I'm not a batch fan, but not a dixon fan either

Agree - no need for Holmes to be out there now.

3rd and 3 form the 3.

Now we are really going to miss Hampton

by **thesteelhammer** » Fri Aug 08, 2008 8:19 pm

Our second team D can't stop Eagles 1st string Offense.

by **thesteelhammer** » Fri Aug 08, 2008 8:23 pm

Starks at LT
Essex at RG
LG is Stapelton?
Hartwig at Center

Davis at running back
Batch still at QB

Reid at WR

3 and out again

but new punter pins Eagles in with nice punt.

by **Father George** » Fri Aug 08, 2008 8:29 pm

Man, when I saw the picked up Ernster all I could think of was the first Browns game - fumbled snap, 4 penalties!

Kid looks like he's pretty good so far!

by **thesteelhammer** » Fri Aug 08, 2008 8:30 pm

Some guys down the depth chart in now.

Gay at CB
Fox at LB
Arnold Harrison at OLB
Andre Fraizer at LB

Lewis at Saftey

Do better job then 2nd teamers, making Eagles go 3 and out

He kinda got a bum rap for that play in Cleveland.
If my memory is correct (and it might not be since I've had a few beers), Ernster hadn't been in Clevelands camp for more than a day or two before that game.

Starks at LT
Essex at LG
Hartwig at Center

Davis blocking for Mendenhall in the back field with Batch

by **thesteelhammer** » Fri Aug 08, 2008 8:36 pm

INteresting that on 3rd and 1 they give the ball to Russell.

Batch is down

by **thesteelhammer** » Fri Aug 08, 2008 8:38 pm

Well we'll see what Dixon has got.

1st pass is a complettion to reid

by **thesteelhammer** » Fri Aug 08, 2008 8:40 pm

Russell is stuffed on 3rd and goal from the three.

FG is good and Ties it at 10 each

Batch headed to locker room.

Looks like we'll see Dixon for the 2nd half.

by **thesteelhammer** » Fri Aug 08, 2008 8:44 pm

Humpal in on D now.
Fox calling the D.

Eason & Mcbean on line

McFadden is still out there?

by **thesteelhammer** » Fri Aug 08, 2008 9:00 pm

Eason's sack ends the half Tied 10 to 10.

Starting Offense looked good in brief appreance.
Ben 2 for 2 for 38 yards and a TD

Willie 3 for 20 with a long of 11. (Let the "if you take away his long runs" arguments renew)

Holmes & Ward each had 1 grab for 19 yards with Homes get his in the endzone.

Line had good push.

Starting Defense got pushed around but firmed up when needed. Gave up 3.

2nd string D got pushed around by Eagles starters and gave up 7.
