SirClintonPortis 09-03-2010, 02:04 AM I agree with that...but Torrain wasn't good with open gaps tonight...and Williams is flat out average at best.
We are talking the #3 RB after all....kinda like Rock..Parker is every bit as good as Rock.
My question are WR's...did Austin do enough?
He may make the team since Kelly is on IR.
He really shouldn't make any pro squad...but he may for the skins.
I see no reason for us to carry 6 WR's especially since all but one are average at best anyways.
Heck...our TE's are better recievers than ALL but Moss....thats not good
Rock could play special teams. Parker? Yeah right....#3RB is usually a special teamer along with being an RB.
All three of the WRs that showed some good things are questionable in some respects, and don't even bother with Shay Hodge, as he stunk it up. Banks has issues with holding onto the ball for various reasons, DT is inconsistent, and Austin is sometimes on, sometimes off..
skinsnut 09-03-2010, 02:06 AM Now that the pre-season is over...what are your concerns?
Mine are
1. WR's still a problem
2. Running game weaker than I thought it would be
3. Running defense way worse than I thought it would be
4. Haynesworth looks weak
5. We may have found a decent WR in Armstrong
6. Without Shanny and McNabb, this team is no better than last year...except arguably the oline's pass blocking....the defense is far worse, due to the 3-4 transition, andre carter and orakpo and other situational pass rushers have been neutralized since they are no longer on the line where then excel.
This is a 6-10 team...but I will be an optimist and go with 7-9.
What do you think?

I wonder if a QB like McNabb would make DT, Austin, and maybe Banks look better. I mean, these guys are catching passes from Grossman, Bartel, and Beck. Just saying.

I think we have a good top 3 in Armstrong, Galloway, and Moss, and McNabb has made the likes of Todd Pinkston, James Thrash look decent, so yeah they would likely look better. Some actual gameplanning from the younger Shanahan would really help as well.

Here are mine:
1. Agree with your #1 about WRs
2. I would have liked to see McNabb play against the Jets, get him more real time reps in a game situation
3. Our d-line outside of AH are not pushing blockers (see Bills game)
4. Questionable covering skills from OLBs
5. Not thrilled with the RBs behind CP
6. We still not have a good covering Safety (we have a bunch of SSs)

I'd say Thomas is higher than Galloway...since...he kinda sucks
EARTHQUAKE2689 09-03-2010, 02:19 AM I'd say Thomas is higher than Galloway...since...he kinda sucks
Galloway has looked pretty good in this pre-season
skinsnut 09-03-2010, 02:26 AM Galloway has looked pretty good in this pre-season
huh?...when?
I saw him catch a single pass in the middle of soft zone coverage last week...otherwise, he's been invisible

NFL.com say 3 catches 29 yards for the preseason....for a #2 receiver?
cmon...that is horrid

If course McNabb has every defensive coordinators respect in the NFL. No one respects Bartel & Beck probably minimum respect if any for Grossman. Look at it this way they didn't respect JC so they stacked the box and made him make plays. Totally different story with McNabb if you give D-Mac one on one coverage with Moss, Banks Armstrong & Austin on the outside they will blow by defenders all day with their speed. Bombs all over Fed-Ex Field if that happens.
