So glad to see your grade on the OL. Thought they were the key to our win.

Excellent. I'll quibble with two things:
- Hard to rate the receivers that harshly given what they were thrown.
- McKinnis is a pure FR showing inconsistencies, but OK overall. He does have a leg when he hits it & expect him to improve with time.

A "D" was failing at my home. I agree with the other posters about the "D" for the WRs. - Not sure how you rate them that low with the poor passing. I also liked seeing Kengera Daniel getting the big stop on 4th down. He could be a player. Overall, I feel that we are seeing the team improve. Go Cats!!

Good breakdown. Especially want to amen the offensive line as well. The way they are working in some guys we weren't really expected to count on yet and doing so with guys playing multiple positions is impressive to me. I commented in another thread where I saw some of the big fellas running to the line and even dancing like the kickoff team waiting for the ref to restart after a timeout. This is all a good sign going forward.

But I'll pick some on the WR grade. Can't give them anything less than a C just for the fact they have so little to work with and how little they are really used right now.

And Stephen Johnson played bad but those two stretch out plays for first downs were HUGE In that game.

Would give WR a C. Timmons with a bad holding penalty on a long run. When Vandy went to one High slots were slow to recognize and confined to run post. Must convert to digs, in cut, like the 3 and 15 completion

Like most are saying it's a harsh grade for the WRs. Not much they could have done. They did block well on some runs so I'd give them a C at least. Maybe more.
