Did We Improve From Last Week Or Not?

Some players did better. Gross stepped it up, and that was an improvement. But I was never really worried about that to begin with.

Unfortunately, some of his contemporaries inherited his problem with some stupid penalties.

Was it 3 false starts in a row on a 4th down punt attempt?

The defense showed once again that they have the ability to create pressure. Nick Hayden's sack was a pleasent surprise. Everette Brown was lights out. Beason was all over the field and playing out of his skull--but we wouldn't expect less.

I look at Preseason as individual tryouts Pugh's and Defensive Moore showed me something. Think both should make the team. WR's none impressed think Zod nailed it and we will be getting a veteran before the regular season with what we have now we wont get far. We also need a backup Center. Fix these problems and we will be fine. Running game is great and we also havent seen Moore and Clausen with Smitty this year. Defense is set.

we've been playing against some blitz happy 3-4 teams and it's shown. Adding in that we don't really prepare too much for these teams it's making passing the ball pretty hard.

The Titans should be a lot better hopefully. The O-line will be mano-a-mano instead of having to worry about scheme.

The D is really impressive right now. The Jets aren't a powerhouse but 9 points is 9 points.

Pugh looked awesome.

Forgot about the center issue.

That's what I think could really change the face of this offense. I was optimistic about Moore after seeing how he was able to involve Smith in the offense last year.

You've pretty much got the rest right, also.

Yeah, that's my thinking. We will see with Titans if we have an offense or not, unless the Titans defense has risen to the level of the last two teams. If they have I guess we will have to go into the season blind on how good/bad we really are.

The offense struggles I think because we develop no chemistry. Receivers get shuttled in and out which gives the guys no "go to guy". I can't believe I am saying it but honestly if Jarrett had played more I think he would have done fine and we would have moved the ball. He looked very good tonight. LaFell and Moore didn't really. After that first catch by Moore, he didn't do much else.

From my view in the stands he still ran routes gingerly and didn't get all that much seperation. Once again his hands are outstanding.

Right now he's our most reliable receiver because of his hands. It's crazy. IF you can get the ball to him he will catch it.

    • I did get some coin in on the Knicks to win the whole thing at +3300 immediately after they won game two and before their odds made a huge shift so I'm not mad at this news. I don't expect them to win but I'll probably be able to cash for a good amount if they make the finals.
    • Horn and T-Mac will get matched up a lot, but it won't be 100% of the time, nor should it be anything close to that. Yes, it would benefit T-Mac's ability to get better at beating the press, but it would also be a detriment both of them for them to be matched up too much more than 50% of their reps. Neither is likely to end up going up against similar players in games, not many teams have WRs the size of T-Mac and not many teams have CB's with the physicality of Horn.  Horn needs to work on covering smaller shiftier WRs as well, just as T-Mac needs plenty of reps against smaller CBs so he can work on using his frame to body them out of position.
    • Tatum tore his Achilles it looks like. At least watching the injury that's what it seems to be. He's probably out all next year and Boston sucks and gets a lottery pick. :insert eye roll here:
