Wouldn't be too hard on Francois. He's a UDFA rookie out there thrown into the fire with the starters against the #1 O. He's not going to look good doing that. He didn't look absolutely awful, and I personally chocked up more negative plays to Bishop than to Francois.

Flynn looked really good out there with the 2's against the 1's. For that matter, Brandon Jackson ran really well with that 2nd unit too.

I don't know if anyone else saw that article a few weeks back, but Brandon Jackson apparently made some changes in his diet and work ethic. I've never been a huge fan of his, but this could be a breakout year for him. He's a tough, squatty runner. We might be better off behind Ryan Grant than we think. Jackson just looks like a different guy this year.

Looks like the 2nd team OL got the message that MM wasn't happy last week. Of course, 4 of them are actually legitimate starters. Best situation on the OL we've seen in a while.

i haven't been a fan of his either, but he looks pretty solid tonight

another screw up on special teams

It looks like whoever we get at punter will be fine. Crosby has been real solid too.

Outside of that, the coverage units are just scary. Returns - so/so.

Frank Zombo can do anything. The impossible is unknown to Frank Zombo.

[RashanGary]

Nice Zombo. He's making a case.

zombo has to make the team, he's the only OLB in preseason doing anything

either punter looks like a nice improvement over last year

its not just me right? shields looks like the only competent CB in the game right now. he picked up bush's jock on that one play

[RashanGary]

Well, if we were about the worst last year at ST's. This year, it looks like just having a solid punter and Crosby bouncing back a little, we might move into the 20-25 range.

I guess that's a relative positive, you know, not being the worst.


I'm getting a little tired of the bad coverage units though. Why can't we cover kicks?
