Was watching Hicks as closely as I could on the online feed I had. Saw he got some good pressure a couple of times. On Marquis Johnson's interception I believe it was Hicks taking down the Pats QB (might have been #75 Walker, numbers a little blurry on the screen). Also disrupted the backfield on a couple running plays and swatted one at the line. I was very impressed for his first game.

Tanner is a favorite of mine as well, I hope they find room for him and possibly Morgan on the team as well. Although I don't know if Morgan can beat out Roby, who has had a pretty terrific couple of games at WR and is a known special teams contributor.

Banyard impressed me with the couple of carries I noticed, nothing flashy but I thought he had pretty good positive yards behind our last string o-line. Cadet was featured pretty heavily at HB, and was pretty feast or famine. Love him when he gets the ball in space though, he can make guys miss.

Chase Daniel was not as impressive as last week, but didn't look bad either. A good run for a first down called back, and then follows it up with a beautiful first down to Roby. Pick wasn't his fault either. Still, I thought he could have shown better. Maybe I'm just being hard because I thought he did so well last week. Canfield and McCown both get a thumbs down from me.

Only other thing of note I can think of right now is that Martez Wilson better get his head on straight on special teams. We can't be having penalties that extend drives on fourth down in the regular season. Inexcusable.

Clarke first welcome aboard, and thanks for your input. Almost as good as a play by play announcer!
