"pre-season" games - temper your expectations

what do you expect - most of the 3rd string wont sniff actual live season snaps - most wont even make practice squads

i imagine he'll be worked in in passing situations with suggs and doom - im not too worried because worse comes to the worst we can send him in as a blitzer - like a heatseeking missile

oh yeah - i agree 100% i was just remarking that he has flashed good and bad in the run game tonight which i only really noticed because he's been fine on pass blocking

it's not troubling or debilitating but really really painful and quite distracting - feels like your jaw's in the wrong place despite it not being dislocated or anything like that

saying that, i've been impressed with a couple of run plays behind him tonight - he's inconsistent in the run game but is flashing well which ill take 100% from a rookie lt at this point

again quietly competent - we ran a couple of nice plays behind him but he also didnt quite get enough push in a 3rd a short at one point and we got stuffed but that's all i really noticed other than fairly good general protection of mallett (not specifically just stanley)

that was josh johnson (they brought him back in)

has camp been given a kick return yet?

well he just put some more bad film out there so i dont think even that's gonna happen

perfect start to a half... injury, pick, concede big first down and injury

if this was how competitions worked, schaub would have been beaten out by brenner or whatever his name was last year

no but they wont cut him because he played well enough against starters whereas josh johnson is pulling apart backup defensive players

he played it so well that he probably could have caught it - but ill take good coverage and playing the ball first

he sometimes goes man on the top receiver - that might be why... i dunno otherwise lol

pretty confident he does this every preseason - jerry rosberg i think asks him to do it so that we can test our special teams unit or with the current new rules about touchbacks he might be trying to get the ball to pin the returner deep

in receptions, yards, touchdowns or any combination? i wouldn't necessarily mind him leading in receptions considering he's a kind of move the chains reliable guy

mclellan i think - couldnt see the number though

have often thought this but you cant get better than what you play against maybe that's why the browns are always rubbish - they dont know how to be better because both sides of the ball are too bad to test the other side

the problem we have is that without sizzle and doom we have to rush 5 which leaves us shorthanded in the zone and/or unable to play man even if we wanted to... the same problem we had all the way through the regular season last year - i really hope sizzle and doom come back well or KC develops quickly because otherwise it's gonna be a long year watching qbs with way too much time

still didnt use his hands though lol

as did forsett on his whole 2 carries...

we should have taken the original 3 and out - indy has gained yards by giving us another set of 3

im getting flashbacks of last week: 2 runs for nothing and then a throw short of the sticks

to be fair to the downfield coverage - they've been having to cover for longer than they should be expected to with no pressure - and the biggest plays were on shareece wright and jerraud whiffing
