The interior ol wasn’t great nuef struggled the most though. half a very good game for buck. A quarter and a half of pretty bad play call. The rest was solid. I thought Grey had a bit of a tough time ,especially in the first half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has great athleticism and fits in with the Dark Side Gotta say Houston seems like a good guy. Saw him walkin' around at the Fan Day event when we picked our replica rings. Hadnt even officially made the team yet at that point and was already putting in his dues Mike, Tracker and wbbfan 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBlueFanatic Posted June 25, 2022 Report Share Posted June 25, 2022 Houston had a really good game. Thought he was in good position most of the time that allowed him to play real fast to the ball, especially compared to his spot duty last year. Especially happy for him and his family, knowing they were in the stands for his first start of the season, which turned out to be a good one! ddanger, Rod Black, Wideleft and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rod Black Posted June 25, 2022 Report Share Posted June 25, 2022 The D is the best defensive Squad in the league at this point. It’s early, yet as they (Paul Bryant) say “defence wins championships”. wbbfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole interior ol wasn’t good. Dobson struggled when put in at te in offensive packages. He can’t pass pro at tackle like that.

Goalie Posted June 25, 2022 Report Share Posted June 25, 2022 I'll go 1 demski - great game. If not for his ankle he's over 100 2 Wilson - just a tackling machine 3 leggs - best game by him so far HH goes to Houston cuz of the panic on the boards the past week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yourface Posted June 25, 2022 Report Share Posted June 25, 2022 Not surprised whatsoever that Houston was able to step in for Rose and not miss a beat. Rose has been arguably our worst DB since last year. bigg jay and Noeller 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noeller Posted June 25, 2022 Report Share Posted June 25, 2022 Rose was fantastic last year. Never missed a beat when he came back. He's clearly hurt this year and hasn't been up to his usual standard. wbbfan and bb1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He stepped right into game action with basically just a few practices and not playing and actuual game in over a yr...and by 2nd game was pretty much lock down again Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddanger Posted June 25, 2022 Report Share Posted June 25, 2022 I'm late but here we go. 1. Leggs....thrilled with his play last night. A couple of booming punts, and all good on the field goals. 2. Whole defence. 1 touchdown given up in 3 games. Willy, Jackson, Biggie, Kyrie just awesome. 3. Zack. Calm and cool under pressure. Woulda liked to see him get rid of the ball a little faster. HH. Houston had a great game. Also glad for the return of Hansen, and awesome to see him taking some reps on the d line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Posted June 25, 2022 Report Share Posted June 25, 2022 I am confused... I thought it wasn't Rose (playing hurt) and it was all Thompsons fault for the first 2 games with the big plays? That we had a crisis at Safety because it was all the new guys fault? Now some people are doing a 180 and saying Rose even sucked last year? This site sure can jump on and off bandwagons on a weekly basis. Fun fact... Rose currently is tied at 7th in the league for defensive tackles. A DB should not be near the top of the league in tackles. Clearly the man is hurt and hopefully he doesn't return until he's fully healthy and can go at 100%. Because when he is healthy he's damn good despite what now a few naysayers are saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booch Posted June 26, 2022 Report Share Posted June 26, 2022 Rose obviously tried to play through it...and Thompson was an issue the first game but had been well coached up since and is playing the position way better....it's visually easy to see from being at the opener and last night...as well as what u could pick up on tv in second game. Also...u can see some extra communicating and on field coaching by guys like Taylor and Wilson/Biggie to guys like Rutz and Glass...which has helped 3 fold...and gonna get evenn better once the General BA gets back on the field and an healthy Rose Mark H. and Noeller 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BomberfanMKS Posted June 26, 2022 Report Share Posted June 26, 2022 I thought the extra rotation with Hansen really showed in the last half of the game with their line looking much more fatigued than ours wbbfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you're mixing and matching posters to make it seem like everyone is a little dyslexic... Most agreed Rose appears to be playing through an injury (evidenced by him being in a walking boot after suffering an injury in practice)... Only one or two people were adamant Thompson was a major problem... Only one person is saying Rose was bad last year... and that person is known to try and stir pot I agree, let's hope Rose sits until he's 100%... better he sits out a few games in June/July than play on a nagging injury in Oct/Nov.
