It was ugly for sure, but not unsatisfying.

Some good things from today . . .

- It became clear to me today that Smith can be better than just serviceable in this offense if he can get some pass protection.
- Crabtree looked strong to me considering his limited practice time. Can't wait to get Braylon back.
- Hunter earned some more playing time which will both motivate Gore and save his legs.
- The defensive back end played their best game. Big plays were limited, Green was held down and Carlos Rogers actually showed some ball skills.
- And the obvious one that it was an east coast road win. It was only Cincy, but it's a start.


We're still not taken seriously nationally and rightly so. We could make some noise by taking one of these next three against legit NFC playoff contenders before the bye. It's the next step . . . but it's never gonna happen if the o-line doesn't get their game together.

I'm excited for Philly !!!!
