Mario Edwards really doesn't need to make this team

Vickerson looked a lot better; I keep him on the roster.

There very well may be another wr come in as that 6th receiver. Thompson isn't that guy, and I just don't think Farmer is either.

Gordon, Minor and Morris have some value, but I do not want to get rid of Morris. He looks pretty good. I would keep Minor over Gordon. It doesn't look like Harris is going to get a chance.

I believe Romero is not going to make the squad at dt

The Dolphins had real problems with cut back runs (both from Watson and Graham).

I just am not sure if Lee makes it or not at te. I just don't know.

I expect roster additions period. But most of them may be on defense.

After watching Roth every game he has plenty of chances for sacks but if the qb is mobile he gets deaked out.
 
david bowens gave us backside containment on a couple of those big reverse field runs

Hey Roth had a pick and a couple sacks this preseason, he's not ready yet, but he'll get better.

yeah the LBs overpursued on those plays. also, you have to figure that the Bucs held somewhere on the field during those plays. it's virtually impossible to go back across the field like that and not have a running play when the did it 3 times. and they didn't have but maybe 2 holding penalties all game on offense. kind of fishy.
 
if you have a chance to go back and watch ( which i dont) alot of the blame can be placed on the loss of contain and over pursuit of the defensive ends
 
My big observation was all of the bad throws that Gus made. He overthrew almost all of his deep passes and was given ample time and space to even step up in the pocket. Plain and simple those passes have to get completed, we could have scored 21 points in the first half easy with some better throws.

I think AJ needs one more chance to play with the 1st team, but at this point in the preseason, it would be a waste to let him start with the 1st team. Gus needs all the experience he can get with these players, but I dont think he has looked good for the past couple games.
 
heck yea gus had 3 sure touchdowns he overthrew, chambers ayt the pylon, boston and gilmore down the middle
 
I thought Chambers should have caught the pass by the pilon. He also dropped another pass he normally makes. Gus reminds me of Vinny T. He throws the posts and outs very well but doesn't put air under the ball on the deep routes. His long ball is very weak.

I sadly have to agree. My best guess is that we have seen so little of him because Saban wants to increase the chance he'll land on the practice squad.

Thats the biggest problem I have with Gus, he is better at game management but then he throws a long pass and he couldnt hit the broad side of a barn.

As they develop timing that will b corrected. i was impressed by how our recievers were getting open especially David Boston. On the pass he was overthrown to he had his man beat by atleast 7-8 yards.
