Hardy

[mayotm]

I like that Hardy got some playing time in the first half. Only 2 catches for 30 yards, but good to see him on the field. He had another catch for about 18 yards called back by a penalty. I think they've just been ultra-conservative with his hamstring. Hopefully, he's fully healthy and ready to go against Seattle. I don't expect huge numbers from him this year, but we need him to contribute in the red zone. On a side note, Steve Johnson has looked good tonight. I don't think he's going to make the 53 man roster, but will be on the practice squad.

Only? A reciever averages just about 3-4 catches a game. Having Hamdan throwing to him, he was still able to get 2 catches and 30 yards. Pretty good job for only 1 1/2 quarters.

No doubt about it, more than anything I think he gives us a threat over the middle if he can take a hit and hold on to the ball. Evans has us covered deep but we've lacked someone on he intermediate routes. I imagine we'll see a lot of curl routes and slants.

[njsue]

Can't wait to see Hardy smoke opposing defenses. :snicker:

This kid is a draft steal.

that definitly remains to be seen. i gotta feeling this guy will be working his way into the starting rotaion by mid season

Especially being as tall as he is, a good safety will put his helmet right into his ribs if the QB throws too high.

I'd look for that - starting by midseason; possibly by the bye week

i think the coaches will see the pressure it takes off of evans and have to due it if they want to win games. they would be stupid not to. i mean the guy is 10 ft tall he is going to over shadow just about every corner in the league, the guy has cockdieselups, they have to double him, and i bet he still comes up with alot of grabs.

I'm going to be as optimistic as possible but the patience has almost worn out over the past decade.

Sadly I'll be at a few games a year too, but it's well worth it.

The talent is there, we have the team on paper, now we just have to put it on the field.

lets hope the coaching staff see it that way.

I like what Stevie Johnson did 2-night .... I think it was 8 catches; 50+ yards.

Hardy - bring it on!!!!!!

we slowly put the talent in place. its there now with exception of a few players just a few to make it to the show. i dont know what position, ill check back with that maybe week 5.

ya i hope so to. sometimes i think i can do a better job when i am at home on the couch drinking brew ha's watching the game. but they get paid the big bucks for some odd reason.
johnson is going to bloom into one hell of a receiver i think. i am pretty confident is sayin we will see alot more of this kid nearing the end of regular season. but he will def. move up the depth chart next season.,

LOL...aint it the truth brother.

I having a Sam Adams, thinking the coaches see this stuff too right!!!

Hardy looked good
Johnson looked good
Youboty looked good (OSUBuckeyefan must have loved it)
but, please, don't tell me the coaches have a hardon for John Corto (spelling?)

[patmoran2006]

I don't care if he didnt catch any passes.. He ran well, especially over the middle. He even had a couple of blocks, which is more than I can for most the offense.

I think you're wrong about Johnson though. I think he makes the final 53, because there isn't anyway someone isn't picking him up if he doesn't.
