and...in Sarge's defense...I know exactly what he was thinking as I was thinking the same thing about the defense in the first half. I just wasn't fast on the trigger and waited for the second half to unfold!!
Goal...I call em as I see em. And RG has a lot of exploitable weaknesses. he knows the system and can execute it...that is his great strength. imagine if we had a QB who had the whole package!
Don't get me wrong, Al. Rex is not the long term answer; he will not take this team deep in the playoffs, imo. But he played better than expected today and I thought he looked better than you gave him credit for. He is flawed certainly, and if we do not address that position in the off season, I will be as upset as you.
But for today? Very pleasant surprise. Enjoy it!
Damn man. NBC just showed the TD pass to Gaffney again. Hell of a throw by Rex. Hell of a throw.
lol at the negative nancies in this thread. you guys are like the 2 old guys in the balcony at the muppet show...
Would it surprise anyone if Trent becomes a very good RT for many years? He seems lost at LT and Brown would prefer the left side anyway. In a year or two, Coach can find a good LT for the ZBS in the draft or FA.
My $0.02.
boone.....I'll say this one last time. he won the game and that's what counts. but you can see the flaws...they are there every game. you are free to ignore them and accept what we have. I will enjoy the ride...but ultimately want better. we will have to have better to get to the next level.
anywho...enough of this already. how bout that Hightower? his step to the hole is lightning fast!
He did play a very good play Boone. He could win the Superbowl and Al would still post a list of negatives in how he played the game.
He may never be a Tom Brady or Peyton Manning, but this team can win a lot of games if he can play this well. Especially if the Oline get's it together.
Sad to me that, after throwing for 300 yards (and minus some bad drops could've been much more), 2 TDs, no ints, and a QB rating over 100 that our starter talks about how he 'has a lot of haters' on national tv. When asked what he proved today, he basically said 'nothing, it's just one win'.
He didn't have a lot of time to throw today, got roughed up, and he did things you say he can't do Al. He moved in the pocket to buy time, he threw it all over the field, and he scored points in the red zone. He made some bad plays too, like almost all NFL qbs do every Sunday. But not many of them.
He deserves praise. He played a very, very nice game.
Mark Rypien had flaws that you could see in every game.boone.....I'll say this one last time. he won the game and that's what counts. but you can see the flaws...they are there every game.
Rex was probably referring to the multiple emails Al has sent him about how he's no good lol.
Rex did have a few bad plays, but it's important to note how he was getting hit hard regularly throughout the game and kept getting up and standing tough in the pocket. To complain about about high throws and throwing off the back foot after that performance under that kind of pressure is comedic.
no....you seem to forget the Gints dropped some critical passes early on that could have made things very different.....and he did not connect on any long passes. eventually.....that's gonna end up shrinking the field......
You haven't joined any rooms.
