I would send in Boller. No reason to play McNair in garbage time

Gradkowski gets a nice cheer.
1st from the 30, complete to Becht for 4.
2nd and 6, Gradkowski pressured by Pryce, and hurries a throw to the RB incomplete. Pryce is OK, it seems.
3rd, Ivy CRUSHES Gradkowski on the blitz, and he threw it RIGHT to Jarret Johnson's hands and he drops the pick. SHEESH!

Boller coming in now. Good move.

WAY TO GO BOYS!

Don't look now, but, it's a Kyle sighting....

Probably giving McNair a much needed rest...and to keep him from getting hurt.

I bet Kyle will mostly hand off...probably throw a short pass at most.

Sheesh, typical Boller :hammer:

**psuraven** · 09-10-2006, 03:39 PM

McNair's stats for the game:

17 for 27, 181 yards, 1 TD, 0 Int, 94.8 Rating

Pretty good opening game against Tampa Bay's Defense.

Gonna be a handoff fest, of course.
6 minutes left.
1st, Anderson I think gets 1-2.
2nd and 8, Boller drops the snap (ugh), and grabs it and gains 1.
3rd and 8, Brown in at center and Terry in at LT, delay of game. The Kyle Boller experience.
3rd and 12, Anderson gets a nice carry for 7, and its punt time.

Returned to the 45. Koch goes off gingerly.

**crowdog89** · 09-10-2006, 03:41 PM

Geez, I don't like seeing the punter slow to get up....hope he's ok.

**Sephy** · 09-10-2006, 03:43 PM

1st from the 44, 3:43 left, Suggs with heavy pressure on Gradkowski, who scrambles right, doesn't throw it away, but runs out of bounds 1 yard before the LOS.
2nd and 11, 3:34 left, Gradkowski throws it to god knows where. Must have been a mixup.
3rd, 3:28 left, Scott smacking Gradkowski, and way overthrows his outlet. Toledo isn't Tampa, apparently.

Sams to the 19.
