Active Roster
1. This is Numero Uno. Replace Chris Crocker with Jason Allen in the starting line-up. Allen sure in the Hell has more athletic ability. Crocker is always out of position and when he was in a position to make a play today, he tripped over his own two feet. I can't understand what they see in him. I know you may say that Allen is not much better, but I would rather have a guy in there that has the ability to make plays rather than one that has no chance to make plays.
2. Henne starts next week. I know he is a rookie, but he has the temperment to be able to handle the pressure. He is going to have his ups and downs, but he really is our best option. Pennington is hanging the ball in the air so long that the recievers are at a disadvantage when they battle for the ball. Pennington is certainly a professional in his mindset and mangement of the game, but he lacks the physical qualities. Pennington is Jay FiedlerII. And don't give me the crap that we won with Jay. We won in spite of Big Ears. We had a defense back then, unlike today when our secondary is a sieve.
3. We have to stretch the field vertically. If we put Henne in and we allow Ginn to utilize his speed, it will open up the run game. The inability to open up the passing game is killing our ground attack. Teams will continue to play us tight because they know they can recover if a pass does go long.
4. Coaching has to improve. I'm sorry, but having 12 men on the field during a FG attempt is unacceptable. Some penalties you can put on the players, but most go back to coaching and not emphasizing the details. I know Sparano talks about this all the time, but apparentally he is not communicating his message well enough to the players.
