Preseason game 2 - who impressed who needs to get their ass cut

I sense this season like the past couple is gonna be focused on getting better and establishing an identity. Saying that:

looked good - Dillion Johnson, Trevon Wallace, Jordan Matthews, JT sanders, Coker (potential there) 

need to be cut: all the backup DL, Plummer, ISM.

Dillon Johnson showed a combination of speed, power and explosiveness we haven't seen at the RB spot since Stew. 

Never went down on first contact, decisive in his cuts and turned several 2 yard losses into 3-5 yard games. 

More importantly, he wanted to be out there. Looked like he actually gave a poo and wasn't just going through the motions during garbage time of the 4th quarter.

I would not think twice at putting him on the 53 especially if Brooks starts the season on IR.

I did not watch last night's game but from the sound of it I am frightened we will have another season where it's not even watchable play in person or on TV and that sure is disappointing. Still though I'm going to hope (yet be a realist) that when the starters come out, it will look like a complete different team. I think we are in for another rough season but not judging any players or coaches just yet till I see the regular season.

I can’t remember a game as boring and uninteresting as the one tonight. Oh yeah, last week’s game. 
 

I’m honestly worried about how detached I am from this franchise, what the fug.  On a bigger scale, it’s impacting my excitement for NFL football overall. First time I’ve been like this going back to day one, 1995. 

I want to tell you, I’m looking for what you said that deserves someone shitting your post. 

I think maybe you committed a Bryce Young thought crime.

It's so funny how most of the people claiming they didn't watch it or only watched a small part are commenting the most about how they feel about the game.   I thought it was fairly positive.  Much better than the first game.  No big offensive explosion but what do you expect with Plummer who looked bad in college and some oline players who signed to the team in the past couple days.

    • Btw... only Mitch fugging Marner has a better +/- than Key 🔑!!! And, Mitchy needed 5 more games and almost 100 more shifts to get there.
    • I was honestly flabbergasted to see Rod send out Stanky and the boys to to matchup against their top line to start the game. The reason that line has been so effective is because they've been matched mostly against 2nd and 3rd lines all year. You've got last change. Use it to your advantage.
    • Nobody played well on defense last night. But, the vitriol towards Chatfield (and to a lesser extent, K'andre) is bigly misplaced. People (not just you) just refuse to accept how bad Slavin has been this season. And, I get it. Canes fans (and informed analysts) have spent nearly a decade trying to explain to casuals just how good Jaccccob is at hockey. 4Nations happened and the hockey watching public started to listen. National media even started floating the idea of creating a new award in his honor. Then this season, he gets hurt. It happens. NBD. But, when he finally came back, it wasn't the same. He'll get back to his old self in no time. Probably just some rust, it'll be fine. Only, it wasnt rust, and he's not fine. He's bad right now. It wasnt just last night. Although, that was absolutely the worst game of his NHL career. Slavin (-4) currently has the 3rd worst +/- of anyone left in the playoffs. We've  been begging the world to recognize Jaccob Slavin's greatness. And, by the time we finally got people to listen, he shits the bed! I blame Kash!
