If I was a coach and saw a player yawning during a game, especially when trying to win a job, Ivthink I’d cut him then and there.

I didn’t see Lewis play last night? Could be he starts next to Rapp.

Right now I think the starting safeties are Rapp and Lewis. Lewis gets a bad rap because of that one play against the Vikings, but to me he offers a lot more than Hamlin. Bishop needs to get his butt in gear as the third guy, and Hancock is 4th. And Hamlin gets cut.

Seems to me Shavers has more than earned the spot behind Shakir, Coleman, and Palmer. Moore will have to fight it out with guys like Hamler. I think they may wind up giving Samuel an injury settlement

Not panicking at all. Just an observation that teams might be seeing an opening for the shorter, quicker routes against our D.

I am not the sort to panic over a couple preseason games but I have noticed that, in both games so far, the quick pass has been pretty successful. It nullified the rush for the most part, and sitting in zone allowed WRs to get open in a regular basis. So I’m wondering if this might force a switch from a zone dominant scheme more to a man concept. Many here are much better scholars of strategy than me so please weigh in.

Don’t know that I’d give thumbs up to anyone other than Shavers. Agree with all your thumbs down but would add Hamlin, our rookie DT Walker - he has to learn to play with his pads lower, and Codrington. I think they want a returner that can also back up a position on the field and Codrington showed he’s not capable of playing corner. All in all a lot of guys put their potential of playing in the NFL in jeopardy.

Hamlet is a good example of what coaches will look for in cuts. Veteran WR has to get both feet down on that one pass. I suspect McD will go nuts over lack of attention to detail.

Only guy on offense that could start is maybe Shavers.

I think they give a damn. They just aren’t playing well

They are not doing anything complex tonight.

Yep, they may be playing themselves off the team

True. Some guys are throwing away a shot at an NFL career to be sure

Don’t know, don’t care. This game is about deciding on backups.

Looks like they want Coddrington to be able to contribute at CB to make the team. He’s not passing the test. Walker needs to get his pads lower.

McD is not happy I’m sure. But he and the OC/DC will have a lot of tape to know who is not worth keeping on the roster and the specific coaching the rooks need.

Get all the crap out of their system now

Starters played a couple series. Let’s all panic.

Bingo

I think Shavers makes it because he’ll have an important role as gunner on special teams. They can have Davis or one of the young DBs return kicks. I’m also thinking Samuels gets an injury settlement.

Shavers replaces Mack Hollins on this year’s team

I helped with those goal posts!

If you are an older fan like me, you have always and will always hate the Fish

I think Shavers is this year’s Mack Hollins

Pretty cool. Not sure I’d put little kids in a drifting car like that. Loved the stuff about Tre.
