It's good to see that Carter looked good again.  I hope he makes the team and can provide that something extra that can get us some pressure and sacks.

I am in the same boat, NFL Network will show it at 3AM Monday morning. 

The QB accuracy sounds much much better as well as most other aspects of the game.

Carter surely seems like a keeper!

Burkhead's versatility means we could keep another LB...or decide some other back end roster position later when Burfict comes off the injured list. With a thin LB corps, I would like to see the cut come from some other group.

I'm probably gonna get flamed for this but why not cut peerman, other guys can do special teams, and we have some talent that needs to be held on to, stash watson or wilder on the PS in case of injury and roll with 4 rb Hill,Gio,Burkhead,hewitt

I think you definitely need to hold on to Watson. I would love to see them give him some runs against 1s or 2s on Thursday. That guy is a tough runner.

Get Carter!

Haha!!!  Yeah, I have my DVR set to record already!  lol

It certainly sounded like we looked better in many ways.

No doubt!!!  I sure hope we find space for him.

I'm a big Peerman fan, but I do think we need to keep Watson, even if it means letting Peerman go.  I like Wilder too.  If we could keep him on the PS another year, that would be great.

Alabama Jesus looked good (talks of "shot arm" may have been premature)

Bodine looked much better (snaps are not an issue in games)

Chris Carter makes the 53 (Has Marvin found his Boulware2)

I think a couple 2nd rounders will be looking for work (Still, Hunt)

Is Brandon Thompson still on the team

Andre Smith looked awesome (I think he will be on the team longer than Whit)

I expected more out of CJ Uzomah (should have kept Gresham)

Leon Hall has been invisible (not that that's a bad thing)

Peko looked like Peko (with definitely be looking at NTs in the college games)

Watson goes 242.  That's crazy.  He has the wiggle of a much smaller dude.  I hope we can keep him too.

Where was Moore? Have we seen the last of him? Doesn't seem like he's gotten much of a chance.

And why was Tate returning all those punts? They don't already know him as a returner? I thought they were checking out other guys.

I have a queasy feeling Tate has made the team. Someone please tell me it isn't so.

I think I'm a Nico fan. Is Hawk a lock?

Vinny Rey is a starter going into the season, isn't he?

I'm guessing you didn't know he was a captain last night. He's in.

Probably go the main 3 plus Tate and Alford, stash Kumerow on the PS and bring him up if injuries occur.

PS--you were supposed to tell me it wasn't so.

MLJ and Geno were God
Peko and Bodine were God awful
AJ looked Competent
Carter deserves a spot
5 receivers make this team

The amount of penalties was unacceptable, I know it's pre-season but for the dress rehearsal game, far too many.

The O-line had a poor showing.

Gio Bernard looks terrible. I see no reason to let him on the field. He's not fooling anybody.

AJ looks great.

Offense looks fine if everyone stays healthy.

Defense is gonna be a question mark all season. I really don't see this defense being that great.

MJ will help a lot,  make them much stronger against the run.  Burfict will help too, of course.  Goebbels seems pretty sure he starts the year on PUP.

Somebody has to be able to take snaps from Peko.  He can NOT play more than rotational snaps.  Hope Sims can stay in the lineup.

Why wouldn't Tate make the team? And why do you have a problem with it? I would say he's a lock.

His biggest contribution is not dropping punts.  Seems like we've gotten to a place in our roster development where a guy might have to bring more than that to the table.

Unless we scoop someone off waivers. 

I don't understand why we have Gio back there fielding punts when you have Mario Alford.

Johnson has been out a month. Burfict has been out forever and will probably not be available til November 1st. Peko stinks. LB'er is a huge question mark. This team is gonna give up some points, I think.
