Smoot Lays the Smack Down (Preseason Week 4)

Easy on the Barry comparison's....lol.

It was Alridge, and was pretty awesome how quickly he could accelerate from a stop. The fumble sealed his fate, so hopefully they are taking a long look at Dorsey. Rock was his usually self, steady and unspectacular. I would still prefer using DThomas at KR, especially if Kelly wins the #2 WR spot.

Not comparing him in general..just that one play. Very Barry like. But I don't think he makes it either.

How so...nothing from the first team OLine has made me nervous this pre-season. Other than health concerns I think they are OK.

The OL has been pretty solid, I don't get all the hand wringing about them either. I feel better about the reserves this year than last too.

Oh ok was that on a catch then? I was just looking at this rushing numbers and he only had 1 for -3.

Despite the fumble I think he still has a shot at sticking. That's something they can continue to work on with him.

Yeah it was on the 2 minute drill Daniel ran and he caught the little hook route in stride and stopped dead on a dime and ran the opposite direction. Now granted the two jabronies who left most of their dignity on the field because of it were probably fodder and clearly not so fast but still it was fun to watch. Then he ran around the defense and down the sideline and out of bounds, No one ever touched him. HAHA.

Me too.


What did everyone think of Henson last night?

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Mike Williams. He looked lost AND slow. Although most of the second string lineman looked like crap.

Just messing bro....I just see Barry on a totally different level than everyone else. :)

Actually I though against their second team he looked ok. The fact that he looked slow against their speed rushers didn't shock me considering it's the first time he's played in what 3-4 years?

I do too.

I was watching the crappy internet feed for a while and saw big Mike W. getting absolutely toasted on a few plays. I saw a guy run by him like he was standing still. Can the coaches even justify giving a roster spot to this guy?

The problem with that is, if he ends up having to play at all this season, it's going to be against starting defensive ends. How do you think he'd look against DeMarcus Ware or Osi? I think there's a good chance Washington brings in another OT after this weekends roster cuts.

I never thought I'd say this, but I miss Jon Janson.
