Week 3 Positives
First off, the NFC East has remained unbeaten outside of our division. How can this not be the toughest division in the league? Now the weekly top five positve things to come from the game.
Greg Blache - In back to back weeks he has come up with a gameplan to shut down a high-powered offense. One play over 20 yards all game? 17 points all game? Two turnovers against a team who didn't have any through the first 2 games? Going on a limb here, Blache is better than Williams. I was frustrated watching Edge gash us, but Blache proved that he knew more than the fans by letting them run and not caring. Shawn Springs - Held Boldin to two catches for 11 yards (Boldin's TD came on the rare play that Smoot was on him). He played physically against one of the best in the league while giving up height and weight. If he plays like this he won't get picks because QB's won't throw it when he is blanketing that tight. Also, he played tremendously on the punt coverage team. Rocky McIntosh/ Carlos Rogers - Both had good stat lines but more impressive is how they have completed their comebacks from horrible knee injuries from last year. It's good to see them each contribute to a TO in the same game. Jason Campbell - 22-30 for 193 yards, 2 TD's and most importantly, no ints. He isn't forcing anything and is finding second and third options. Add in his two rushing first downs and this was one of his most complete games. He seems to feed off the crowd and exudes the confidence that is so important in a QB. FedEx Field - 2-0 at home feels good but the "we want dallas" chant at the end is nice. It's Dallas week guys and we're 2-1. I think the noise frustrated Warner all game and energized the team. We definitely have a home field advantage again. Nice!
