Davidson Deac II

Interesting question. Don't think I have heard it discussed before.

Fwiw, the receivers have played well today. No really bad drops, and they have mostly gotten open. Nice TD saving tackle by Joe Webb btw.

Heck of a throw by Cam. He really threaded the needle on that one. Now lets see if we can actually put some pressure on the Aints QB.

Need 6 here badly.

Steelers/Rams game delayed due to Turf Fire? Wtf?

I think that our coaching staff (and everyone else in the NFL) thought the Saints would run the ball more than they have. We have pretty much shut the run game down, but so far, they have been passing more, and passing well.

Good series of play calls, Cam probably should have run on the second down, and he overthrew the third down to Olsen. But the third down was a difficult pass even so. The Saints ability to move the ball easily is a little bit of a worry though.

I hope they are as bad as you say on the defensive side, but my paranoia keeps me from believing wholeheartedly. :) I just hope we get the run game (the running back portion of it) going this week. Btw, the Barb took his cue from Gunther Prien, the guy who snuck into Scapa Flow and sank a British Battleship.

I am not so certain that is what I want. If the Bucs win, it will give confidence to a young qb. A TB team with a confident young qb might end up being more of a threat to us this year than the Saints are. So I am good with whomever wins the Saints/TB game.

If Luke has to miss a game, this is one of the ones to miss. Houston's qb problems make them much less of an offensive threat. He needs to be at full strength when the Aint's come to Town.

Fwiw, only one guy said something really stupid. Here was Texan fan response to him. Yeah, it is just one guy. Here is what one of their fans said in response. Most of their fans seem fairly realistic, but I do think this will be a tough game for us.

What a terrible play by the receiver.

Aint over yet.

Struggling kicker with a long kick that only gives you a one point lead and three minutes left with a not so good defense? That seems like a no brainer in going for it.

Philly's d has picked it up this half. The int got things going for them, gave the offense an easy score. And they have held Atlanta to a pair of fg's. Still anyone's game though.

We have only played Chip Kelly's Eagles once.

Should have been another pick there. They got a little lucky.

Well, Matt Ryan trying to get Philly back in the game.

He did throw to Brown. Brown caught it.

Not really.

Hopefully Brown gets these drops out of the way in the preseason.

It was a miscommunication.

Gano might be the preseason MVP.

I sure hope Tillman stays healthy this year. If he does, we could have a really good secondary.

Doesn't seem to be enough to overturn.
