Yep. I saw at least 2 cases where we might have been called for running into the kicker, but in both cases the ref was watching and didn't make the call. The contact was minimal in both cases, and no call seemed like the right call to me although I held my breath a bit both times.

Good, strong game by the Cats. A few mistakes, but they looked well-prepared overall. Kafka was everything I hoped he would be in terms of accuracy and decision-making, and aside from one mistake, Persa looked strong as well. 

Receiving corps looked especially good, making pretty much all the catches.

And Arby Fields showed why he's worked his way up to the #2 spot.

Defense was certainly solid, although it's hard to evaluate them given the opponent (same could be said of the offense of course).
