Preseason Week 1 Gameday Chatter | Cowboys at Chargers| 08/13/2015

Justin Durant almost just had a pick six on Mariota.

Read the screen pass perfectly and picked it off.

 

[1bigfan13]

Another Mariota turnover.

Yeah....umm. I don't want to hear jack shit about him not throwing an INT in camp anymore.

 

[1bigfan13]

He's bounced back with a couple of nice long throws.

 

[Genghis Khan]

We're about to get our first look at Mariota. He's a guy who I think will be a huge bust but all the talk out of Titans camp suggests that he's performing very well.

We'll see how he performs against live bullets tonight.

I am rooting hard for mariota to be awesome. If that happens eagles fans will be jumping off bridges in droves.

 

[1bigfan13]

Impressive bounce back drive by the Mariota and the Titans.

 

[Jiggyfly]

Collins looked real good I have no idea why he is not getting a shot at RT or swing tackle Weems is too weak and does not react well, I think things will change going forward with Colins.

Coleman, Jack Crawford and Russel looked good I could see Hayden getting minimal snaps this tear.

White looked great, Jones looked tentative he needs to have more ball awareness.

Both Johnson and Seastrunk looked very average there needs to be other backs brought in sooner than later.

Escobar looked great as a pass catcher and ok as a blocker but he is grabby his initial contact is good but he needs to sustain.

 

[Deuce]

Parnell looks very Jeremy Parnell-like in his Jags debut. To me, that's just barely better than Weems.

As an aside, a healthy Gerhart and the rest of the Jags backs have looked solid. I wouldn't mind grabbing one once They are cut when Yeldon comes back.

I think that's an improvement for the Jags tho.

Certainly not worth what they paid him but they had to make moves to get Bortles a little extra protection.

 

[Smitty]

Makes it sound better when he uses the plural like there were many different reporters who said it.

I didn't use plural... Try reading it carefully.

 

[Smitty]

So the guy that he blocked one on one on that play was the wrong guy? Doesn't make any logical sense but please continue to make shit up. You hate Leary so much that you feel the need to talk shit on the guy even when he did nothing wrong. Of course the guy only played one series but I'm not even sure you realized that.

And you are so far up his ass that you can't stand to hear the truth about him being an inconsistent player. But again, please lecture me some more about the assignments you know he didn't screw up, coach.

I hope you don't cut your wrists once Collins proves how much superior a player he is.

And Gus Johnson does have better vision then Tanner. It takes all of two seconds to see that.

And it takes all of two seconds to see Leary is not a great player, but an inconsistent one. Don't cry too much.

 

[L.T. Fan]

Ahhhhhhh! The season is underway.

 

[Rev]

Ahhhhhhh! The season is underway.

You shall not try to change the subject. You will enjoy the same irony that I am and that's Smitty telling somebody not to lecture him.

 

[Simpleton]

There were several times last night where Collins lost leverage/balance in both pass protection and run blocking. He looked good for the most part, and he flashed big time on a few plays, but I don't know if he is going to be better than Leary in 4 weeks.

In 2 or 3 months he most likely will be, but right now he needs to refine his game big time. You can certainly see the ability and raw talent though, he will be a Pro Bowler at some point in his career.

 

[Smitty]

For what it's worth, I don't think Collins is better than Leary... yet. Will be soon though.

I'm just pointing out that Leary does have flaws. He's no where near the caliber of Smith, Martin and Frederick. He's more on par with Free. As in, replaceable.

And he will be. Soon.

 

[NoDak]

I'm rather enjoying watching him bust on CRock in another thread for saying he watched the game film, yet he's famous for claiming "he watches the games".

The season is underway, indeed.

So as not to disappoint you, I did watch the game and saw Leary struggle a bit... so did Sturm for that matter... so C-rock needs to re-evaluate who he is accusing of "making shit up."

 

[Simpleton]

I loved Tyler Lockett coming out and he's done nothing to change my mind in his first game here with some nice returns, including a TD return. He'll never be an elite number 1 WR but he will be a damn fine 2 and an elite returner.

So just forget Leary played against a starter and Collins was against scrubs for most of the game.

Collins looked very good but let's see him against starter quality guys before claiming he is going to be better, by the way can you even name any of the guys Collins played against?

 

[boozeman]

I dunno about you all, but I was excited by Collins.

Leary did well too.

Translation: He's certainly no Zach Martin.
