Vandy is looking worse now.... I cant tell if he is figuring it out and getting more frustrated?

Special Teams.... when are we going to break one... it seems we are NO THREAT when we get the ball.

TO has to get this fixed.... its getting in his head now... similar to Vandy.... just TO gets more chances... I would like to see more production from him consistently.... 100 yards a game is great... but I want the GREAT TO to show up

Yes we are getting more pressure... but we need to start sacking and get more pressure more consistently.... I know we seem to be turning the corner here.... so lets hope

We can only wait and see here?

Austin looks better each week, Newman we take it to the house this year!

Agreed, his drops will hurt as competition gets better.

Hatcher has looked the part the last two weeks with consistent pressure.
Maybe we can put it together?

If know T.O.'s history in S.F. and in Phily, he always has a lot of drops during the season and after 10 years in the league, it is foolish to think that it will change now. With a player like T.O., you take the good with the bad and call it a day. When it is all said and done, he will catch 85-90 pasess, 1200 yards and 12 TD's.

i cant put a couple of those drops on TO,the first ball was way short,the one was an extremely hard catch way over his head,and even the touchdown ,the defender had his hands in there.

IMHO it is a mental block with Vandy. His kickoffs and XP we're flawless a couple of times. Then it just went down hill..

Correct....there are plenty of other things to fret about.

I also wouldn't worry that Owens drops THE critical pass in a playoff game...if memory serves correct his concentration improves when the games are on the line.

Like him or not, no one can deny he's a money receiver.

Yeah he's on pace for around 1100-1200 yards despite being surrounded by a lot of weapons.

yup TO has always had drops, aikman even mentioned that he doesn't have great hands, but TO has made himself into a top flight wr without the physical skills apart from speed, which isn't even all that.
