The line blocking was outstanding on run plays. But let's not get ahead of ourselves. Yes, we looked good. But it was still a preseason game. And it was also a preseason game against the Raiders, who aren't very good.
Still -- I did see incremental progress last night. Davis had a false start penalty against him early in the game and that was about the only problem Alice had time to sit back and pick out targets. It was nice to see Alice checkdown to 1st, 2nd and 3rd receiving options. He did this on more than one occasion. And the line was just blowing open holes for our running backs.
Nice to see the progress. But it's still preseason. We've got a long way to go. I still think this is a two or four win team at best.
that's the way man, keep your hopes high and your expectations low.
