Winners and Losers from Miami game

[Sam Mills Fan]

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.

The entire D. I absolutely HATE our D. It is Turgovac 2.0.

[SorthNarolina]

We still seem to be playing really basic schemes, i think it has to do with miami and the giants being future opponents.

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.

[ItsNotGonnaBeAlright]

The fact that, even though they were obviously loading up against the run in the first quarter, DWill still managed to burn the first stringers for a touchdown makes me happy beyond explination.

[God]

Anyone think if Dan Connor continues to play well he might take the starting job from Diggs?

[joemac]

I hope so....they need to get Connor on the field. A starting LB core of Connor, Beason and Davis makes me happy.

Winner

Nick Hayden

He went from ungodly bad, to just bad.

Was he ever around?

Loser- the starting O-line. Pre season or not, they should be the strength of the team, especially when it comes to run blocking. That TD run was all DeAngelo.

[Mother Grabber]

I'll bet we get to see Conner start next week. Even if Beason isn't really hurt, I'm thinking they use it as an excuse to sit him. At least he'll be very limited and Conner will play some vs the 1s.
