Positives

GTripp0012 · 09-05-2008, 08:26 PM

Postives from the first three drives on both offense and defense thus far:

Offense:

-Portis' vision
-Heyer's run blocking
-Kendall and Samuels

Defense:

-London Fletcher
-Rocky McIntosh
-Kedric Golston
-Andre Carter

I'm guessing the secondary gets a lot better in the second half. Smoot once got beat so bad by Moss Jr that he turned and didn't even know where he went.

I'm doing the rest of the game breakdown. I won't have it done tonight, so I'll push it back to this Weekend.

Is it me or is Jason taylor a non-factor for us so far?

He wasn't even 100% unbelievable......... could y'all please give the players time to adjust or get healthy before bashing it's not like we were scheduled to go undefeated this season.

Slow down Cochise!! He had Eli running around the field and he's not even 85%. His knee is still bothering him, I'm not a doctor, but its obvious. JT was a factor on Thursday night!!!

Do not give up the big play down field and for the most part we didn't.... you can rack up as much yardage as you want but if you get only one touchdown I would have to say the defense did pretty well, they did what that defense is built for. We need our Offense to pick it up and SCORE. My criticism of the defense would be based on the fact we did not have our number 1 corner, and 2 players returning in less then a years time from SERIOUS knee injuries and a defense end not at 100%. They will get faster, Springs will play and i think our defense will get better (barring any injuries). Carter and Taylor need to put more pressure on the QB, Manning looked baffled at times when they got in his face. Yes he did make some nice throws while being hit, however the INT came when pressure was put on. We need more pressure from our front 4 and players to play (i.e. Springs)

This does seem to get lost on people. This defense works best when our offense has long sustained drives and the other team gets impatient and tries to force something.

Umm, 1 game on a knee that wasn't 100%. Were you expecting 3 sacks?

I think if the team had played the same way as they did against Jax or Carolina, I'd be freaking out. But they adjusted, did not turn the ball over, and play decent football (not enough to catch up, but still). I hope they get their kinks fixed for the next game. I'm sure home field advantage will help.
