upgrade that defense, so they were going to be better than what they were last year. Although the clips I've show that they didn't play all that well either, but probably they were better than what they were in 2022.

i really think the offense had itself a kind of collective brainfart. In other words, I think that won't happen again. At least not as bad as that.

It's a young inexperienced group, and they're going to have some clunky performances, similar to the Chiefs defense did back in 2019 to start the season. Fortunately, we'll get Travis back very soon, and he'll hide a lot of those issues going forward. Bottom line, I don't think we have anything to really worry about. Yet.


DHop would've caught every one of those dropped passes though.

I was with you right to the last sentence, but you had to get that in, didn't you?
