I Was impressed!!!

Well one thing I saw from JC tonight that is brand new and awesome was the little fake, taking the defender out of the play, just before Jason ran in for a TD. That's smarts, calm and athleticism all at work.

...i'm not saying that was the main positive, JC showed a lot tonight, but that one thing was awesome.

I'm totally sold on Marco Mitchell. Definitely NFL material already with his exceptional rout running skills. I would even go so far as saying he's ahead of Kelly in that department who seems to struggle with selling routes and looking for the ball.


Kudos to the Offense...they didn't fold and kept at it. Captain K owned Patriot DE, LB and secondary. It feels good to be a Skins fan! Hail mofo, Hail!

He's NFL material and possibly ahead of a top prospect already on the roster for a year why not give him the opportunity? I guess the question becomes who would we keep instead of him. None of the other rookie WRs bring what he does.

Kelly needed to spin in the air to make that endzone pass a TD...I think he'll get there. We just started doing the "fancy sh%t" if you will and things will start to come together.

JC looked good, had some good drives and the play to Cooley was very nice. good run in TD against a stingy NE Defense. CB had a pick where he clearly underestimated the defender who hit another gear and played the ball well but he came back and had a nice strike to Marko for the TD so overall i think he did ok. has to learn to throw it away on 3rd down inside fg range.

Let's not drink too much of that "Soups" kool-aid. We still stalled out 3 consecutive series with bad inaccurate throws. We can not keep putting our defense back on the field so soon time after time. Campbell still needs to work on his accuracy on the short throws. I'm glad Brennan redeemed himself tonight before everyone put those pollsup of Daniel over him which does not make any sense. Daniel just plays pitch and catch and Brennan is actually running the offense.

Campbell still needs to improve on a lot of things, but given how much negativity and ridiculousness I've seen from the JC haters, I'm going to be drinking the kool-aid all week long.

I didn't notice any accuracy problems on the short stuff, do you remember any specific plays?

Also, Moss should have caught that short 3rd down throw that would have moved the chains.

I'm sure some people are going to hang on to that pass where JC overthrew Moss, when he had a guy hitting him as he released.

Awfully tough to overthrow a guy like Moss. At first look I almost thought Moss wasn't going 110% on it, I'm not sure though. Yeah he was getting hit and rushed it a bit, that shit happens.

[Lotus]

It looked to me like Moss may have slipped a bit.

It was a catchable ball. I'm not down on Tana here, as it would have been a difficult catch. But it was not a terrible throw, either, and on other occasions Tana will make that grab.

Precisely. The pass was barely behind Moss...not really a factor at all. Moss simply dropped the pass on a huge 3rd down. Nothing on JC there.

I was watching a different game, Brennan basically lost the game with the INT, then the sack for the extra long field goal attempt.

Yeah man nevermind the long return allowed by the ST that let them start in fg range and the constant flags drawn by the backup Oline that killed drives. The FG had the distance but was wide. Its ALL Colts fault. Not sayin he was stellar but to blame the loss all on him is pretty harsh. How many penalty yards were there? how many return yards were given up? Zorn seemed pleased with his play except for the int.

If I'm correct that int he threw (3rd one in three games and I believe the second in the red zone) was a 14 point swing or atleast a 10 point swing so yes Colt lost the game.

Well, that's ridiculous...Colt threw an AMAZING pass to mitchell for the td to nulify his pick-6. So no...he did NOT lose the game.
That being said, I was not impressed with Colt. He did not look good overall. He had a couple moments, but overall I'm not impressed...yes, I said it...I'm not impressed. I hope he still makes the team, I love the guy. But he is CERTAINLY leaving the door open for Chase.

On a side note, I do like what I saw out of Mason.
