Growl

run run pass punt yay....

Greg... Sheesh

We needed more OL depth.

Brian Folkerts is as good as gone. No guaranteed contracts after this week, with Jake Scott still out there? Yes.

Gross was holding that guy and he still blew by him.

freakin Gross

Lotulelei not only forced the prssure but identified the screen enough to affect it... in his first NFL game. Dude is going to be a monster.

dumb play call on 3rd and two.

what Brian Folkerts saw at 5:59 p.m. yesterday I'm next.

uggh Haruki noooo

the titans had one of the better DLs in the NFL a few years ago and iiirc it was comprised entirely of former panther preseason castoffs.

Twitter is saying Craig Roh made the roster. Remember when we used to cut players who played well in preseason (followed by hoards of reasonabatards saying it's just preseason!) and then they'd go somewhere and be good football players? I think I'm pretty happy to see those days are over. As long as the stockpile of DE's doesn't cut into us finding depth where we need it.

somewhere in the deep recesses of BOA.. Rivera weeps..

We saw the team last night look exactly like they have in previous preseasons during Rivera's tenure., which then carried on into the regular season. Flat, unfocused, making nonsensical mistakes and boneheaded penalties. Rivera has proven to be too lax on this team. I hope that would change this season, but if it doesn't we are in for another slow start. Chew them out Rivera. They are not your friends. They are your players. Will the errors of the first two preseason games carry on for the final two? We shall see. If it does, then you should be concerned. 3's a trend, and this is the 3rd time we've seen a Rivera coached team look like this early on.

Alright. So here's the real truth of preseason. Every year the self-appointed "rational" guys do this, and no doubt, there is merit to the notion that you shouldn't take preseason games too seriously, and that wins or losses don't matter. But here's the part that goes ignored every year- you don't want the team to come out looking like crap. How the team plays in these games has proven to be a rather telling indicator how they will perform overall in the regular season. In what has become a yearly tradition, we see the team come out looking flat, or unprepared emotionally or fundamentally, or some players who shouldn't even be trying out for a roster and just flat out suck are awarded key starting positions regardless of how terrible they've been throughout the preseason, and every year, people say, "hey, this seems to be a problem" to which the aforementioned "rational" people proclaim "HARHAR LOOK @ U NEWB ITS PRESEASON THESE GAMES DONT MEEN NOTHIN!!" Then the irony comes in, as those same people are befuddled and stunned when the team comes out a mere six days later looking flat, or unprepared emotionally or fundamentally, or some players who shouldn't have even been on our roster and flat out suck were awarded starting positions. This is followed by rage and outcry, "WHAT DO YOU MEAN THE MAGICAL GENIE JELOSPHIN DIDNT DESCEND WHEN PRESEASON ENDED AND BESTOW THE MAGICAL PROPHESIED IN ANCIENT TIMES "REGULAR SEASON POWERS" UPON US??? THE INTERNET SAID THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN!! WHY IS SIONE FUA STILL AN AWFUL PLAYER?!" No, the preseason doesn't mean much. What you do want to see however, is good football, top to bottom. You want to see your starters look pumped, focused, prepared, equipped, and ready for an NFL season. You want to see your backups look mentally prepared and as if they actually understand the sport that is being played. You want your team to look good.

He actually did a pretty good job...

Glad I steered clear of the Huddle until the announcement. Super exciting. Great job Kooch!
