Cannon has always played well in real games. People just need to stop thinking preseason games mean anything.Pleasantly surprised by Marcus Cannon.
He may not be the savior, but hes certaintly better than Sanchez at this point. You're high If you think that.
CityOfChampions said:I hope Edelman is okay. It already sucks we're without Gronk for the 49ers and Texans games. I hope our defense can keep getting turnovers.
A nice game from Arrington make me hopeful that the optimistic Talib scenario is playing out: the entire secondary improves because everybody's role shifts toward their strengths.
Dennard, a natural press corner, gets to play that style. McCourty, who is NOT a press corner, can use his range, vision, ball skills and leadership as a deep safety. Arrington -- a good slot guy, but a liability in other roles -- returns to the slot. And Talib takes over the other cb job. So 4 of the 5 base nickel db positions are upgraded with one acquisition.
No Mankins
No Vollmer
No Gronk
No Jones
That's 4 pro bowl caliber players the Pats went without today. Pretty sick.
Step 2: On first down, call a running play without the running back knowing. Have quarterback Mark Sanchez run into the backside of his own offensive lineman Brandon Moore, fall down, fumble, and watch Patriots safety Steve Gregory return the ball 32 yards for a score. This may have been the defining play of the Sanchez era. We can't wait to see the cover of the New York Post on Friday.
