They're starting Blaine Gabbert for goodness sake.

• Thought Shawn Williams' coverage was soft and he bit badly on Yelton's cut outside. 
• I'd like to have seen Ryan Brown in earlier in the game.  I like the way he and David Dean played, but DE is the greater need
• Derron Smith is a really good player
• Uzomah is definitely improving
• Core and Erickson are really good players, though I think Core gets called for OPI in the regular season - at least if we're playing the Steelers.  Not sure how we work out the logistics to get Erickson on the team but he needs to be on the 46.  He's only going to get better.
• I like Zampeze's play calling.  Nifty plays without too many bells and whistles.  I think he and Andy are going to develop a great chemistry over the year.  Zampeze's not the player guru that Hue is, but he seems to have plenty of substance
• Bodine looks better.   Hopefully the young tackles return and make some steady progress.
• Back up O-line was scary bad.  But there were some injuries.  Feel bad for Licata
• Maualuga looked great.  If he stays healthy he'll could be special by the time he gets himself into top shape... half way through the season
• They're giving Hunt every opportunity to earn a spot.  I'm still waiting for him to grow into his NFL pants.

He is a BIG man, and damn, did you see him fly down the field and get his hands on that pass? Didn't expect that out of the big guy. I think he is on the rise.

(08-30-2016, 01:40 PM)3wt Wrote: Yeah, big opportunity for both of them to develop, and I'm pretty nervous about the Jets' front 7.

If the interior of the line (Bodine) holds up, though, I think we'll do OK.

But the Jets will be the "tell" for his progress. 

(08-29-2016, 12:51 AM)Truck_1_0_1_ Wrote: Indeed. Looked like either something was held up or Andy rushed the throw (yes, due to pressure), because that was indeed a beauty play if executed.


He's looked better than Kroft did at any point last year, not to mention his blocking is actually miles ahead of what was advertised.

Please elaborate; how was he so bad tonight?

Also, the 49ers rolling with Gabbert doesn't surprise me. It's a team run by Jed York, Trent Baalke, and Chip Kelly. None of them are known for smart decision making.

Is it just me or does he also look like he spent the offseason at a crack house?  He looks to have lost about 25 lbs of muscle.  He was build like Terrell Owens before and now looks like a strung-out crackhead.  Quit roids?  Curious.

Do ex-QB's have as much of a platform?  Cuz, as soon as this season ends, that's what he'll be.

I wonder why we moved Dre to RCB when Pacman didn't play, we don't rotate our DBs.

Nuge looked better that the competition

Eric Winston held his own at RT

I like Will Clarke getting salty with the ex-Steeler

Zampese seems more concerned with execution where as Hue liked gadgets. not saying one is better that the other

McCarron could compete for the starting gig on a handful of teams
