I don't know about drafting them but Malcolm and JC were home grown and developed here.Jack Jones looks like he could be a stud. Ever since talib the Patriots have somehow found the blueprint to keep drafting or developing solid corners.
One penalty was illegal formation - I think he started moving forward in motion - I don't remember the last time I saw that called on someone. Other was a false start. Frustrating for everyone, I'm sure.
Your wish is my command, please see below:
Yeah, I like what we did on the offensive side as well with our wr's, a lot more balance.Woah. Talk about spreading the snaps around on defense!
I know we're beating on Wynn a lot BUT 4 of those damn 6 penalties are bogus in my book, 3 holds and 1 for lining up too deep. I just think he's getting some awful attention from the refs. I see these games with people getting absolutely mugged, then I see holding calls on Wynn (and yesterday Wise) and I'm like, "There's no hold there for heaven's sake!"Wynn has something like 7 penalties in 5 games. Not to mention all the sacks he has given up.
I think I'm wrong about the Bears game...I was at the '94 game in Chicago ... I know we didnt wear the throwbacks for that game... and I looked thru the photo logs, and can't find a game where we played the bears in throwbacks...
EDIT Patsylicious nailed it - we played the Packers at home in All Whites in '94...
The reds/away game i was referring to earlier was the 1994 thanksgiving game in detroit...
I thought I accounted for all the throwback uniform games in the Uniform thread... Though, it was hardly an exhaustive search, so it is quite possible I missed a game or two
Woah. Talk about spreading the snaps around on defense!
He said he worked on conditioning this offseason so he'd be better down the stretch this year.I think its a great sign that judon only had to be in 55% of the snaps. We need to keep him fresh for the stretch, wondering if he was just burnt out at the end last year. Uche and wise stepping up would be huge
This team will come together even more. All the early panic about Mac, KB, the TE's, the OL... it may take a game against a pitiful defense to give the guys confidence. But, don't think for a minute BB is considering keeping Zappe over Mac this year. Don't forget all the superlatives BB raved about Mac's growth and leadership coming in this year and through preseason. His early struggles were 90% adjustment to all the new personnel and offense, and Mac was forcing things to compensate (even while throwing some dimes down the field). If he's anything, he's a guy that can play within a system - and that system is being ironed out right now. It just so happens that a backup reaped the benefits against a #32 defense. But, Mac would've lit up the Lions for 2+ passing TD's and 350+ yds, because Zappe is still getting the rookie game-manager treatment. I'm thrilled he handled it, and hopefully can manage another safe game @Browns, but this offense and team will take another big step up when Mac returns - he didn't forget how to play and I guarantee his confidence is not shaken, only a fire lit.
