After an emergency re-programming of our BGO Supercomputer to account for Taylor Heinicke's stature and arm strength, we rebooted this week against the Green Bay Packers. Our mainframe had it's work cut out this week, trying to reconcile a godawful first half during which Heinicke did his best to make us pine for the good old days of Carson Wentz, with an exceptional 2nd half effort.
Heinicke finished completing 61% of his passes on the day, for 2 touchdowns, and 1 interception. One area Heinicke showed definite improvement on was mobility. With a little help from our cobbled-together offensive line, Taylor was sacked just a single time. Heinicke completed passes to 9 different targets on the day, including 8 each to both Terry McLaurin (who finally was significantly involved in the offense) and Curtis Samuel. Heinicke helped lead an offense that racked up 364 yds to Green Bay's 232, and which held the ball 37:07 to the Packer's 22:53. The Heinicke lead offense converted on 7/16 3rd down opportunities while the defense prevented even a single Green Bay conversion on 3rd down, a feat no defense has managed since 1999, and a first in Aaron Rodger's career.
On the day, our BGO Supercomputer awarded Taylor Heinicke a Hein-O-Meter score of 7.3.
We'll see which Taylor Heinicke shows up in Week 8 against the Colts.
