Positive notebook


Rackeen305

Recommended Posts

Defense- As I watch the Bengals preseason game #4 unlike previous years of vanilla plays, One positive note is that we are dialing sensible blitzes and forcing Bengals to check down to the number 2,3, or 4th receiver options, or forcing them to kill the play. Earl Okine is playing lights-out.

 

Offense- QB Morris is outplaying QB Tolzin. Morris's Pocket presence (stepping up in the pocket) resembles a veteran QB. Also, Morris is putting heat on the ball. WR Chester Rodgers made great catches and run after catch plays.

 

Another important thing of note is that we are finally tackling. Years prior, we would give up YAC (Yards after contact) by the opponents RB.

Gotta love Stephan Morris

Rogers, Tevaun Smith and MeKale McKay nice group of rookie WRs

 

MLB Morrison looks great

 

3rd sting O-line seems ok.

OT's:  67 Vujnovich and 79 Van Dyk did solid job all preseason.

C/G 63 Austin Blythe, G 65 Kitt O'Brien and G 61 Adam Redmond

 

38 Lee Hightower over Winston Guy at backup S

46 Frankie Williams best of the healthy CBs

 

Todman over Ridley

Except cornerback Christopher Milton, #40. Needs a lot of work on his techniques (with another team). Maybe he didn't get the memo.

You guys notice on the play Maggitt got the FF. Thompson, Bates and Maggitt on the field at the sametime. Bates was playing mlb with Edwin.

Yes I saw that.  They had been saying they were going to have him play ILB as well.

    • So true. I was watching his presser yesterday as I wanted to get a feel for him after some of the negativity surrounding his personality on the draft day, and I LOVED how happy and excited he was. I had a little fear that some of the fan base would buy into the negativity prematurely and make it a rough start for him, but I don’t think so anymore.    I think he and Latu are both going to be playmakers for us, if not this year then very soon. Have a feeling they bring exactly want this team needed to finally take off. They bring a lot of faith to me, together with Richardson and Steichen. Can’t explain it, but the pieces to the puzzle is suddenly to see on the table.
    • Cubs beat the Pirates tonight but the Brewers won as well, what else is new lol. Cubs are now 23-16, Brewers are 23-15.
    • Couldn’t agree more! The chip on his shoulder is a very good look. That said, I have always valued the “clutch” gene in players.    It’s truly something that can’t be coached and can’t be taught. AD has IT! Period. Exclamation point! He has it. Name a better receiver in the college football playoffs/ championships ever…   You can’t teach that. He has it. He can be that guy. He is the 33-32 Colts over the Pats, 4th and 1, AFC Championship, game changer. He can be that guy… Will he? I have no dang idea. But does he have the ability to be? Yes! Resounding, yes! 
    • I absolutely LOVE that Mitchell picked 10 as a constant reminder that 10 WR’s were picked before him.  That is a GIGANTIC chip on his shoulder.   So far I like everything I’m reading about the kid.  There may be speed bump or hiccup some day….  But so far so good.
