BuffOrange Posted September 4, 2006 Share Posted September 4, 2006 So I guess Stanley Pritchett went to the Randy Cross school of broadcasting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tasker Posted September 4, 2006 Share Posted September 4, 2006 Finally seeing the game, I was very happy with Willis, and still think he is going to have a monster year. On two of his losses, Gandy seemed to get beaten, and there wasn't much Willis could do. On the counter to the right he needed to cut back to the left and it would have been a TD, but without seeing that the play was too well covered by the Lions to get much. On his other runs he looked great, fast, patient when needed (on the TD), quick when needed. Very impressive running, and I hope we find a way go get the ball into his hands 25+ times a game. JP did very well, and demonstrated success on something that is his weakness (the short accurate passing game), although I wasn't very impressed with a couple of his actual throws (great catch on by Price on the first one that was tipped and could have been an INT). 5 for 5 in short passing was a great excersice for JP and refreshing to see, but not the gameplan I want to see throughout the season. I thought our D looked good (obviously not a lot of plays by the starters, and the Lions are pretty inept), but looking closer with Tivo at how they were moving and swarming and penetrating. I think we have enough confidence in our secondary and linebackers that if the line can do what they are supposed to do with their speed and penetration our D can be very very effective.

udonkey Posted September 4, 2006 Author Share Posted September 4, 2006 I only had a few minutes to watch the beginning of the game this morning, but the first thing that I did notice... The Lions broadcaster was doing the Bills offensive lineup during the first series of the game and said: "Willis McGahee was a thousand (1,000) yard rusher last year in his rookie season..."

Fan in San Diego Posted September 4, 2006 Share Posted September 4, 2006 I watched the game as well. The starters looked good ! That first pass by JP wasn't intercepted because he put alot of mustard on it and it shot right thru the defenders hands. Willis looked strong. The Def. was swarming like Killer B's !
