David Gettis is really showing why he deserves a chance. He's just making plays again and again. Would love to see what he can do playing with starters.

 

Colin Cole has a very broad foundation. When he stands up, he reminds me of a pair of parentheses (). He can move well for a big guy though.

 

Eagles DL looks more disciplined than last season. Back when we played on MNF, they looked like they'd been coached by Leeroy Jenkins.

 

Anderson Russell gets his name mentioned again.  This kid wants to get noticed.

 

Armond Smith and Tauren Poole both run without fear.

 

Louis Nzegwu got thrown to the ground by Eagles rookie tackle Michael Bamiro, but came back later and got a good hit on Dennis Dixon. He looked good last week. Might be a good PS candidate.

 

Barner signalled fair catch on the punt fumble but one of his own ran into him. Anderson Russell on the spot though.

 

Richie Brockel is a guy I like but I don't know if there's a roster spot for him. Could come down to a choice between him and Brandon Williams. I'm not convinced you could safely stash Williams on the practice squad.

 

Speaking of Williams, he had an up and down game.

 

As cute as some of these AT&T kids are, I'm starting to tire of them.

 

I'm glad Garrett Chisholm isn't blocking for Cam Newton.

 

First looks at D J Moore and Robert Lester. Both may have a bit of an uphill climb.

 

Anderson, while better than last week, still wasn't all that great. Fair number of off throws still. David Gettis saved him from a sure pick.

 

Kenjon Barner came back to earth a bit. Still like him, but I'm not ready to move him up the depth chart just yet.

 

Everette Brown sacks Jimmy Clausen. Somewhere, Marty Hurney doesn't know whether to smile or frown.

 

I like A J Klein.

  

Nice tackle by Wes Horton too.

 

Clausen missing Bersin wide. The Blonde Connection is off tonight.

 

I always laugh when refs use the phrase "non-football act".

 

The Eagle cheerleaders make me think about things other than football too.

 

All over. I suppose the bottom line is that if you're gonna lay an egg, do it in preseason :unsure:

Yeah, I agree but, I'm higher on him at WR hurt than I am on Ginn. Hopefully, Hixon plays next game and we'll get to see what has to offer.

 

I'm looking forward to seeing Ginn do some returning.

 

As far as receiving, Ginn is better suited to work with a QB like Newton than one like Anderson.  You just let Newton throw a rocket and watch Ginn run under it.

      The Panthers win streak is masking substandard quarterback play

      By Diehardpanth02 · Posted

      He’s been every bit as much of the problem as anyone else. You cant remove him from that fact, he is just as much part of the team and in THE most important position on the field. But this is the first season he’s seen any kind of continuity in his team and coaches. And he’s shown flashes here and there. But we do need more out of him going forward a lot more if we are going to be successful

      Bryce isn’t great and super mid. But I think can be a game manager. What do we think is out there? Daniel Jones isn’t going anywher. Mac Jones? Zach Wilson? Pickett. I’m just not sure what’s out there that is much better without having to give up a ton of capital. Rather take one more step closer to contention with our early rounders next year with FS and LB help. Make this  place where dang they got a defense and a WR1 and solid RB room. I can win with that and want to be here

      Vet QB Options - Trade/Cut/FA Edition

      By amcoolio · Posted

      AR15 is if Justin Fields was fragile and his teammates hated him. No thanks. Ya'll think you hate watching Bryce Young? Wait until your QB can't even complete a 7 yard pass over the middle, which Fields and Richardson can't do. If the draft class was better, I could absolutely see the Titans moving on from Ward already if they got the #1 pick. But so far the college QB's haven't impressed enough. They'll have flashes, but then follow it up with a very meh game. Kyler is already done in Arizona, but he has a ridiculous contract and he's basically Bryce that likes to scramble, so no thanks. If Lawrence can't produce with that team in Jacksonville, what do you think he'll do here? He's tall Bryce who can throw deep but can't make the 4th down throws and crumbles in the red zone. No thanks. I do think Canales wants to move on from Bryce, his body language says so even in wins. He treated Bryce pretty odd this week and Bryce looked checked out in the Packers game. But unless they make another risky trade, its going to be slim pickings. Basically our hopes lie in hitting early in the draft with a Mateer, Nussmeier, Beck type or finding a random backup free agent that has another gear to hit.  I think even with the draft being wishy washy, 4-5 QB's will be taken in the top 7. A lot of teams are just that desperate.
