Given all the guys who were out due to injury and international play, it really let some other players get meaningful minutes.  In his interview, Fuchs said in his speech to the players that this was there opportunity to show what they can do.  Obviously several stepped up.

Gaines really only seems to have the one move and at this point, teams have figured it out. He’s gonna dance and try and juke the defender before going to the end line for a cross. It’s so predictable at this point.

Khalina does so great at stopping shots but turns into a tater when the ball is at his feet and the other team presses him. He really needs to work on quicker and better decisions.

I like Bender but he needs more time and training to reign in control of his body. He’s constantly losing balance, inconsistent first touches, but he’ll be a force the longer he plays

Back line seemed to have solidified a little. It’ll be interesting to see if the attack gets any better with Swiderski back

Would really like to see Jozwiak or Vargas get more time out on the wing. Gaines seems like a player who would dominate the USL but just provide solid depth in the MLS. Speed alone isn’t going to get it done.

Also agree on Kahlina, those types of mistakes can’t happen.

That was Bender’s worst game, he got bodied quite a bit.

I also agree about the defense. Walkes has been great back there beside Corujo. I do wish Fuchs had more speed because I’d love to have him at LB, I just think he’s too slow.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By frankw · Posted

      I enjoyed reading this thread and the usual banter that follows. The only silver lining I can identify right now is we do actually have a couple of young QB's behind him and we do have a nice roster on both sides of the ball built around the most important position. So if the team overall shows some promise but we still falter largely due to a lack of consistent passing output (again) hopefully the decision makers can be free to make the best decision for the team going forward after the conclusion of this upcoming season.

      I don't really follow the team anymore due to a variety of reasons and consequently have largely stopped posting but I agree that this is a lovely website and community. This forum probably kept me around for years longer than I would've stuck otherwise because of how difficult it was to stop checking multiple times a day. Especially appreciate how lax the moderation tends to be compared to a lot of places, the crew here does a great job. Out of curiousity I decided to try making a new account (solely for testing purposes) to see what exactly is wrong with the sign up process. The issue seems to be that it never sends you an account verification email, thus making it impossible to complete registration. This is likely something to do with the email server upstream, hope it gets fixed. Also, lol

      Uh oh, Nicole Tepper hugged him. In all seriousness though every time I see more about him my hopes get higher. Smart, great attitude, prototype size and measurables, and athletic. He could be a great one.
