    Right AB is 5'10" and he's a legit 5'10" I've stood right next to him and I'm 5' 9 and 3/4"

    But that is where the comparison ends.

    If Ridley continues to run like this, he will/should make the roster. I fear if Conner continues to run like he did, count on him being on IR.

    If the worst that came out of the game was a critique of Decastro,who I have 0 concerns about and Sensabaugh who might not even make the team I think we are doing pretty good so far....
    Also I'm not sure it was Frazier on both those Xtra point penalties,I thought one was assessed to McCullers but I could be wrong....

    DeCastro got owned! I mean Cox is a beast but common man.

    Confusion in the secondary? No. At least Bradley will have some tape of the negativity to make adjustments.

    #92 brought a much needed spark.

    Butler. I understand vanilla but you would think there would be a bit more a more fire and less confusion from this unit.

    Bostic, Horrible. As Lambert mentioned this will be the weak link. I would insert Edmonds next to Williams in which I believe will happen in sub packages. I had more promise for Dirty Red, hope he cleans his play up.

    Dobbs will still be the odd man out.

    Connor was impressive.

    Rudolph played quite well for his first outing but will sit behind Jones for this season.

    Washington is a stud.

    It's only pre season but this defense was disappointing.

    What did Ridley do as a runner that was so great? He did well in space after catching passes. Little to nothing between the tackles. I still want to see Franklin run some. :cool:

    I don't know about great Mac, but you still have to give a nod towards being slightly impressed because of the patch work OLine he had to run behind and still making positive yardage. It would be easy to say his effort was so so but the level of play around him and against him being more college level he did make a solid showing.

    The fact that Franklin didn't even log a carry is very telling. As well as Conner, Ridley, and Toussaint played, Franklin and Summers have little chance of making the squad. I think Jaylen Samuels may be headed for the practice squad.

    David Decastro

    Its hard to put Decastro here. But he got taken to school by Fletcher Cox, and got Landry killed. It was All-Pro vs All-Pro, but im still giving David the L here. Quote"

    How do you know? I may have paid 66 to sidestep Cox?

    I didn't get to watch the game till yesterday Mac. Ridley did not impress me much running either. Pats* are pretty good at using players up before letting them go.

    I was lumping the short passing game in with the entire body of work. He ran hard on those receptions.

    What did folks think about Berhe? I was pretty unhappy with many of the tackle attempts (too high & weak). He did much better on his "down low" work but there we at least two plays I was pretty unhappy with (again... weak attempt to wrap up it seemed to me)

    great point and observation, I didn''t see the game (except 3rd qrtr) so I'd be interested in other's thoughts as well...
