Feh. He runs like a spaz and his hands seem unreliable.

You will regret this when he is tearing up the league.

 

[boozeman]

I thought Rush looked better than he's getting credit for. For a QB3, it's not bad.

Feh.

 

[boozeman]

He has some quicks when running his routes.

I haven't watched the full game yet but I did get through the first ~2 quarters and thought Williams looked better than Biadasz. It's hard to tell what's what since so many guys are out on both sides and the sample size is so small, but I wouldn't be totally shocked if we started McGovern/Williams at LG/C rather than Williams/Biadasz.

Yeah Biadasz got walked back on more than one occasion. I don't have a great feeling about him.

It's not out of the question that McGovern is a better player than Badazz. You might improve two positions at once by making that move.

Williams has to be a better center though and I'm not convinced of that yet. Otherwise just move Williams to the bench and play McGovern if he is a better LG than Williams.

Keep in mind though that Williams was a literal embarrassment for like his first year or two with how badly he was getting beaten at times. We were spoiled by guys like Martin and Frederick being immediate contributors but sometimes it takes OL 2-3 years to build their bodies to the point where you start seeing their true ability.

This is Biadasz's first real offseason, so while Williams may certainly be better now, it doesn't mean Biadasz is a bum. It definitely makes for an interesting decision next year though when Williams is a FA while McGovern will be on the last year of his deal.

If Williams moves to center and plays at a high level I don't see how you can let him go.

I think the issue is more Biadasz at center than Williams at LG.

 

[boozeman]

Said this last night. I get it that they are trying players out, but the units looked bad all the way around.

He needs to stop watching 9

 

[Shiningstar]

1 pre season game and we have our new offensive line.

I'm not that concerned. We definitely didn't have our primary returners, or our primary kicker, and I'm guessing we didn't use a lot of our primary coverage guys.

Admittedly I really like Biadasz. I didn't pay that close of attention to him against the Steelers but I thought what he did last season was really good when he played. He was better than Looney at center. Williams got one series at center and again I can't say I paid that close of attention to it. I couldn't even tell you which series he played.

 

[Cowboysrock55]

Considering our punter was doing the kicking it's pretty silly to be concerned about missed field goals. The only thing I'd be worried about is that we aren't really giving the real special teams guys a chance to get ready for the season. But it was a freebie preseason game. There is still plenty of time to get those guys in a groove.

Also, Pearson is too old to be getting ratchet tattoos.

And, his pants were Urkel high, like old men sometimes do.
