Scud's Studs (Week 9 vs. San Fran)

GMScud · 11-06-2011, 07:21 PM

Well, I was out at a friends today and was watching the game, sort of. A bunch of us, lots of food, gorgeous fall today... I didn't really get into it. I'm going to watch it on TiVo later tonight, but I really don't have much right now.

Gano is a keeper (closing the "hats off thread").

Helu is going to be a weapon running and receiving.

Kerrigan and Rak both rushed the passer well.

Hankerson looked pretty good in his first extended action of his career.

That's all I've got for now...

Why the lock on the Gano thread? There's always going to be overlapping discussion, not like this thread focuses solely on that.. or even came first. Agree on the list though.

GMScud · 11-06-2011, 07:25 PM

Are we going to start a separate thread for everyone who deserves a tip of the cap?

Closed it because we try to keep things tidy, and in general Smoot's smack downs and my Studs are where the dogs and goats are discussed.

Hats are off to Gano for sure, though.

Seems like all week all we have is a few megathreads active. Board is slow and cluttered enough imo but oh well, not the point of this thread.

Thanks for your opinion.

If it's cluttered enough, then it certainly helps to not have a thread for every player that had a contribution.

Where's the Sean Locklear thanks for filling in well at RT thread? Or good job on 14 catches Roy Helu thread? Or the nice 2pt conversion Leonard Hankerson thread? That would be clutter. IMO.

Gano
Kerrigan
Helu (mostly a stud; some problems)
Carriker

Yep, that seems about right. i would give honorable mention to Hurt for holding his own.

I'd add D Hall for the strip and the majority of the Defense for continuing to fight despite the ineptness of the offense. Fletcher just never quit.

Agreed. The offense is so bad, and yet the D really fights and gives us a chance. That said, giving up 107 yards to Gore on only 19 carries isn't good enough.

The secondary did play better today. I'm watching the game on TiVo right now... Barnes playing pretty decent from what I can see.

that could be because SF is like 26th in passing JS

GMScud · 11-06-2011, 09:29 PM

I think it's funny that it took a franchise record FG to get off of the scoring slump.

That's what I can't figure out. The front seven is just the way it was week one -- no significant injuries, but these guys keep getting sliced and diced every week.

Then again, maybe they just haven't been that good at stopping the run from the beginning.

Cofield and Bowen have been quiet for about 4 weeks or since the slide began.

Bowen has been very good to me, Carriker despite all the sacks seems to be the less effective run stopper.

I still think Cofield was a bad pick up as a NT, I'm sure he'd be a fine 3-4 DE but he doesn't have the size of experience to be a 3-4 NT.
