Allen seems to be fifth on the depth chart at running back, but fantastic at special teams.

 

I'm pretty sure only Ray Rice and Bernard Pierce would be ahead of him on the depth chart. Are you including fullbacks, as well?

he played well on special teams.

 

True.  I just think other guys can do the job just as well.  We were very strong on ST all around tonight.

58-yarder for Justin Tucker! Even if the crossbar played a role in that field goal; even if the ground was wet; even if there was a slight wind going against the kick... well, the guy is money!

Juice is doing really poorly as a blocker. No power, the best I've seen him do is deflect a guy from the running lane. He's either been bounced back, stood up, or not blocked anyone.

 

Yeah I see why we re-signed Leach.. Juice just hasn't been getting it done as a lead blocker thus far. You can't be the nail when your Ray Rice's lead blocker on the GL, Leach is always the hammer.

Very happy with our backups.  I would have like to seen a better performance from our starters, but I'm sure the rain and the fact that it's preseason made it tough.  I'll reserve judgment on them for the next couple of weeks.

That has been the concern for Juice.  He really didn't do much blocking at Harvard.  He's more like a swiss army knife.  Can do a bit of everything.  Having Leach back will only help his blocking development.

I also thought our inside linebackers looked good. Daryl Smith look awesome, he was a tackling machine. Bryan Hall had a good game. Didn't hear much from Arthur Brown, but that doesn't mean he didn't do bad. Josh Bynes also had a nice game....if we do need some cap space, I hate to say it but Jameel could be a casualty.
