Re: GAME THREAD - Preseason Opener - Skins
I had sort've knocked Barnes down to my "bubble" players due to the fact that we've got so many locked guys at LB...Ray, JJ, Suggs, Gooden, McClain, Kruger...we really can't carry anymore than 9, so that leaves 3 spots for Ellerbe, Barnes, Ayanbedejo, Phillips, and Burgess.
So if Barnes is a lock too, now you've got 2 spots at max for Ellerbe, Ayanbedejo, Phillips, and Burgess...I'd guess the two most in danger would be Phillips and Burgess..

Call me a Special Teams coach again. I dare you! I double dare you, MFer!

Re: GAME THREAD - Preseason Opener - Skins
As far as Haushcka vs Gano...let's just call this one a slight win for Hauschka, with the next game still being a pretty dead even competition...One game is not enough to win or lose it for either guy.

Re: GAME THREAD - Preseason Opener - Skins
i think mcclain is just as much of a bubble guy as barnes. the more i think about it, the less i want ayanbadejo out there in front of some of these young guys. i keep having the vision of him blowing the zone coverage when santonio caught that ball to win the game and can't help but think we'd be better served with an actual LB in there.

Re: GAME THREAD - Preseason Opener - Skins
still, think about the fact that we are saying a Pro Bowl LB (on Special Teams) is a bubble player at best...That says something about the caliber of players we have competing here.

Re: GAME THREAD - Preseason Opener - Skins
My impressions:
Beck> Troy Smith(In this game)... I've always been one to like the accurate passer. Smith was wild or high on alot of throws...
Jayson Foster needs to be looked at hard.. He show explosion and a lil play making ability.. He even showed some ups... Jermaine Lewis anyone?
Cousins.. Needs to tape his fingers together.. No more holding, Like someone posted early.. a back-up OT should be signed.
Harper impressed.. But he needs to be consistent. I wanna see him with Flacco.
Biggest Disappointment?? K.J Garrad. Wasn't he supposed to be a guy always around the ball? I saw him once or twice..
Biggest Surpise?? Antwan Barnes.. Oh yes.. I think he had a man-crush on Colt Brennen.. Cause he was all over him.. Like white girls on NBA Players..
Overall a great game for tonight.. Can't wait to see us agains the Ravens- New York Ravens

Re: GAME THREAD - Preseason Opener - Skins
That definately could be. The interviewer kept goading him with self-serving questions and Smith didn't take the bait. The first words out of his mouth were "Today's not about Troy Smith, its about the team". And "Joe Flacco is the starter, without question."
Someone must have said something to him. :)
