h3QUARTERBACK/h3 Grade: B Comment: Jake Delhomme turned in a gritty performance, personified by his 9-yard run for a first down with less than two minutes remaining that allowed Carolina to run out the clock. He mostly threw the ball well and didn't allow his lone interception, which led to a Redskins' touchdown, to discourage him.p/ h3RUNNING BACKS/h3 Grade: C minus Jonathan Stewart ran extremely hard and effectively in the fourth quarter after not finding much running room early. DeAngelo Williams had a costly fumble on the first play and ran hard thereafter, but couldn't break free for a long run. Fullback Brad Hoover nearly scored but fumbled the ball into the end zone for a turnover.

Only one I agree with is dline and linebackers.

Quarterback gets a C+. Started out with an F, second half brought it up to a C

Runningbacks get a C. Started out with an F, Stewarts hard running brought it up and was a key part of winning the game.

Receivers get a B+. They caught almost every catchable ball. Rosario and King are turning into some excellent pass catching tightends, even if they don't get used enough.

Oline gets a C-, as they did pick it up later and protected Jake relatively well in the 4th qtr.

Secondary B-. Not great coverage, but we blitzed a lot so there was a lot of one on one coverage. We didn't get burned for a big one.

Special teams gets a B. Kicking was excellent, and Moore's run sparked the comeback, and of course the whole punt thing. But they were rough at the start.

    • it helps that Bryce and Tmac worked out a bit this off-season before the draft and are familiar with each other's game from way back.  Sure Bryce put in a good word for him to the coaching crew ahead of time That california connection goin' work, I hope
    • Sign but make it mostly incentive driven contract
    • My biggest problem is I think the players he likes don't really work in the modern NFL.  You mentioned the wr room being a lot better, is it?  It has the potential to be.   Last year when we traded up to get Legette, they said they traded up to take him specifically because he was a true X receiver.   Now this year they take TMac because they say he is and that XL was out of posisition last year.  Im not sold on Tmac yet just like I wasn't sold on XL last year.  If TMac isn't a lot better than last XL was last season then that's back to back first rounders in one position that would still need a huge amount of work.  Hopefully Tmac is what everyone seems to think he will be, I'm just not so sure, but them declaring XL was a true X receiver after the draft last year and what they're saying now should at least give you pause about their receivers evaluation because it means they definitely made a mistake one way or another.
