alright ive heard to many conflicting reports about how our players played in game one. so i had to see for myself. i had some time tonight and i had the game recorded so here goes.
there were 3 players inparticular that i have read conflicting reports on.
carr is first. in no way can you tell much about a guy in 5 throws but i thought 4 out of 5 were good balls. the one of the 4 that was incomplete was a good pass although maybe he could have looked of the defender. hard to tell but it looked like he eyed johnson the whole way.
on the completion that tillman cominted on he was wrong. aj was not open until after the throw. aj was covered by the corner and might of had help over the top as well.
there was one bad pass that im not sure could of been completed even if it was thrown better. there were alot of guys around that one.
second is mario. sorry guys but he was not double teamed all night. i found it kinda odd that they would game plan for a rookie in a preseason game. and i was right. mario had 2 guys on him twice and that was just cause he happened to go to the wrong spot not because they were concentrating on him. he didnt do much of anything and he was single covered. but again it was one preseason game with very limited action. and it usually take de a while to adjust to the nfl.
last is pitts. i like pitts and hope that he finally stays put. but i cant really get a good feel for how he is doing because you have so many conflicting posts about how he is playing. he played very well in the first couple of possesions that i saw.
im not a guru like some of these guys but everyonce in awhile its hard to tell what is really going on. so you have to watch for yourself.
i guess there isnt away to edit my thread topic?
