They averaged around 34K in their two SatMats last year, not that much of a drop. You said 25-30, they still went over that. Let's not act like they just turned into Memphis/Michigan here.

Speaking of over, next score does it.

Good call (short on the 1), but total miss of the facemask. Yeah, I think I'd be for adding a challenge next year.

I think STL needs to avg 35+, they are there now - unfortunately like alot in life the best have to well over perform for the organization.

Avg 35K at StL needed to bring up the avg and extra $$$

Terrible game for Pearson

Helped lead to missed opp in the second quarter by giving up yards, now fumbles here going for more. StL should have the 40 right now.

And Sage Surratt not having much better. Whiffs on a chip block that gets Cookus taken out, now flubs an easy third down conversion.
