Rookie mistake, but PJ Williams will get better; Aaron Glenn will make sure of it...

Great thing is, it was preseason, it didn't costs us a "W".

Season hasn't begun, so don't consider a bad preseason performance a "slam dunk" that we're going to be in the "lottery" of a top ten pick...

But there's some work to be done along the offensive line...

I hope your right, I just remember myself thinking someone like Corey White or Patrick Robinson would eventually learn to locate the ball and it never happened.

Agreed. PJ is essentially a rookie (injury redshirt in 2015) but will improve as the season progresses. Give him game experience. Until we get a solid "push" up the middle, expect corners and LB's to be exposed however ELLERBE is a stud.

Was it just me or does James Laurinitus (sp) appear SLOW?

Re watched Peat and he looked a lot better last night. Just leave him at RG and let's go. I also thought LANDON TURNER played well. I see potential. Good in the run game & was consistent in the passing. He can't be any worse than Lelito.

the oline was atrocious top to bottom. nothing was good or optimistic. They're flat out horrible. SP Has no one to thank but himself

They should call it pre-season evaluation because by the first regular season game a lot of the evaluees hopefully will be gone.

If you are talking about the starters, sorry but that is wrong. I haven't watched the first to games but I did look over the first half against the Steelers twice (parts of it three times).


The right side with Strief and Peat looked decent for the most part. Strief had one play where he didn't set up well but overall he doesn't do a lot of mistakes, got to the outside well on the stretch/toss play.
Strief and Peat had a little trouble with picking up the stunts but that is mostly a communication thing that will sort itself out with more reps together.

Peat looked a lot better than he did last year. You can see flashes of athleticism like when he gets downfield on the screen to Cadet. He just needs to get his technique right on every play and sit down because when he do he does a pretty good job.

Unger is solid.

Left guard is the weakest spot. It doesn't matter if it says 65 or 68 on the back, they are both garbage. They plant their feet and just don't move in passpro. They are a little better in run but not a whole lot.

Armstead only got a couple of plays. Can't say much about him. Its a huge drop-off when Hill comes in but that is to be expected. We need TA to get healthy.

And the rest of the O,
Spiller looks healthy for real this year, moves well and seem to have all the speed left. Cadet looked decent too he just needs to hold on to the ball. The running was solid yet unspectacular. We had a 4.3yd/carry average which is all right, pretty close to breaking longer ones, they will come.

I love the young receivers we have. They gonna be one of the best groups in the league.

W.T. Sherman is my favorite General. After all he did order Atlanta to be burned to the ground.

Well hopefully it's a 16+ games season for us and Ellerbe has a long way to go...

Stupar looks every bit as good in coverage...

James Laurinaitis looks to be a stop-gap until we draft a better talent, though Craig Robertson has more physical talent, think the Coaching Staff wants a take-charge field marshal for the defense which Laurinaitis does well...

Would have like Nick Vigil in the third round...
