Well that's simply not true, though he was off on his throws last night at times.
But as far as the chemistry thing, even Dickenson was pretty blunt about his receivers not running routes correctly or making the adjustments after the play was altered at the line of scrimmage.
The only guy that looks like he is in tune with is Jorden and to a lesser degree with Huff. Though Huff screwed the pooch on 2 different routes last night as well.
Mayala and Sindani were terrible for the most part.
I do agree though that Mitchells arm strength looks considerably weaker than it has been in years past which leads me to wonder if his shoulder really is healed as they claim. he underthrew guys at least 5 times last night which led to 2 of his INT's.
Carey doesnt look like the same guy either but his Oline is not helping him nor BO, which was a concern from day 1 of camp and looks to be coming to fruition. Its simply where games are won and lost in this league, and this group thus far have been quite underwhelming.
Defense gives up some yards but they come up tough in the red zone. Losing Wall and only giving up 15 pts is a tremendous effort.
Going to be a long season though.
