Calm down there chicken little. Brayton had two sacks in the first quarter. We still don't know who is going to start at DT. The LB core needs time to gel. Our best corner isn't even playing...we had Munnerlyn matched up on Boldin. We'll be fine.

Gotta shake the rust out bro.

From what I saw I was thoroughly impressed. Although Captain needs to work on his technique before thinking he's starter material.

And hopefully Fox realizes that Beason needs to be in the middle, getting lost on basic level plays is something were not accustomed to seeing from Beast.

on the TD Captain actually had pretty good coverage considering he didn't have help. I think it was more of a slip than anything.

I was actually pretty impressed with D-line. Do need Gamble back, but I don't put too much stock in a bunch of cheap screen plays. Nice throw by Flacco, but wouldn't have happened with Gamble.

Only thing that really concerns me is O-Line... Matt Moore did pretty well given the time he had to throw and penalties. And while Duke Robinson might be a beast in the running game, he's going to get Matt killed on passing downs...

I dunno, I thought the first string defense looked ok. I don't like Beason playing outside, it's just wrong. It should be a rule in the NFL that if you're a pro-bowler in a certain position, you can never play outside that position. Unless you're used in different packages in those different positions. And our secondary was minus Gamble, but they shouldn't have been that bad though. They need a bit of work. Our offense needs more work at this point, but being minus 3 pro-bowl caliber players does kind of limit the amount of skill level on the field.

      Rookie minicamp

      This is a good story--I LOVED his dad as a person and player--I talked to him at an OTA (he was back for his second stint) and he was talking about Moore (the WR from Wake Forest) being so young.  I was with my teenage son and told him, "This is Taylor.  He and I attended the OTAs when you were in Rock Hill as a rookie."  He jokes, "Was he in diapers then?" and laughed.  I imagine Moose III was in diapers when we chatted that day.  So I really would love for this to work out.  However, his stats do not suggest he was anything special in college.

      Joe Person: Panthers really like Mason Graham and Jalon Walker

      I guess there are signs. The combination of the turf toe, hamstring, and knee issues led to questions about his long-term health and affected his draft stock, causing him to fall to the second round.  Here is what I know about a knee injury.  It changes nearly every aspect of your lower body movement.  So the turf toe and hamstring could be related.  It makes him seem injury prone.  I guess the knee was not the most recent injury, so the others could have been a result of favoring the knee. Johnson did not run the 40 at the combine or pro day.  That suggests there is something he feels might drop his value.  So if you downplay the severity of the injury, have a history of possibly related injuries, and refuse to demonstrate (when given multiple opportunities) that you are fully recovered, don't get mad when your stock drops.

      I saw numerous reports leading up to the draft that he'd been injury red flagged by numerous teams due to cartilage damage and wear issues that they think could shorten his career.
