Thoughts on Skins vs Titans

Daseal · 08-12-2007, 12:37 AM

Considering it's the first game I'm happy with it. As usual the offense takes a bit longer to come around. If our starting crew has another night like that in game 3, then it's time to worry.

Question, how many of the starters on our line played consistently? I know I saw the rookie T from MD in there, but I had company and couldn't quite focus on the game as much as normal. It seemed as if the Titans had a lot of pressure with just the front 4.

Will 10 yard torrents haved this game? Since I missed large chunks?

Did Lloyd get any playtime?

CHIEF CHUCKING MY SPEAR · 08-12-2007, 12:38 AM

the reason i bring brunell up is he still on this roster. He taking a roster spot from someone who could help this team win. The man cant play. Also he Gibb's boy. He painful to watch.

CHIEF CHUCKING MY SPEAR · 08-12-2007, 12:38 AM

lloyd not playing he has a boo boo

Campbell looked ok. Our starting offensive line sucks, Jansen didn't look good, neither did Heyer or Wade. Our backup o-line didn't look good either. Brunell was unimpressive. Collins did decent, led our o to the only scoring drive of the night. If Collins continues to look good and Brunell looks bad, we could see Collins take the #2 spot. Our defense was by far the most impressive thing of the night, great decision to bring Fletcher in, he's a beast. Landry looked ok from what I saw, but I didn't see much of him lol. We still aren't getting any pressure from the d-line, but then again I didn't have high expectations for them to begin with.

Native Skin · 08-12-2007, 12:39 AM

The D looked great. No running game to speak of early on. Brunell is redefining the "over the hill gang" [leader]. So typical of Collins to look good against 3rd stringers. Is he now the 2nd stringer since Brunell is god awful? Not joking here...

The Offense looks like a reflection of 2004 season all over again. Saunders was sweating bullets up in the booth. Man I'd hate to be him right now.
Campbell actually looked alright. Unfortunately the O line just sucks. Please no, not another Patric Ramsey!!

Hail!

Daseal:

Our starting OL looked less than impressive. There were no holes created for our RBs, and the pass protections was horrid. Chris Samuels was out, so that probably had some to do with it.

I don't think Lloyd suited up for this game. I didn't see him in there at all.

CHIEF CHUCKING MY SPEAR · 08-12-2007, 12:42 AM

brunell should be third sting at best. Cut his A-- keep palmer. At least he younger.

Sheriff Gonna Getcha · 08-12-2007, 12:43 AM

JC looked pretty good, that is, when he was protected. Granted, he fumbled twice, but both fumbles occurred when pass protection completely broke down. I was happy just to see him get a few throws downfield.

The O-line was dreadful - they couldn't open running lanes, they couldn't pass protect, etc. I was simply shocked by how poorly they performed.

The first team defense looked pretty nice. London Fletcher looked promising. Laron Landry can definately lay the wood. Imagine how they would have looked had Griffin been in.

He was out due to some minor injury. I believe his vagina is bruised. Sorry, I simply don't like Lloyd, but he actually was held out due to injury.

sandman89 · 08-12-2007, 12:45 AM

Will JC could have done better and threw Good passes and who have been 12-14.But alot of the WR droped the passes which is ok.But I'm impressed with how he turned out to be but also this showed how he would be if it was him being pressure? Wait.............Could this be a test FOr jc you know let the DL of the titans slide to see how JC can do with that much pressure?.

K its em brassing if you had 3 Turnovers 4 Sacks and a 6-0 LEad in the 4th with 2 min's left

I'm impressed with the D but the O i hope was just playing in a bad day .

GusFrerotte · 08-12-2007, 12:46 AM

Game is a mixed bag. O line gave up 4 sacks and the running game was not there, but most of the preseason games you will not see much of a running game anyway. JC was ok, but 6/14 with 2 fumbles isn't going to get the job done. Liked the nice grabs by Moss and Randle El, but that was pretty much all of JC's passing yardage. We need Llyod in the mix to really do the damage. Defensively we were back to '05 form against the run for the most part, but alas.. no pass rush yet again. Secondary is average and so far will get burned for the occasional big play again. So far I do not see much of anything to say we are a playoff calibre team yet.

skinsfanthru&thru · 08-12-2007, 12:47 AM

Fletcher looks like the real deal and finally a good veteran pick up by the FO. Campbell had some moments, but didn't do a good job at all of feeling the pressure. Defense overall looked pretty sharp and got their hands up in the Titans qb's faces, but most of the pressure came on blitzes. Speaking of, Landry looks like he could be a force coming on the safety blitz. Offense definitely wasn't clicking like we'd all want, especially the running game, but we know they'll open up more non basic plays next week.

CHIEF CHUCKING MY SPEAR · 08-12-2007, 12:49 AM

lol SGG

skinsfan_nn · 08-12-2007, 12:52 AM

In a nutshell, the total offense has alot of work to do to include JC, I thought he would look better, but its week one of pre-season. I'm also Keeping in mind we have some key guys out, that will make a difference. JC however needs to learn how to hold on to the football, those mistakes could have been very costly. Same old Brunell. Collins looked better, put together a nice scoring drive! I think it would have to be time to send Brunell packing, looks like the same old same old.

The defense looked much improved! Fleetch played GREAT. LL looks like he is gonna be special, just ask Kerry Collins. As a unit they looked better than I expected, MAJOR PLUS!

The positive ending note we won the damn game! That will be a boost, confidence well needed! 1-0
