Seeing the usuals on Twitter absolutely shit on him, but PRAISE Volson who was just as, "shitty," (save for the penalty) was quite disheartening: communication sucked for both units tonight and that was the main cause of any issues.
Put Carman next to Karras and Jonah, instead of Prince/Adeniji and Hill, then we'll see. Same for Volson; put him with quality guys and then we can have a discussion.
That being said, the Carman hold was ill-timed and he did get pushed back on 2 plays from what I saw, from being too high. Otherwise, he was fine and showed his usual good strength on a few plays.
Volson handled the bullrush very well and didn't give up any ground. Drive blocking on runs, he broke through and did well. Moving laterally, he was awful and his men were able to sneak through when running on angles and twice they ran around him to almost sack the QB.
They need to play with the starters before anything.
Also, people bagging on Moss? Even 'zerker/Royle said that those were 2 hard-luck penalties and could've gone either way (ESPECIALLY the second one). And he doesn't like the guy AT ALL lol.
He looked good in the pass game and got open a bunch, though I wasn't able to watch his blocking, so not sure how he did there.
No doubt. He was blocking the guy so well they threw a flag. Total BS call. It is preseason for the refs, too, and someone will be admonished for that in their meetings.
I don't get the hate for this guy. I'm sure his dad has enough money to give him a solid life, but he continues to work and obviously loves the game. He has had some tough-luck injuries but, as you said, usually GETS OPEN AND CATCHES THE BALL. This, on a team that saw Wilcox injured, and Sample is also injured. I think he might also have some good chemistry with Joe.
Here's to him proving the haters wrong and making big strides this year. Pulling for the kid.
