Field position is more key then some realize. If the team's average starting point is the 20 yard line, as appose to the 25 yard line, it could mean the game. I'll keep Eling on, even if he takes an extra spot on the roster.

It should read "DL has Control of Flynn"
I dont know how long McNair will be around if Flynn is our starter for 16 weeks of football. I sure hope Brown can take his job sometime before week 8.

I probably wasn't clear. If Elling is the only one kicking well of course we keep him. I'm just saying if Koch can do the same or better it's no use wasting the roster spot.
I hate wasting the extra spot for a KO specialist. Between the place kicker and punter I'd hope we can get one of them to handle KOs.

It is good to see that Jason Brown is working with the second unit at center. Remember that last year, the 2nd string center in camp was Thatcher Saladbar (I don't know his last name).
Thatis a sign that Brown is close to ready to take over.
As for Adam Terry, he did well at LT, and don't give me the crap about wjo did not play. You play the team that is on the field. (We did not have Ngata, Ogden, Ray, Cmac, nor Rolle on the field). Plus, you would expect an extraodinary player like Strahan to perform well against a young LT like Adam Terry. (Hell, McCrary made Tony Boselli look bad). It is how Terry looks against the regular DEs, and Terry did well. All I ask of Terry is to be respectable, at this point, against the star DEs.

3 kickers is too many. I am not certain why one won't do, it's not that specialized. I think a college guy will come along soon enough that does. Still have to carry a backup in case he gets hurt but...

Strahan is a LE that lines up near the RT, but he didn't play. Osi Umenyora (sp?) plays RE and is very good at it, but Terry kept him fairly quiet.

I think Brian is just covering Ozzie's mistakes on the offensive line. I want Brown to work out too, but from everything I'm hearing, he's not ready.
