2007 Pre-Season Discussion

[Warhammer]

Looking around the division there were some brutal games. I know people were playing their 4th string guys, but there were still some stunning things.

Sante was 5 of 14! I really hope this guy pans out, just not while he is in the division!


Outside of our long run, we only rushed for 3.9 YPC. Not a Hartford like performance if you ask me.

We had 3 drops in the game, hopefully this is a one game fluke.

Our OL performed well. Everyone that played on the OL that had at least 2 KROsgot at least 1 KRB. The worst KRB% was 33%. I'll take that any day.

Lawrence's offense looked damn impressive. They averaged 6.0 YPC rushing and 10.4 YPA passing! :shock:

It looks like the Pirates and Indians played in Cleveland...

The play of my 54th-60th players is concerning to me...

[Warhammer]

My 61st guy just couldn't make the cut...

We played really well, 338-203 in yardage, just couldn't punch it in, and gave up a TD after a fumble gave them a short field.

Ambrose Jones turned in a good game, 6 targets, 4 catches, 75 yards. He might have some magic left in him, we'll see.

Fortune had 2 rushes for 20 yards, then sprained his ankle.

Webb had 3 hurries, but no tackles.

My defense looked good. Of course we were playing backups and so was Texas. But anytime you get 10 hurries, 5 sacks, 3 INT's and 10 pass defensed you must be doing something right.

Seminoles never taught Scott how to run without getting an owie

Hope the IFL enjoyed their sneak peak at Fortune - lol

And the guy that did it might not even make my team. His 15 minutes of fame: "I injured Scott Fortune!"

[P. Diddy]

D'Arcy played almost the whole game, missed all of his KRBO's but didn't allow a sack. But he's a center. So what?

The real test is for right guard. I have a couple of young guys that are neck and neck for the starting job.

1(11) pick WR Sherman Jarvis had 8 catches for 131 yards and a TD. Had 2 scrubs throwing to him the whole time too.

[Argot]

I thought Jarvis was the best WR in the draft...I wish he would have fell.

[Warhammer]

My top two were Jarvis and Weaver I think. I figured that Jarvis wouldn't get to me at 1.12, and Weaver would be a reach there. Jarvis is a good fit in that Ogre offense. Thankfully, I don't have to play them for another 3 years.

[Matt]

MLB Chris Sanborn was on fire this game tackling everything that moved.

QB Dwight Burger wasn't very impressive. To add fuel to the fire, QB JB Fogerty played a terrific game.

My undrafted rookie RB Frank Bazzanka had a good game.

Can't wait for the real thing though

i agree. was shocked he was the last of the big 3 wr's to go.

[SteveBsFan]

Well, my kicker had a good game, 4-4 and 1-1 XP.

Markel looked ok so far, 12-22, 157 yards, 7.1 avg.

Beckner had 5 catches for 67 yards, not too bad by my passing game considering the offensive line I put out there.

Regarding the 3 WR's, I thought Beckner was the best all around receiver, but I was leaning towards Field because of his volatility (I would have hated a bust, glad Beckner didn't). From what I remember, Beckner was fastest, or 2nd fastest, and the tallest.

Beckner sacrifices getting downfield and route running for his ability to avoid drops, which seems to be a weakness for Jarvis. That fits in with my system better, as i'm looking for more sure handed receivers. I don't like the lack of courage, but that wasn't a strong point for any of the three.

I'm not sure who the better overall receiver is, but I know Beckner is already at a disadvantage this season with Markel throwing to him opposed to Stclair. The other two should put up better numbers with Terrell and Caro.
