Winners and Losers from Miami game


Sam Mills Fan

Recommended Posts

Winners

- James Anderson: He's had a fantastic preseason and continues to be all over the ball carrier.

- DeAngelo Williams: Because of the craptastic line play he didn't have much to work with, but he showed once again why he's the best back in the game on his highlight TD.

- Dan Connor: Similar to Anderson, he FLEW to where the ball was.

- Dante Rosario: Very active tonight. Nice blocks, nice routes, nice catches.

- Jake Delhomme: He wasn't spectacular, but he was average-to-good, which is the best you can hope for from him.

- Kenny Moore: Continues to impress. He looks much more comfortable out there than Jarrett who's been with the team for a while now.

- Everette Brown: Had a great sack, forced fumble where he flew by his guy.

- Captain Munnerlyn: Had some good coverage, good pressure on the QB, great punt return. Needs to work on holding on to the ball though.

Losers

- Secondary: They bumbled and stumbled their way through the night. Breakdowns in coverage and *everyone* missed at least one tackle I think. Godfrey looked horrible when he was in.

- Offensive line: These guys were wretched tonight. Geoff Schwartz looked especially bad similar to last week. I hope he gets cut.

- Ryne Robinson: It looks like he's being phased out. He doesn't have the return spot secured at all and his fumble might spell his doom.

- Julius Peppers/Dwayne Jarrett: Lots are expected from these two this year and they kept up their very lackluster preseason play.

- Nick Hayden: Well, at least he had SOME penetration tonight. He was just regular bad tonight instead of apocalyptically bad like last week.

- Josh McCown: Poor throws, lack of field awareness when he ran backwards into the end zone and fumbled.

Run stopping looked a lot better tonight too. Muched improved over the NY game.

Lehman also made sure people knew where he was plenty of times on the field.

Decori Birmingham showed his worth, but I still don't think there is a way he makes the roster.

Also, the crap line play was because they were stuffing 8 or 9 guys in the box on almost every play in the first half. We kept running, they kept stuffing. Expect a lot of that this year.

Dwayne Jarrett...were was he??

E.brown still did the spin move and it did not work. The run D was better when Favorite was is.but we still need a DT

and our ENTIRE oline needs to do better with the blitz from the 3-4..the 1string looked lost at times.

Was he ever around?

    • Having trouble finding all these articles saying the Raiders withheld information. Here’s the latest from Crosby’s surgeon: ElAttrache told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Wednesday morning that Crosby was "doing very well in the early part of his rehab and recovery from surgery to treat a significant meniscus tear and the related stress injury to the bone and cartilage in his knee. He is certainly on track in his planned program." "We truly respect the work of the Ravens' staff with Maxx regarding the contract physical exam. We also understand the challenge the staff faces when tasked to provide a future risk assessment based on an evaluation early in the recovery process," ElAttrache said. "This is especially challenging when dealing with an elite player like Maxx considering the level of commitment necessary for a team to obtain him. The timing of this assessment is unfortunate because the apparent risk will lessen as his recovery progresses and his return to performance over the next few months becomes clear."     So the Ravens excuse is the future risk assessment based on the physical, not that the Raiders withheld information. They found an excuse to save face publicly. They had the right to cancel the trade for no reason at all, but they’re trying to save face with the most acceptable reasoning they can find. I’ve heard and seen the Ravens getting dragged everywhere for this. You know what would be an easy way to put a stop to that if you’re the Ravens and the Raiders were actually the shady ones withholding information? Just come out and say that you were not given all the medical information. But they aren’t saying that. I guess they’re just taking the bullet for the Raiders just because?    Speculation indeed.
    • Two first round picks for a guy with very questionable knees who will be 29 this summer. Yes it is safe to say the Ravens got cold feet.
    • The salary cap is the reason we got Phillips and Lloyd
