=================
LMU93 — The Little Things Add UpThe 2nd 4th and 1 call.. Good decision to go for it. Bad call on a slow developing counter play..
Two bad PIs..
A terrible call on the roughing the QB on Sims. Just an awful call..
Wells botched snap. He continues to be the weak link of their offense.
The drop by Cook.. I knew right there they were losig that game.
But to me THE MOST baffling thing about this team is having one QB sack in 3 games.. I don’t know what is happening there.. They consistently rushed/blitzed with 5-6 guys and got absolutely nowhere. Stonewalled most plays. As bad as the blown coverage was on the TD to Bryant the lack of pass rush hung them out to dry too. This team isn’t 1-2 because Bradford got hurt. They’re 1-2 mainly because the defense hasn’t performed nearly up to expectations. The run defense was MUCH better yesterday- in fact almost dominant apart from the 20 and 44 yard runs. But again the lack of almost any pressure on opposing QBs is baffling to me….
I’ll also say I really like what Davis has done at QB. The kid deserves a ton of credit. He’s limited but he’s tough, he’s emotional, gutsy, the team responds to him, and he moves around really well. I think Bradford gets sacked 5-6 times yesterday in that game.. I hope Fisher sees the offense flying around Davis and lets him keep playing.
=================================yeah. i actually had just posted something similar. davis playing well and all is great. but he’s been bolstered by the running game.
bradford played very well when he had that running game going. so people shouldn’t be going way overboard with this. i wanna see how he performs when it’s all on him.
Well it sounds like we kinda know how
he performs when its “all on him” —
he throws INTs. A lot like Romo,
actually.w

Coy Bacon – 1972
That image of Coy Bacon is from a stamp in the “NFL Action 72″ stamp book. You got some stamps when you purchased gasoline at Sunoco stations. Thanks to my dad and one of his friends I have the complete collection.
Aaron Donald reminds me a bit of Coy Bacon.
They both had speed and power.w
v….But after a while, defenses figure you out,
and at that point, you need to have something to give them pause.Exactly.
He’s accurate which is great, but man
that looks like a popgun arm to me.
On the bomb that Quick dropped it looked
like Austin D really loaded up and heaved it.
It looked like it took everything he had
to make that throw.I’d like to take Bradford’s arm and
torso and attach them to Austin D’s
knees.I dunno. Maybe Davis will be a Montana.
We’ll see.w
vYou’e not clearing out the url box where you paste in the image url. So you end up with a double “http.”
After you click img, before you put the image url in the box, clear the box out first.Ahh. I see. Ya have to erase the http thingy and then paste the http thingy.

Les Josephson 1971I’m still very skeptical about Austin D,
and it would not surprise me to see
Casey Austin ‘Case’ Keenum
starting by game 8.But, if Austin D puts together
a good game against Dallas,
(which i am not expecting)
then yeah, i might be in favor
of starting him for a while.
Just to see. Hill can always
come in if he needs to.w
vDamn, that was a good article by Don Van Natta Jr and Kevin Van .
Having said that, there was nothing in it
that surprised me in the least.I was interested in the stat about ‘pretrial diversions’.
The writers said that over 99 percent of defendants charged
with felony assault do NOT get pretrial-diversion-deals.
Only 1 percent get the sweet deals. I’d be curious
about WHO those 1 percent are. Somethin tells me they
are not poor-people.Anyway, what was the driving force behind all the
lying and weaseling by the Ravens, and the NFL in
this scandal? Money? Somethin else?w
v================================
Laram (on GW’s aggressive scheme)Williams aggression with blitzes.
I’m starting to put that info together and when he’s blitzing and shooting a gap, the offense is running mis-direction or counters right through the vacated area.
Shooting gaps and either getting sealed or running past the play, and the lb’s are missing tackles behind them.
That’s why I say that Donald should start alongside Brockers. Let Brockers tie up blockers and Donald get’s one on one.
He’s the pure 3-tech.

=====================Harkey’s injury hurts the running game.
I do not have a good feeling about this game, at all.
Harkey may be my favorite player.
It just aint the same without
Harkey.w
v“I would play Austin Davis at this point in time,” Cosell said on Frank Cusumano’s Show, The Press Box. “Hill has been a career back up. There’s a reason he’s at the age he is and what (his role is) in the league.” Cosell said Davis played very well against the Bucs, but his arm strength leads something to be desired. “He does not have a real good arm by NFL standards. But…he has poise, he has a good feel for why plays are called and where to go with the ball. He’s got light feet and good movement. He’s got good accuracy,” Cosell said. Cosell also talked about the development of Brian Quick, the Rams defense and previewed the Cowboys game.

Well, my mantra iz,
if the Rams can Run,
and the OLine can protect,
then
it dont matter if its
Hill or Davis.The Cowboys have some game-film
on Austin Davis now.
Should be inter esting.
I’m expectin the kid
to have some trouble this week.
But then i said somethin like that
about Kurt Warner before game two
in 99.w
