I was out of town so some of this may have been discussed already, but I watched tapes of both the games over the weekend and here are some observations.
-Penalties- we improved against GB, which is a good sign- I just hope more discipline can be imposed by the time the season starts.
-ST and Defense look unreal, not that it should surprise anyone at this point.
-Losman's making me nervous. He had a few balls tipped, missed a wide open Moulds against Indy, had the fumble and the stupid play for the safety (that was called back).... his decision-making isn't quite where it needs to be and it's giving him happy feet. My fear is that teams won't respect his ability and they'll put 8 in the box to stop McGahee just like they did early on last season.
-Ron Edwards looks terrble. He holds his ground but can't push the opposing linemen into the backfield and he doesn't make tackles. He looked alright in pass rushing situations.
-Jason Peters SUCKS. If Gandy goes down, we're probably going to have to move Teague to LT and play Preston or Tucker at Center.
-Who is our long snapper? The snaps on the FG's looked bad almost every time.
Now for some good stuff:
-I know they haven't been playing against the first team offenses, but Jabari Greer and Constantin Ritzman played great in both games. Eric King also looks decent.
-Lee Evans is great and I have no concerns about him replacing Moulds as our #1 when the time comes in the next year or 2.
-Gates, Williams and Lee all look decent. I think the competition has really motivating them.
-Who is George Wilson? I doubt he'll make the team cuz of our WR depth but he's definitely made some plays in preseason.
-Holcomb looks great and I have no concerns about him if he has to come in and play for Losman. He made a great move to avoid a sack against Indy.
-the first team O-line hasn't been spectacular but so far they've been good enough. Gandy continues to look like he can get the job done.
