Hopefully, you can follow who is saying what. Generally, Brint responding to Growler's comments. Normally, I wouldn't pay much attention to something like this, but Brint really took it to Growler. Growler knows less about football than I thought, and must also be going blind.
G: I sat with a very knowledgeable fan who posts on here, and on esugar
uh-huh... sure. Brint: Who was it? Why didn't you name him or her? I know people have their doubts but it's curious that you're trying to gain relevancy by citing another poster but not naming them.
G: We both continued to shake our heads in digust at how bad our offense looked today
B: 430 yards on 95 plays. Nothing flashy but that's 4.5 yards per play. Only put 24 points on the board though. Not enough for 95 plays, needs to be double that.
G: Pick-six-Ryan threw another today, and could have easily thrown two of them, as Sandry just missed another.
B: The one that Lee bounced up in the air off his hands? Yep it was a pick-6 but I'm not sure how much you can fault Phillips for that. Now I would question why we got to the 4 power running with Lee to then throw 3 times... but that pick 6 is a rough break. Sandry did almost have one, great play by him, glad he's on our team.
G: Two TDs were on totally blown coverages.
B: One... to Simis. The other two were contested passes in the endzone. Were you actually paying attention?
G: No running game.
B: Combined stats aren't great but I liked what I saw from Lee and Green. Keep in mind they gave Calhoun 2 touches to just stay fresh and then took him out. We were witnessing a battle for the backups today.
G: 4 dropped passes on perfect throws
B: Not sure if it was 4, I recall at least two (Horner and Toure), but there were too many drops today
G: Lots of touch-sacks
B" You mean 4... by "lots" hahaha. Big improvement over the spring game which seemed like there were 400 touch sacks.
G: Poor O-line blocking
B: Disagree, it wasn't great but it was better than the spring. Just 4 sacks, Lee and others with serviceable YPC stats.
G: We ended the scrimmage with yet another blocked extra point
B: From the backup kicker, the starter was perfect on the day.
G: Our KO coverage would have given-up a long TD in real-time today
B: Hhahahahaha, no it wouldn't have. Four of them touched Toure and let him go. He was effectively stopped at the 25. Again, not paying attention.
G: Phillips is rapidly playing himself out of a starting job.
B: While he didn't do a thing to really grab the job he was also the only one until very late in the game to actually get the team to the RZ, did it 3 times in fact.
B: Pathetic sugar-coating, and others who were there know it too! Oh, and Toure never was touched on the KO return, which is why he bothered to take it 95 yards to-the-house. He would have stopped after the whistle blew, which it never did since he was not touched. It is YOU who needs to pay attention. Tweeting between plays with such revelations such as "Akem made a nice catch" keeps you from watching the game.
B: Better get your eyes checked old man! Both kick returns had no tackling by design.
