A Levelheaded Review week 1 2024

[DenverChief]

Worthy is gonna make this offense exciting again. The jet sweep really showed off his speed and the blown coverage was just beautiful to see.

Kingsley really held up well in his first start gave up a sack but overall was a good performance.

Pacheco has really upped his game - those jump cuts he uses now are just nasty.

J Taylor and his false start penalties again. Really hope he can get his early jumps worked out.

Chris Jones was feasting on a young inexperienced Ravens Oline.

The DB's didn't look as bad in this game as in the pre-season. The LB's (Bolton) were made to look silly a couple of times. I'd like to see some of the big gains cleaned up but I think a lot of that was all the time Lamar had in the pocket trying to contain him. Not super worried about it.

Connor had a couple of big hits and just missed getting an INT. I think his eyes got too big on that dropped INT and dropped an easy one.

Lamar was their whole offense and we still struggle to contain a super mobile QB - BUT I'll take making them into basically a one weapon team.

Hardman was a good choice as a PR/KR.

Juju was out there making some good blocks and almost had a TD.

Rice is gonna feast over the middle this year.

Starting the season 1-0 is great. Next week is going to be even better. I think this team is back to boat racing teams in scoring and turning them into a one dimensional offense trying to keep up.

Frustrating.

Free Worthy! Trade him to a team that will use him!

Put a sock in it for ****s sake

A point that is much more important than it seems on the surface. That attention to detail by the coaching staff and players is the difference between a Super Bowl team and a “good” team.

The Ravens were completely off schedule in the 1st Quarter due to the LOS penalties. Harbaugh was losing his mind instead of putting his team in a position to succeed. Had the Ravens not shot themselves (repeatedly) out the gate, the game might have been a bit different.

It was a flipping “point of emphasis” this season. Andy and coaches for reading the message and coached ‘em up accordingly.

While both of their passes could have been caught with a great effort, Patrick was a little off on both.

The pass to Pacheco on the wheel route was a little to hot and a line drive.

The throw to Perine wasn't great and needed more loft.

IMO, the throw to Perine was not a good throw as it led him a just a shade to much. That'll get better as Mahomes and Perine practice together more.

Correct.

I put the Pacheco drop 50% on Mahomes. He should have taken a little bit off it, but he was a bit amped up I think.

The Perine throw was just bad timing, which will get better with more practice. Maybe Perine wasn't where he was supposed to be, but that looked mostly on Mahomes.

Mahomes didn’t have the greatest game. He was off on several throws and the int was a bad decision. It would have been a great game for a normal qb. However, mahomes standards are a little bit higher.
