Besides almost getting him decapitated, all of their plays together seemed pretty well timed and in rhythm. What do you guys think of this connection? Will Dede be #7's go to guy? Or will someone else like Lee or Conley emerge as the go to guy?

I think he'll be his guy for the year. But at some point he'll have to mix it up to avoid defenders teeing off on him like they did last night. Westbrook is tough as nails. That's not the first time he's been clobbered over the middle and popped up like nothing happened.

I think we'll see more of those 50/50 balls for Conley and Chark this year because of the height advantage. But Westbrook and Lee will probably be the focal points in the receiving game for Foles. Excited to see Oliver out there at some point now with O'Shaughnessy too in twin-TE sets.

I already like some of the formations and plays they were running last night. It was just a small sample but this offense looks poised to be at least above average this year.

I personally think Dede needs to put on about 10-15 lbs. I understand that weight compromises speed, and speed is his main strength. But he gets absolutely destroyed by defenders. I think his route running is still a little raw but will still be good enough if he added some pounds. Who knows though. I'm no expert.
