I really did this for myself so I could learn more about some of our guys. Bare with me, as much as I love sports, this isn’t something I do regularly.
1st drive
Offense
Good hard run by Miller
Nice catch and run by Kirklin, nice throw by Winston
Winston had a receiver wide open in the right flat for a first, panicked and threw it at Jimmys feet although he was smothered in coverage
Defense
Gorgeous D by Taylor on the punch out in coverage down the left sideline. Punt
2nd drive
Offense
Peat gets ran over on 1st down killing the pass play
2nd down bad drop by Kirklin
More bad protection on 3rd down. Free rush off the left edge
Terrible punt coverage by the gunner leads to a huge return (pretty sure it was Johnathan Abraham)
Defense
Nice play by Roach on 1st down
3rd down really bad coverage by Taylor leads to a first
Next play Roach and Bresee get demolished for a big run in the run game
Touchdown pass where Yiadom was kinda lost in coverage
3rd drive
Offense
Beautiful screen play and call. Peat completely missed finishing his block, Max Garcia was slow getting out and ran into Throckmorton and Shaq Davis got beat to the inside of the block, which all killed the plays potential
OL terrible on 2nd down for a loss in the run game
3rd down Kidd and Peat got destroyed again, Winston did a great job manipulating the pocket and could have walked for a first but chose to throw a bad pass in coverage. Incomplete
Great punt, bad coverage again for a decent return
Defense
1st down run of 4 yards right at Bresee
2nd, Bresee with outstanding pressure, would have been a sack but was held, drew the flag. Same play Roach caused a fumble that we couldn't get
3rd, Bresee forces a bad throw with good pressure up the gut
4th drive
Offense
Winston to Perry for 3 yards
Max Gracia gets blown up at RG on a running play that was otherwise blocked well. Loss on play
Winston hit Kirklin for a nice gain and a first
Throckmorton blocks no one killing a run on first down. Loss. He literally just stood around
Winston with a good throw to Davis on 3rd and 10. Threw it low where only his guy could get it
Back shoulder 50/50 ball thrown to Jimmy, perfectly placed by Winston to give Jimmy a great shot and Jimmy did
Kidd with more horrible blocking but Miller powers through it and gains good yardage
Jimmy just bullied a DB. Winston waited and allowed him to get position and Jimmy went all Jimmy for a td
Lux nails EP
Defense
Decent pressure on 1st down leads to inaccurate pass by Mills
Bresee and Roach pushed around allowing a good run
Third and short, good pressure off the left edge (J. Smith) and good coverage by Yiadom to get off the field
5th drive
Offense Haener in at QB
Miller with a nice run on 1st for 4
Kidd absolutely abused at tackle, Haener sees it and gets rid of it quick for a short gain to Baker
Haener with a wild throw on 3rd. Incomplete
Defense
Great play on first by Smith for a loss
Another great play by Smith on 2nd down in space
Foskey with great pressure for a sack. Bresee was there too but the pressure was all Foskey
6th drive
Offense
Haener to Kirklin on 1st for 8
Good coverage leads to Saldiveri
getting beat and leads to incomplete
1st down run on 3rd by Miller
No gain on 1st on short pass
Bad ball by Haener. Wide open guy for an easy 5-7 yards. Throws it well over his head
Haener with a great ball on 3rd on the run but Krull couldn’t keep his feet so falls short of the first
Stupid play call by the offensive staff gets a turnover on downs on 4th and less than a yard
Defense
Put in a short field by the bad 4th down call
Mills all day to throw for a big gain. Sewell lost in coverage but it was a lot of area to cover
Sewell makes a phenomenal play in the run game, comes up and fills the gap nicely
3rd and 8 and Yiadom is lost once again in coverage. 1st down
2nd and 6 great coverage and very good pressure by Cage
3rd and 6 J Smith lost in coverage, 1st down. In Smith’s defense it looked like he slipped a little
Middle of the defensive line is getting pushed off the line more and more as the game goes on
2nd down touchdown run but called back due to an obvious hold by the tight end
Absolute terrible coverage by Taylor gives up a big gain to make it 3rd and goal from around the 4
Bresee made a phenomenal play on 3rd and goal and almost killed Mills but Mills ducked out of it, Lalos gets the sack but it was all Bresee
FG good
7th drive
Offense 1:44 to go in the 1st half
Kirklin with a great kick return but it was negated due to a late flag
Great run on 1st for 12 by Prentice
Terrible throw by Haener on 1st, almost picked
Prentice runs again for 7
Haener with a dart to Krull
Kirklin with a terrible drop that would have set us up nicely on a comeback route on the right sideline. Throw could have happened sooner too
Bad late throw on 2nd as well
Haener had a touchdown possibly down the right sideline to Kirklin, but tried to thread the needle. A little more touch and he scores. Incomplete
Defense
Houston runs on 1st for a couple
Saints trail at the half 10-7
