Is it jus possible that we’ve FINALLY found a potentially good passing O?
Other than 2-3 plays, I thought Andy Dalton had his best day as a Saint ( and actually one of the best in his career!). With a banged up O line, he went more with the short, quick passing game.
N it worked! Side note: no big surprise to me here! Like Drew said back ina day, “Completions are good!
But IMO, in this game, Dalton found n stayed with his “core” of receivers: CO, AK, Juwan n Jarvis! They combined for 15 of his 22 completions n all three of his TD passes!
All four are really good n know HOW to play! All 4 are capable of winning against man coverage, but also know how to find holes n “sit down” against zone.
Along wit AK n CO. it was great to have a healthy Jarvis back! He’s physical n a walking “first down” ! This is exactly why we brought him in!
But perhaps the “best kept secret” of the group is Juwan Johnson! He’s blossoming into one helluva pass catching TE! He’s only got about 31 catches for 350 yds. But in the last 5 games, he’s caught FIVE TDs! N u can see he’s playing with confidence!
6 games left. And the way the NFC South is looking, who knows, maybe we still have a chance!
We’ll see
