  1. generally cornerbacks arent wide receivers becuz they cant catch. Theres a big difference between fielding a punt or kickoff and catching a pass.
  2. I thought for sure Terrence Magee would make it. He showed a lot in the running game and a lot on special teams especially Thursday night when he ran the punt returner down, fought thru a block and tackled him short of the goal. I just hope he makes it thru waivers and we get him on the PS.
  3. it was a smart thing to do to cut some of the guys we want on our practice squad now. Most teams will wait to see what veterans and if any goodies will be cut tomorrow giving our guys a better chance to clear waviers.
  4. for return man we have Webb, SSS, Camp, Magee (if they keep him). Ozzie still might wait to see who gets cut from other teams. Im sure hes on the case.
  5. I think Waller is in. Its Butler, Nelson and Brown (not Marlon) that are on the bubble.
  6. I put about as much credence in ESPN's top 100 as I do in the "magic 8 ball's" advice. Espn is all for the ratings. The most popular or who they DEEM to be most popular always gets the most attention. They, for some reason, have never liked Flacco and so they never give him the praise or credit he deserves.
  7. I think Brown will be used as a pass rusher and cover guy in passing situations a lot. Hes really fast and quick. His special teams play is what hampered him and put him behind Orr and McClellan. Hes too good of an athlete to cut or let sit the bench for long.
  8. Ryan, Ive seen your haircut. That DEFINITLY is not your haircut!
  9. I heard Maxx was practicing but with a "non contact" jersey on. Sound like a rib injury. He did take a shot when he hurtled that guy in the first preseason game. Just a guess!
  10. I think a lot of our reserve woes are due to the fact that all our leaders are on 1st string. No one on 2nd and 3rd string to get everyone set, call the plays, take control.
  11. If Jennings is so good then why did he get cut?
  12. on that play he looked like Crockett the rocket.
  13. the problem with our secondary is they practice against our WRs who run easy to defend routes so they aren't up to the task of stopping WRs from other teams who run crisp, fast, precise routes. The problem with our WRs is they run lousy routes and get away with it because our secondary cant defend their lousy routes then when they get in a game their lousy routes are too lousy to work on a good secondary.
  14. there are many great memories about Matt Stover but when I think of him I see him in his stance, the very same stance a second before every FG or PA.
  15. I don't know DC from Marvel but of course Spiderman is Webb. I think Thor would be Crockett GilTHOR and Atom Ant would be Justin Antsett
  16. Flacco just seems to have acquired a much higher sense of confidence this year which gives me more confidence and I'm sure it gives all the players more confidence. I'm excited about this year. Also can anyone tell me how to turn on the AUTO PLAY when I'm trying to see a live press conference? Its GREEN and ON for the recorded stuff but RED and OFF for the live stuff. Wheres the ON switch?
  17. Marlon, Jeremy, Kamar, Camp, SSS, and Waller all have enough speed to go deep. The question is do they have the moves to shake the defender. The best WRs in the league aren't usually the fastest but the ones with the best route running and the best hands.
  18. Mcphee had one job. Rush the passer. I think they are trying to make Smith into an all around linebacker more like Suggs.
  19. If you get the ball near Marlon , he will catch it. Ive seen him open several times but wasn't targeted. Joe needs to use him.
  20. Flummoxed...nice word. It looked to me like the Eagles game-planned for us. I think Chip Kelly wanted to put some fear in the hearts of the Cowboys and Giants.
  21. I wonder how his blocking is off the line and down the field. He doesn't seem very fast but sometimes that can be deceptive. If he can run good routes it might be worth it to keep him on the practice squad
  22. I think DeAndre Carter is done. I cringe every time hes back for to receiver a kick or punt and I think his catching a pass is about 50/50. Marlon brown has pretty much made the 53 man roster. He only caught a couple of passes but I saw he was open on a several plays and should have been targeted. I like Daniel Brown but he runs like hes wearing mud caked army boots. They keep saying how fast Arthur Brown is but I wasn't impressed on his pass coverage. He looked slow to me. Vaughn was all over the place, the man wants a job! If any of you seen the guy the Eagles had kicking in the second half of the game you probably had the same thought as I did..."what high school did HE come from?"
  23. wow, its going to be heartbreaking to cut any of these guys. I wouldn't want to have Harbaughs job on that day.
  24. squeeze it so hard it squeals!
  25. When you watch the second clip of Flacco to Camp, check out how perfect the spiral is on Joes throw. Its a thing of beauty. The ball actually seems to pick up speed.
