Who Gets The Week 2 Game Ball

[gibbsisgod]

Went with MOSS!!!!! Horton was a close second.

Its gotta be the O line as they paved the way for the running game to get going which allowed JC the opportunity to complete some big passes.

and after a day of thinking,give one to joe bugel.with all the stuff he has been through,to coach at the level he has done is amazing!

Other than Zorn, I chose the offensive line. Without the success of the o-line NOTHING happens on offense. We were able to establish timing, gain confidence, and provide JC with the opportunity to execute this offense. Our season depends on our o-line showing up, and they certainly did today.

Yupp no one has mentioned this but JC had all day to go to his 4th read. Oline determined the game, if you get more than 5 seconds then any QB looks amazing.

JC gets it hands down. He made some big time plays today. We were backed up 2-20 down by 9 and he ripped one off to Cooley and after that he just got in the zone it seemed. Then the pass to Moss was just a thing of beauty. You could almost see his confidence growing out there.

I voted for JC because I was moments away from a floggin.

While Horton had a big game as well, JC found a way to make plays while plays seemed to find Horton.

I'm with you, it's tough to pick just one.

Campbell, Moss, Portis, the O-line, most of the defense, ESPECIALLY Horton, Coach Zorn made a HUGE improvement over week 1...

Let's just give it to Chief Zee.

Campbell gets it for the clutch pass to Cooley; go ahead TD to Moss; and game clincher to Moss.

I would give a game ball to three people.

Firstly, Jim Zorn. For getting his first win as a head coach and not crumbling when we were down 24-15. He showed a lot of improvement over his first game last week and he also showed trust in JC.

Secondly, Jason Campbell. What a great rebound performance from week 1, and he also stepped up and made plays when it mattered. He didn't get down when we were down 24-15 and he looked good.

Thirdly, Chris Horton. A 7th round rookie safety starting in place of a vet, and he ends up with 2 picks and a fumble recovery. He had a great day for the most part and for a guy that wasn't exactly expected to make the team it was a great start for him.

Oh and I'd also like to give a little props to HB Blades. He started in place of M.W. and he had a solid day all around, especially in stopping the run game.

Ditto!

I won't take credit for thinking of this as I heard it on the radio but how about our training staff for getting the fluids in these players and keepng them on the field. If I'm correct I did not see any players cramping up or becoming dehydrated. Also how about the guys holding up those shades for the players and while I 'm at it how about the beer guys lugging those cold cases of beer up and down the stadium.

There just is no wrong answer here.

[jsarno]

That being said, I went with Moss, although I think the Oline should get it. If not for them no one would have had they day they did.
All in all, again, there is no wrong answer.

I chose Campbell, with Horton a close 2nd.

As crappy as he played against the Giants, JC was able to pick himself up by his boot straps and have a very solid game. Making the adjustments he did (including the TD pass to Moss), looking more like the QB is be capable of being, it was a complete 180 from the Giants game.

Horton stepped up and played very well in Doughty's absence. 2 picks and a fumble recovery, he helped push the momentum in the right direction.
