What we lacked in pass protection, we also lacked in the ability to catch passes and run without falling. The game film was worse than the initial viewing, as if that was possible. The young guys failed to show up once they were called up.   

The defense played well.  

The refs missed some calls. The play where Patrick O'Connor was injured was particularly egregious given that Grant Stuard was flagged for hitting the kicker RIGHT BESIDE O'Connor, who was being held.  

The Carolina game will hopefully being a rebound. The Panthers are in shambles. Both Sam Darnold and Cam Newton will play. To what extent is still unknown. But the team is on a four-game lose streak, and haven't won at home game in five matchups.
