Standouts, Thus Far...

These are my choices,

1) Kenny Moore - except for the fumble on a great punt return, pretty solid.

2) Jimmy Clausen - At first I hated this pick and couldn't stand him @ ND, but he moves well in the pocket and he really looks like he has passion for the game. Like to see him against a "first"team defense.

3) Brown, Hardy and Eric Moore, all 3 have stepped up and pressured the QB and they finish plays. Hey and they actually play the run also!

4) Eric Norwood - Plays faster than his 40 time would reflect, looks like he wants it.

5) Jordan Pugh - Tough hard-nosed player, who will help ST.

6) Jason Baker - The first game was bad, but he pinned the Jets deep in their end several times with some booming punts.

:thumbsup:

1. Let's hope he gets a chance to shine in the regular season.

2. Still holding my breath for the Great Emu on this one. Jury is still out.

3. All good work, but let's add in the rejuvenated Tyler Brayton and strangely enough, Hayden looked better than ever before (took his roller skates off).

4. Looks very good so far.

5. Needs to learn to be aware of where the ball is on punts. AE should have caught it, Pugh should have gotten the heck out of there. He looks better as a safety, and we can always use a good one.

6. Good punts, but he is sometimes booming them past the coverage. Needs more loft, ST guys need more wind sprints.

7. And Dexter Jackson is looking better than expected. (Wasn't expecting much, but still...)

In limited targets, I've been impressed with what David Gettis has done with the ball. Not sure why the guy is not getting more of a shot.

Yeah, I've seen him make some good plays too. Seems like every year there is always that one guy who is on the 3rd team that looks good but never gets elevated or even talked about.

I think all the D-Line, the ends have gotten the sacks, but the push in the middle has helped them. Add Johnson/Tank/Leonard/Landri and even freakn Hayden.

-We need a new backup center, Bernadeau is having problems there

And Jordan Gross, my God he looks awful! As much as I like him #10 (don't wanna mention his name) looks scared :eek:

AE, not only should have caught it, he has to yell for his blockers to clear out.

Next game, should clear up a lot of questions. As the starters play at least a half. I think the writing is on the wall for Cantwell.

We need to throw Fiametta in there as well

Yeah, Fiammetta has been a beast. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in the regular season, straight up pwning defenses.

How about Dan Connor, he's looked pretty good so far in the middle... at least on running plays. His first game out he looked a little bit overwhelmed, but he slowed it down last weekend, and I expect him to have a nice outing this Saturday as well. Our entire defense has looked really good though so far. Baring any injuries, #1 defense in the league come January.

    • WR: Nico, Woods, Tank (R) TE: Schultz OL: Tunsil/Howard/Deiter/Mason/Fant vs. WR: Chark, Thielen, Mingo (R) TE: Hurst OL: Icky/Zavala (R)/Bozeman/Jensen (R)/Moton   Panthers' had the better OL before losing BC week 1 and AC week 4 which is kind of ironic considering how in the following year DB went down in W1 and Shaq in W4 resulting in the defense going all to Hell. CJ has done amazing in Houston, but he also wasn't asked to carry Zavala, Jensen, Mingo, Hurst, and Chark as a rookie.
    • Past 5 seasons, IMO CJ Stroud and Joe Burrow are the 2 best young QBs that have emerged in the league in that window.  They also didn’t need vets to be their primary pass catchers.  They helped fellow youngsters be great at WR.   almost all the other young QBs have been paired up with vets in their top options….and haven’t been as promising.  so it isn’t Madden.  But the league hasn’t played out as you suggest it does.   Good QBs make others around them better.   
    • In 2023 their roster wasn’t stacked. They nailed the poo out of the 2023 draft and since they knew Davis Mills wasn’t the guy, they tanked properly to get pick 2. They also took Cleveland’s ridiculous offer for Watson unlike us with Burns. Houston received enough draft capital to jump up to 3 while picking up the right guys in Anderson and Stroud. The Texans were not stacked or better than us in 2023. They had 11 total wins from 2020 to 2022. They didn’t have a terrible front office so they made sure they got their QB of the future while tanking well and getting more draft picks. They are a textbook study of what we should have done in 2022/2023 offseason even though people in here still think tanking is a bad word and our culture would be bad if we were the Texans. We literally had the chance to be the Texans right now and fuged it up.
