It's an unfortunate side effect of the sport with how bad injuries are.

That is the one position group where there will be some difficult cuts.

Tough because you have to load up on linebackers.
In the past, we've kept about 9 DL  
Cenotaph : 8/17/2018 9:34 pm : link
and 6 LB for a 4-3, so figure maybe flip that to 6- DL and 8-9 LB....they can probably keep about 4 DE, though if you get 1-2 guys who can shift between DE/LB than you can skew the #s. But yeah, there might be some tough decisions at DE - don't forget Mauro is out for the 1st 4 weeks though, and I don't think he'll count against the roster (though I'm not sure of the timing of when that take effect, etc).
Great

cut by Gallman.
As crappy as they were last

Wayne Gallman solidifying the #2 RB spot  
nyjuggernaut2 : 8/17/2018 9:35 pm : link
with his performance tonight.
Gallman isn't a great #1 but he's a GREAT #2 RB  
BestFeature : 8/17/2018 9:35 pm : link
I'm honestly surprised that out of all of the RBs Reese has drafted since Bradshaw he's the one that sticks. I remember BBI being a lot higher on Perkins and Andre Williams.

Williams came in with a great college resume at least. Gallman was a solid back who played in a winning program, but I didnt think he was particularly special in the draft. But he sure looks like he spent the winter getting better. With his ability to catch, he has to be the #2 RB. Honestly the odd man out here is Stewart, but he probably stays purely due to the contract.
Really like Laulettas play action...very smooth

Bettcher is punching them and bodyslamming them and all sorts of physical shit. Wynn came in and totally bodyslammed him. Bettcher started cracking up.

Love that.
First preseason game in forever

Where the #2 and #3 QBs both look competent.

I also dont want to see Barkley or OBJ before Jax.

Best news about tonight is no injuries.
Simmons concussion.

Why do they keep putting Tanney in?

He's not making the team what the fuck is the point? Is Shurmur just being "fair" to him?

yes, giving him a chance to get some game film, so maybe he can catch on somewhere else after cut here...

the guy practices like everyone else, he deserves play time to show the league what he can do
I do like  
Cenotaph : 8/17/2018 9:48 pm : link
the way our D seems to swarm to the ball. Too often last year, it seemed like there was one guy, and if he didn't make the tackle, no one else was on screen. Just seems like more guys swarming the ball this year.

Also, for our questionable 2ndary depth, haven't seen too many blown coverages so far in preseason. And the ones we have seen seem like more LB than CB
Great touch

Webb was much more on target with his passes tonight and showed excellent command of the offense, especially on that long drive.

Also how did the NBC announcers not realize it was a forward pass and not a fumble by Webb? It was obvious.


OMG, broke 30 points!!!
