Falcons Pregame

[JoeRedskin]

Sorry, just saw that Culliver definitely out. Doesn't change my opinion.

Likely that Blackmon and Breeland start at corners and Jarret the slot corner with Dunbar coming in when they go four wide.

Again, I would take Blackmon over Amerson. Mostly b/c I know Amerson sucks and suspect Blackmon sucks less. I could be wrong but I doubt it. Amerson really, really sucked.

I just looked up the Falcons vs. Eagles game, since we just came off of the win against the Eagles. I predict the game on sunday will be very similar to Eagles vs. Falcons, but the Skins will rush a lot more often and try to control the clock:

Lol, im not saying Amerson is the difference between winning and losing.

Our current CB depth is nil; Amerson would help.

The Skins knew they lacked CB depth when they cut him. What does that say about their belief in him?

At this stage of our team build, I say keep running players through the system until we can find players who can do the job. Once you know a player can't do it, as in the case of Amerson, cut him and try the next guy. You may need to open a lot of oysters before you find a pearl.

Yup. My point exactly.

Who knows ...

Maybe Blackmon is a (very) late bloomer previously hindered by a series of injuries but is now all better and fits our system really really well;

Maybe Deshazor is that crazy UFA who fell between the cracks and just needed an opportunity;

Maybe Q. Dunbar - like D. Young (a LB his rookie year) - is a real diamond in the rough with the potential to be a stud CB in a year or two.

Test the depth and see what you got. This is as good a game as any to try it.
