Winners and losers

[Sapper]

Winners: Those that understand pre-season football.

Losers: Those that do not.

this board usually cuts its wrists and sticks its head in the oven after the first preseason game. i'm surprised at the tone here tbh.

I didn't keep tabs on Silatolu the whole night, but I was impressed with what he did on Cam's 15-yard run. He man-handled some DT to the side and then immediately turned and picked up another d-lineman. It showed a little of that nastiness that he had all throughout college.

This defensive scheme will not work and our DL doesnt have enough heart.

HEART! The most important element in sports!

We sucked in all three phases of the game.

There were however several bright spots as far as individual efforts that stood out. About a half dozen guys should help us in the upcoming season.

Mostly, the team did not seem ready

You are right i should have said they arent working hard enough mentally.

Winners IMO are guys who increased their chances to make the team not guys who were assured a spot already like Adams, Kueckly, etc. So winners were guys like Keiser, Poole, Pugh, Senn, McClain, Barnidge etc.

Losers were guys who increased the chances they don't make it through camp. Guys like Vaughn, Stanford, Edwards, Cllausen for example.

As for the defense they gave up 6 points in the first half and created turnovers. That is what we wanted. They were fine given we were not all out blitzing like Houston was all day.

The real losers were those offensive players trying to prove their value while Clausen was taking snaps.
