Friendos, I recall that Free took some game snaps for Flozell yesterday, what was the deal, Flo injury, blow-out or other? While I'm on the subject, is anyone else concerned that Trent Cole is going make Hotel a turnstile next Sunday?

Getting Free some snaps. I tried to watch him, but I'm no OL expert. He seemed to do alright with the guy he engaged with. I'm not sure he always had his assignments right, though.

It was good that Free got some snaps in a game.

If you didn't notice him in there, then he did just fine....that's the way it is for offensive linemen. :D

People who continue to hate on Flo just have no understanding of how incredibly hard it is to find a great LT.

I agree. When Flo makes a mistake then he will get called out but he also does alot in terms of keeping Romo standing. I was glad to see Free get some time in the game because you don't know when you may be forced to play him.

I can live with the false starts, since they're only 5 yards. It's the 10 yard bonehead ones like leg whips that he can't do.

I don't care for either especially false starts pre snap penalties drive me crazy. The leg whip I tend to be a bit more understanding even though the penalty yardage is bigger. Like many I get mad at Flo for making these mistakes but I also understand he plays a big part in keeping Romo on the field.

You mean like Abraham did when we played the Falcons???? Oh wait, Abraham basically wasn't a factor in that game. Flo shut him down!!!!!

Flo has played good against Cole before so no reason to think he can't again. I think it was a good move to get Free some PT. we were up big and if he has been practicing better why not get the guy some experience. No substitute for experience.

I agree its hard to know what they were asked... but he did have 1 lookout block other thanthat he looked fine! Flo will be fine if Gurode is on time with those snaps, Andre likes to blink b4 he snaps!

Flo has actually had a great year, and an especially great past couple of games. Does not deserve all the greif he gets on here. Good move by our staff though to get Free some PT. Wish they would have done that a little bit more with some other players, would have been nice to get Kitna or McGee in there. But all in all a good move by the staff.

Last week, Jerry said he wanted to see Free get some more snaps, and magically it happened.

Wade was talking up Free pretty strongly at the very end of yesterday's PC. Said he played not so much because the game was out of hand (though obviosly that played a part) but because he's looked really good in practice, has worked hard, and he deserved to play a few plays.

he looked very good run blocking. moved in space very well and just stuck on guys and took them out. seattle was still playing hard too because they were whooping up on bennett and davis, who seemed to shut it down.

imo, i'd like to see him in on goalline and short yardage situations. he can be an asset. put the 3TEs, free, and barber :eek:

pass blocking, eh. he wasn't asked to do it too much, but kerney? did a spin move on him and would've sacked romo. this was on the failed roy williams slant pass.
