tsylvester Posted August 21, 2023 Posted August 21, 2023 Why on earth have this fake game at night, on Monday night too boot.... oy Here is to no injuries, to gaining game experience for the 2nd teamers and rookies. I expect we will see Huntley for the first half, he seems to move the ball around better so that the pass catchers get a chance to shine Quote
GrubberRaven Posted August 21, 2023 Posted August 21, 2023 Nope, its the Johnson/Brown Jr show. I sense our streak ends tonight... Quote
oldno82 Posted August 21, 2023 Posted August 21, 2023 Huntley still nursing his injury tweak. And yes the streak could quit possibly end tonight but the game will be good experience for the backups. Keeping my fingers crossed on the injury front. And I have no idea why ESPN is showcasing this game. Seems stupid to me. Quote
cravnravn Posted August 21, 2023 Posted August 21, 2023 Enjoy watching Touchdown Baltimore..Does Bruce Laird age? Quote
varaven45 Posted August 22, 2023 Posted August 22, 2023 Not bad showing for 2nd/3rd stringers only down 17-14 at the half. If Proche doesn’t botch TD pass, we would have been up 7-10 points at the half. Washington played their starting QB Howell and WR McLauren and yet we’ve been right there. BTW - we’ve got to keep 34 Keeton Mitchell on the roster. Gordon looks slow, not breaking tackles. Quote
papasmurfbell Posted August 22, 2023 Posted August 22, 2023 Put this person on suicide watch. The most important thing in his life has ended. That kid #34 was pretty good for what I saw of him. He is really fast. Quote
oldno82 Posted August 22, 2023 Posted August 22, 2023 Zay Flowers is really special. Keep Keaton Mitchell. Hope nobody got hurt. Quote
GrubberRaven Posted August 22, 2023 Posted August 22, 2023 Harbaugh said in presser, no major injuries I was impressed that our depth all played well and the offense was fun to watch too. Should be a good season if the starters play as hard. Frustrating we can't bring more sacks to the table. They get back there, but they just don't wrap it up. Quote
tsylvester Posted August 22, 2023 Author Posted August 22, 2023 As the late, great Roy Orbison sang; It's over, it's Ooover! Perhaps most impressive about this useless streak is that there are only 2 players remaining on the team from when it began, per ESPN... Didn't watch it but for the first two quarters, but they put up 28 pts with back ups of the back ups. That pick in the endzone was one weird play and another reason you have to catch the ball with your hands, not your body. Quote
GrubberRaven Posted August 22, 2023 Posted August 22, 2023 Yeah, I think Proche is the odd man out... Quote
tsylvester Posted August 22, 2023 Author Posted August 22, 2023 Yeah, he and Duv I think have ended their time here. Curious to see what they do with the tight ends, all of them played very well, showed that they can be starters. Quote
GrubberRaven Posted August 22, 2023 Posted August 22, 2023 Duv's saving grace is return skills, but now we have that RB... Quote
tsylvester Posted August 22, 2023 Author Posted August 22, 2023 Not sure they have the roster space to keep a return specialist, will they keep 6 wide outs, 4 tight ends, 4 runningbacks? I think we've seem enough to keep just two qbs, leave one on the ps, be emergency on game day. 8 offensive linemen, 5 or 6 along the defensive line, 10 dbs/ safeties, 6 linebackers, long snapper, punter, kicker.... Should be fun Quote
oldno82 Posted August 22, 2023 Posted August 22, 2023 The entertainment level should be really high this year as the offense provides some fireworks but I worry about all the injuries to the secondary especially if we can't generate more pass rush than we saw last night. On too many plays Howell had all day to throw. Quote
tsylvester Posted August 22, 2023 Author Posted August 22, 2023 They didn't run too many packages, stunts, twists, so it wad pretty vanilla from the defensive line perspective. Sacks will, hopefully, come.... Quote
oldno82 Posted August 22, 2023 Posted August 22, 2023 I'd be curious to know how many snaps Oweh and Ojaba had. I didn't hear their names mentioned at all. By the way, I was disappointed in the play-by-play guys...seemed they always were talking up the Commanders. 1 Quote
