Let's see how we fared this week -
Kelly 1 REC for 8 YDS (complete non-factor)
Thomas 3 REC for 19 YDS (plus a key drop on a perfectly thrown deep ball)
and for good measure
Fred Davis 3 REC for 23 YDS (and for the love of God, stop making like Skeets Nehemiah in the high hurdles and put your head down for the extra yard).
A Marko Mitchell sighting can't come soon enough.
That Campbell pass to DT was right on the money. Dude's gotta catch that. Lay out!

Exactly. We have so many missed opportunites and honestly I players leave a lot of plays on the field.
1. That play.
2. The fumble by Davis.
3. The poor tackling of Delhomme. (what happend to swarming to the ball? - that ws somethign Gregg Williams used to coach)
4. The punt return mishap.
5. Orakpo lining up off sides.
6. Not to mention us using time outs because Zorn can't get a play in on time.
All of these plays killed us.

I think that maybe the biggest debacle was Batiste's penalty for not lining up on the LOS. That was 3rd & 11 & JC hit ARE for what would've been a 1st. We were driving & had momentum. 3rd & 16 he throws to Davis who is 3-4 yards shy of a 1st.

Regardless of where Davis is he fumbled the ball. This is a game of field psotion also. If he doens't get the 1st..oh well. We punt the ball and buckle down. our team is not disciplined or efficient and the coaches are much to blame as the players are. They need to cut down on penatlies and stop making mental mistakes.

Czabe just reported that Kelly and Thomas have a combined 11 REC for 99 YDS through 5 games. Rookie Jeremy Maclin had over 140 YDS and two long TD's yesterday. Like I said earlier, time to see whether Marko Mitchell can make a play. I have no doubt that he would have caught the deep ball that Thomas dropped with the game on the line yesterday. I'm tired of hearing what beasts Kelly, Thomas and Fred Davis are in practice. Either put up on Sunday or SHUT UP!!!

I'm getting sick of Davis. He almost fumbled the ball, and couldn't get a GD yard to keep the drive going. Ugh.

Thomas, Kelly, and Davis are all to busy laughing at the fact that Vinny thought they were worthy of first round grades. That is why they have trouble getting their heads in the game.

I agree. I think Marko would have caught that ball also. How many deep balls did Kelly or Thomas catch and how many TDs did they catch in preseason? Davis needs to hold on to the ball. I wouldn't mind using him with Cooley like the Chicago uses their TE's.

Davis was down because the ground caused his fumble. He did have effort. Even Cooley and Moss fumble. I agree our guys have to many mental errors that a bad team can not aford to make.
