Few good points there, he really did look like the best blocker not wearing a jersey in the 60-70's. I don't remember what quarter it was, but there was one play specifically where he just goes and bull rushes a safety like 8 yards off the ball after this guy is just a yard or two away from being in a potential tackle. I was like, whoa, who is that?
On top of that, he did look open. He was supposedly pretty solid on his route running coming into the league, and I think that helped him a little going against the 2's and 3's. I want to see him play with the 1's a bit more in a deeper game (game 3) before I truly judge his "openness" but all signs pointed to this game saying this kid's going to work in the slot for us haha.

Speed, instincts and recognition, and pretty damn good in coverage.
And Malcolm Bronson was the best safety on the field in this game.

JMJ did look solid, and Malcolm Bronson was the guy whose name I couldn't think of. God he was all over the place trying to find the ball.
