PromoTheRobot Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 If Marcus Murphy didn't earn a roster spot with his performance yesterday I don't know what would. And Jason Croom played well too. Certainly had a better game than Charles Clay. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldmanfan Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 I think it's possible they keep Croom, Lee and O'Leary and cut Clay. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwksilver Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Agree with both of those calls. I'd say Edmunds looks improved from last game as well. Hopefully that is a trend going forward. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mannc Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Ivory ran hard. So there’s that... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Riverside Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Our running backs looked good....in a real game we would have ran them a lot more to slow down the Bengals pass rush 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the one area that really caught my attention was the massive improvement against the run. Of course, this was offset by the equally massive drop off in pass defense. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know for sure, but it feels like there’s a zero percent chance that they cut Clay. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mango Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 I thought Milano had a nice game for us yesterday. If there is any bright spots on the defensive side of the ball, I thought he was it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBrownBear Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Murphy, Ivory, Edmunds, Croom and Peterman all showed well. Our O-Line, Vontae Davis and Colton Schmidt all stuck out like sore thumbs for their miserable performances. Mediocrity from most everyone else. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schmidt punted poorly, the oline did their Charger game impersonation, zero pass rush led to wide open crossing routes. I do love Murphy and Croom and can't see them 3rd string very long. Temper your expectations all, it's a rebuilding year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLTbills Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 The run game definitely was a bright spot, and that’s without Shady. It’s crazy to me how an O-Line can run block so well and pass block SO terrible. It doesn’t make sense to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
