I really wanted to get the All 22 film, but Game Pass is being a pain. It appeared that Tennessee played a LOT of 2 deep press man yesterday and would it surprise anyone if our receivers couldn't beat that coverage consistently? We saw it too many times last year. Not having Funchess is a killer when facing teams that do that well.
Not having the All 22, I can't assess the full picture for Brissett. How were his reads yesterday? Did he work well through his progressions? Was he holding the ball longer simply because the receivers couldn't get open?
Outside of that, he has been pretty solid. 10th in the league in comp%, 3rd in TD rate, 9th in rating, but bottom of the league in YPA; however, Luck was also bottom of the league after two games last year. It's obviously too soon to make any judgments, but I'll just say that I'm encouraged after two games.
