Re: Smoot Lays The Smack Down (Week 5)

The team did an excellent job. The offense gets a A- and the defense gets an A+. No one deserves to be smacked down, but I saw a few things that irritated me quite a bit.

Ladell Betts - At least try to block someone in pass protection. The one time I saw you stay in to pass protect, two defenders came after Jason and you looked at both of them but didn't touch either of them.

Reed Doughty - On the punt return for a TD, you took a bad angle, appeared to jog to the sidelines, and whiffed on Jackson. If you can't make plays on defense, at least make plays on special teams.

Durant Brooks - Need I say more?

Re: Smoot Lays The Smack Down (Week 5)

I'm REALLY enjoying this, especially since my two best friends are HUGE Skins haters and love to talk shit.

All I'll say is we need to generate more pass rush. Two weeks without a sack is pretty unacceptable.

But our offensive execution has been awesome and pass coverage has been phenomenal. When looking at the schedule in the preseason, I said we'd be lucky to be 2-3 after the first 5, and had a realistic chance at 1-4. Boy am I glad I was wrong.

Adding to that...

Chris Horton - When a player with the ball goes down in the pros, the play is not over, next time do touch the player. Some people say that Rogers was at fault, but he was coming with enough momentum that had he try to touch Jackson he would have hit him and probably would have drawn a foul. Horton had enough time to slow down and touch him.

Devin Thomas - I think you are leading the league in offensive pass interferences, STOP IT!

ARE - Sure you threw a TD, but you drop three balls. Work on that.

Yeah, those were very costly. On the third one you could see how annoyed Campbell was.
