It sucks we didn't make the playoffs, but we're still in a far better position than we were a few years ago. They'll get this team right and ready to compete next year.
On today's game, I was impressed by Williams and Long at CB. I know some will point to Long giving up some big catches, but he was right there in coverage. That's what makes me optimistic. He stuck to his guy all night. As he gains experience, he'll defend those plays better. NRC is a great slot CB, but I think we're okay if we move him this off-season.
On offense, OL still has work to do. They pass protected better than expected. Hat's off to Whitworth for containing Jones. But our biggest task this off-season is to add an upgrade or two on the OL. All in all, it was a decent way to end the year. Nice of Higbee to continue his breakout. Kupp, Woods, and Cooks are still studs. We should have a strong passing attack if Goff gets protection next year. He's still deadly accurate when given a decent pocket.
