I don't want to overreact to one preseason game, buuuut

[RustyBourneHorse]

..yes sir, lets see where it goes. .

Agreed, I think the move is cut Holden and sign Von. Do you have some popcorn to share if we do that?

We're going to the Super bowl! Oh yeaahh!!

Haha, if we get Von Miller, who knows?

What are your "I don't want to overreact to one preseason game, buuuut...." Thoughts?

For me, I think our defence looked much better than during the preseason last year.....and that was against depth pieces on a team that just won the SB. Well done!!!!

Also, I think Camden Brown may have won a roster spot. Question is, who is going to have to make way and what can we get for that player?

We looked well coached. Even Stanback made mention of it. This point in time that is the hugest postive there is.

Wish I could have heard him....I live in Ohio (and love it here), so I was stuck with the Seahawks announcers lol.

I think MVS probably stays, but I could see Brown being safe because Mingo goes. I think Turpin has a special role at KR, but, honestly, id be curious about Brown on returns too. But yeah, I could see Brown at #5 and MVS at #6.

Mingo is gone—time to swallow your pride on that, and I don't think there's room on this roster to keep 6 WRs, anyway. As for MVS at this point in his career, I'd pass. He was never great, but serviceable for a while, but he's 32 years old and has a sub-50% catch rate over the last few years. Brown has to be a lock.

I completely agree about Mingo. He's probably done. And I could see Anthony Smith replacing MVS.

Well done Parker!!

I was told in game thread that this D looked just like last year. Surely someone isn't being honest here

I actually can't remember the last time we looked this much like a disciplined defense.

Parcells era maybe?

Agreed. As good as Quinn was, he relied on takeaways. We lost the turnover battle today (thanks Holden) and still won with this defence. I know it's preseason, but it still says a lot.

Sorry, but whoever told you that doesn't know football. We are now playing a 3-4 Multiple Defense. For years it has been a 4-3 read and react defense. This defense is designed to attack and dictate what the offense does. Not wait for mistakes to happen. This was just CP's vanilla version and with back ups. When the season starts, I promise you, won't look the same.

I love that, even with the little red squiggle under that word telling you differently, that you persist and spell stuff incorrectly.

Deep respect for those who refuse to heed better advice!

That lasted one drive.

I think it could be Turpin that gets cut. Mingo can play special teams.

You didn't need the second that after your clause. Take out your clause and your sentence reads: I love that that you persist and spell stuff incorrectly.

Of course, there is no squiggle denoting improper grammar usage, so you've got me there.

... Just messing with ya.

Haha, thank you. I'm a stubborn horse haha.

I think you are nuts. Turpin isn't going anywhere ... and also plays on special teams as the primary returner.
