PRE-SEASON GAME ONE THOUGHTS

It was nice seeing Farwell back and making the first special teams tackle of the game!



Welcome back Heath and EJ !

I thought Sage looked real real solid. He was hitting those simple timely routes we had problems hitting last year... those 7 and 8 yard slant and outs ETC. Negative people will say how it was against back up secondary but I think that's not relevant. The routes he hit were all well covered, the ball was put on the money every tie, in stride. It doesn't matter if you have a all pro corner or a back up one step behind your WR, it's the same challenge for the quarterback regardless- making the "routine plays routine" as Chilly likes to say. These are the keys to third down and red zone proficiency. (which we were bad at last year)

Our defensive pressure was really good throughout the game. I was impressed with how quickly they got to Manning.

Our RBs all looked great. It's a testament to the line for one, but also I think we have a real real deep RB core.

I was sad not to see HARVIN out there, I wasn't sure why he wasn't but we will see him this coming friday so...

EDIT

We just signed farve. dang!

no words (but im pleased)
