Johnson is making some plays

This Anthony Johnson has played well the last few series for the defense.

If you had a RB with the receiving skills of White the between the 20s of Gaffney and the at the goal line power of Blount... I think that back be pretty good.

Anthony Johnson making a case for a spot over Kuhn.

Is it just me or we have the worst 2pt plays in the league? I know it's just pre season but over the years, most of them have been awful.

Thuney had a really good block on White's screen play. Sustained his block for a pretty long time. Play doesn't happen without him

Jesus. Anthony Johnson is QUICK!

Anthony Johnson is seriously showing up. Making the DT group even more crowded.

Time to get rid of McDaniels. I don't care and can't stand it.

Seriously though, it seems like they call these vanilla, generic plays in those situations... for self-scouting purposes, I imagine, since they games are meaningless in preseason.

Long is a guy who will chase a RB all the way if he has to. Guy has a non-stop motor.

IMO, I don't think we should put much stock in the playcalling tonight. It just seems to me that the team is concerned about the run game and want to get a lot of work in on it. If anything, it speaks to their confidence in Jimmy if they're choosing not to give him more experience.

Johnson made the play there but Valentine looks like a special kind of space-eater. Running back had absolutely nowhere to go, Valentine just dominated his man.

 

[Brady6]

Chandler Jones + our own 2nd round pick = Cyrus Jones, Thuney and Mitchell. All 3 look like they could high end starters for a long time.

Not really impressed with Kuhn.

 

[Bobs My Uncle]

Gotta love Flowers and this Johnson kid. Thuney is gonna be an all pro. So fluid and athletic in space.

 

[BobDigital]

Huge night for Johnson. Was not even considering him. Hope Jimmy gets a 2 minute drill here.

 

[primetime]

This could be the best draft class for this team in a decade, and they didn't even have a 1st. Pretty excited with this.

They've ran a whole lot more than pass, at least from looking at my man Thuney so much.....so yeah.
