- With Reggie Bonnafon and Rodney Smith injured it will come down to Trenton Cannon vs Spencer Brown for the final RB spot

- With the Shi Smith injury Brandon Zylstra and Keith Kirkwood are now the 5th and 6th WR's 

- John Miller was pulled for Dennis Daley who should be starting at RG

- Christian Miller had 3 tackles but could not get consistent pressure on the QB and won't make the team (might have trade value)

- MLB Clay Johnston over currently injured Josh Bynes 

- Sean Chandler and Sam Franklin our new backup safeties 

- With AJ Bouye being suspended first 2 games Myles Hartsfield makes the team as the slot CB/FS

Great observation. Haven't seen anyone else really mention him but he really flashed a couple times tonight. I know Smitty brought him up a few times and he's one of those guys who's name keeps popping up when you read practice reports. Good to see him play well.

Feels good to end the pre-season on a win. There were a lot of good but several bad things. Like Rhule said, the win doesn't mask the bad. I'll take the win though, for moralities sake. Darnold just needs to get the jitters out early and he'll be fine. He seems to have a grasp of the offense and has the talent. This defense is what I am giddy about. If they have multiple turn overs each game then this team might be able to stay in games until the offense gets their poo together.

Didn't realize he had a clean pocket for 17 passes... OL played better than I thought lol.

Those numbers definitely include the one drop, and I think one near interception was out of a clean pocket too.

Yep.  That one near INT could've been disastrous and changed the entire attitude of this entire board toward the negative (though some were already on the verge of that anyway).  Fortunately, as Smitty pointed out, LB's cannot catch.     Regardless, the clean pocket overall showed how effective Sam can be when he's not running for his life.

I had Paradis as giving up two sacks and 1 TFL.

Paradis was getting run over.

      Greg Cosell on Bryce Young

      Bryce has been playing the best ball of his career the last three games IMO. He wasn't the reason we dropped the game in NOLA. Seattle's defense will be his toughest challenge yet this season

      Are the Panthers a "Trap Game" for the Hawks?

      By SOJA · Posted

      I'll be at the game Sunday and up until last year I had a perfect attendance record. Now however I have seen us lose to the Chiefs (last year) and the Bills (this year). So we can no longer rely solely on my ability to pound overpriced beers to propel us to a win.

      I haven't been able to watch Seattle on a dedicated basis but the Seahawks are a much better team by the all accounts: eye test, record and DVOA. Defensively they are sick. Best DVOA in the league first in rushing and second in passing. Offensively their passing game has been on fire this year led by JSN I can easily see this being like the Buffalo game where things just get out of hand for us early, that being said this league really is week to week and Seattle does have the disadvantage of traveling cross country for an early game.  If and big if, the Panthers are able to effectively run the ball and limit the amount of time Seattle's offense has to generate explosive plays we have a path to winning this game.  Seattle fans won't be happy to hear this but bad Darnold is always lurking in the background. He is truly an enigma to root for bc he will have an incredible throw that only a few people can make but then will turn around and throw the most bone headed pick of all time.  I think ultimately we drop this one as ultimately it's human nature to be looking forward to that week 18 game. But man how special would it be to be leaving the stadium on Sunday with a win and a miracle dolphins upset
