Luckily it;s an off-day for the Rockies.

Cutler should be getting 10-12 snaps, which is what you'd expect in the first game.

No kidding

about the off day. Now I don't have to worry about DVRing the Bronco game and/or flipping back and forth.

I am so ready for some football

I just forgot to order the wings in time to make sure they get here in time for kickoff.  Oh well.  It is the preseason after all.

Love Cutler's arm. Nice throw to Walker.

I think

I'm going to like the Chris Henry era.

by Knepster on Aug 13, 2007 6:14 PM MDT reply actions   0 recs

I don't know about Chris Henry

but this Travis Henry looks like a punishing runner.

*hehe*

Of course it's Travis.

Hahaha

Yeah that too. That's what I get for not looking at what I'm typing. My fingers type whatever they want sometimes. Muscle memory or something.

Yeah...

...me too mate! And the Jay Cutler era too =)

TD =)

Travis Henry looks great so far.

Thank Montrae Holland for that TD

He got his man and a linebacker ready to plug the hole with a cut block.

For not having arguably the top two starters up front, the holes were fairly big that drive.

Time for some Patrick Ramsey action.

Nickle D is one for one

not a sack, but a good hurry by Dumervil.  Moss also walked his lineman into the lap of the QB.

D looking

less than stellar. That's why it's preseason.

BTW I'm only typing last names from now on. I figure it's either that or take the time to proof read my posts for obvious errors, but I'll pass on that.

by Knepster on Aug 13, 2007 6:38 PM MDT reply actions   0 recs

It's just the first game of pre-season

but the bar being set by our first team ends doesn't look too high for our rookie to creep in on more of their playing time.  If this is how they'll play the run, than I can live with Moss's style of run D.

Rookies I mean

I'm also excited to see Kennedy and Thomas in action.

Wasn't Bell

#20 last year? As much as I like Bell it's weird seeing #30 on somebody besides TD.

by Knepster on Aug 13, 2007 6:45 PM MDT reply actions   0 recs

Bell looks bigger this year

thus far, I think all three of our backs have run the ball well, which is nice, because Henry isn't the most durable back in the league.

by ohnokoolaid on Aug 13, 2007 6:47 PM MDT up reply actions   0 recs

He does

look bigger. He always looked a bit undersized last year.

by Knepster on Aug 13, 2007 6:48 PM MDT up reply actions   0 recs

Morgan

found his way. Hopefully he can keep those returns up and running.

And Bell looks nice in those runs - with the 30...

Btw

Where's Guru?

What happened to Moss

did he turn his ankle in pursuit?

by ohnokoolaid on Aug 13, 2007 6:53 PM MDT reply actions   0 recs

looks like it might have been

trying to avoid getting caught up with Crowder and Smith.  Or maybe one of them rolled up on him a bit as he tried to avoid solid contact.  I could not really tell from rewinding the DVR.

by MattR on Aug 13, 2007 6:59 PM MDT up reply actions   0 recs

oops, Dilfer not Smith

not paying much attention to the SF substitutions.

by MattR on Aug 13, 2007 7:00 PM MDT up reply actions   0 recs

How about Crowder's acceleration off the edge

once he broke free, he did well to keep pursuit and force the fumble.

by ohnokoolaid on Aug 13, 2007 7:01 PM MDT up reply actions   0 recs

He's back in now

I know

it's Jerry Rice and not a friggin Desperate Housewives person, but the booth interviews still get old. I don't care what Rice's handicap is.

At least Jaws is in the booth

I like him as a color guy.  Everyone else is dreadful, and you know come week one, we'll get Joe Schmoe from some ABC sitcom giving his story of backyard football.

by ohnokoolaid on Aug 13, 2007 7:11 PM MDT up reply actions   0 recs

I like

Jaws, too. Theismann was too much. I'm sure we'll get sitcom people once the prime time shows start. Guess that's why we have a mute button.

I was glad

to see how efficiently the offense worked. Henry looks like a beast for fantasy football.
