Minshew needs to tighten up on the fumbles but that comes down to the oline continuing to improve and them all growing together.  Darnold had a bad game and a lot had to do with our d-line.  I can't believe that they didn't attack our linebackers.  It is hard to win in the NFL, I am glad we won back to back games as well.  It is exciting to see team football and the penalties being cleaned up.

I give credit to the broadcast crew on their reviews.  They showed our zone working effectively on multiple sacks.  It was a pleasant surprise to see assignment football actually working and the 4 man rush getting home.

Running a toss sweep on second and goal from the 1 foot line, when the toss sweep hasn't worked all year, is pretty bizarre.  But Marrone, to his credit, took the blame for that in his press conference, and admitted it was a bad play call.
