Allen2D̶i̶g̶g̶s̶TBD Posted August 14, 2021 Posted August 14, 2021 Singletary looks faster stronger, and more motivated. He's hitting the hole hard instead of stutter-stepping repeatedly behind the line. After tonight I am very confident that Andre Smith could step in for Edmunds or Milano and play well. For a guy I knew little about heading into this game, Josh Thomas stood out with some key stops. I am not confident in any of our backup offensive tackles. Hart, Brown and Doyle got beat badly by the pass-rush and forced our qbs to get the ball out before routes could develop. McCloud had a PI penalty (that shouldn't have been called) but looked solid in pass coverage. Rousseau's reach looks so long he could sack a qb from the bench. 3

He did nothing remarkable as far I saw when I changed channel. He seemed to be interacting with dregs which were not even as good as players he was working as bubble boy.

ghostwriter Posted August 14, 2021 Posted August 14, 2021 (edited) Honestly? The one thing that stood out to me the most was our DL. Just seemed like through all four quarters of the game that they consistently brought it. We have very good depth here all across the board. Tyler Matakevich and Andre Smith to me looked awesome, if not very good. Seems like we have good depth behind Edmunds, Milano and Klein, so I feel pretty good about this unit as well. Davis Webb I thought looked good. Surprisingly athletic and he seems like an okay backup. I would rather have him than Fromm. Singletary was very good, and I’d rather have Antonio Williams than Breida. Edited August 14, 2021 by Victory Formation 2
eee1776 Posted August 14, 2021 Posted August 14, 2021 As far as Fromm, once he got a little protection (Both tight ends were in) he seemed a lot better. I'm not ready to pull the plug on him yet. #47 was all over the field thought he played well. Elimating dumb penalties and this game would not have been that close. 2

Phillips is really who had the first sack accredit to Groot....

It's just that to me, Duke is a roster longshot. He doesn't contribute on special teams, so he really needs to dominate his reps on offense if he wants to make the team. I didn't feel like he necessarily did that tonight. Same with Hodgins. In fairness to Duke, though, I agree that the sideline "incompletion" looked like a catch, and he also roasted his defender in the 4th quarter but Fromm overthrew him. 1

I'm as big a Duke fan as anyone, but Kumerow is a better 6th, and Diggs, Davis, Beas, Sanders, and McKittrick are 1-5. 2

78thealltimegreat Posted August 14, 2021 Posted August 14, 2021 Rousseau…this man was toying with a legit future franchise tackle when he learns more technique my goodness Hamlin…this kid can play Stevenson…would be a lock for a receiver spot on about 20 teams in this league Bass….when he misses anymore I’m shocked 2

MJS Posted August 14, 2021 Posted August 14, 2021 (edited) I'm a little surprised by everyone talking up Stevenson. Other than the one catch, what did he do to impress everyone so much? I felt bad for Fromm getting the snot beat out of him whenever he dropped back. Pretty sure he was hit on every single completion. It took some guts knowing that his LT was picking dandelions instead of blocking and there was a 100% chance he would get creamed every pass play. I'd like to see more. He did not show well, but who would with Hart blocking for you? Hart practically propelled defenders towards the QB, like gave them a boost... Nice last drive for Fromm, though.

I wouldn't give Stevenson a game ball, but he came through on that last drive, as did Fromm. My only criticism was that after Stevenson made that big 4th down reception, he got up and started celebrating when he should have been getting back to the line for the next play. Pay attention to the clock! Overall, I'd like to see Stevenson get more chances. 5 1
machine gun kelly Posted August 14, 2021 Posted August 14, 2021 (edited) I wouldn’t say Fromm deserves any accolades, but Webb played well. I liked Obada, Rousseau, and Spencer Brown. He’s way too tall for Guard, but he very well may be our backup swing tackle. Edited August 15, 2021 by machine gun kelly 1

I am so sorry that Joe Burrow had to play with this guy. If Dawkins isn't ready for week 1 I might consider starting Trubisky until he's back. It's that bad. GH was ballin So glad I don't have to make the cuts lots of guys showed they can play in this league. You beat me to the mention good choice I had to laugh when Webb scrambled......... it surprised the Catatonic and Tasker. My question is how? We have all seen the video's of Webb racing Josh and Webb winning...yet no mention in the broadcast. Edited August 14, 2021 by JMF2006 1
