1. The first two false starts called on Anderson were actually Hadnot's fault.

2. Anderson, however, was at fault on both of DC's sacks. The first was by RB's guy but it was the result of Anderson's guy blowing by him and forcing DC to step up into harm's way.

3. DC looked good. He sometimes shows a slight limp when he walks, but he shows no effects when he plays.

4. The DL was getting pushed back early on. Wilkinson helped a ton (maybe only half a ton :wink: ) when he came in.

5. Morris has great vision. I'm not worried about the backup rb position.

6. Harrington looked great during the 2 minute drill, but that situation doesn't force him to go through his progressions. He was much more pedestrian after that. He made a couple of poor reads and missed on a couple of passes, but showed nice touch throughout.

7. The J. Allen screw up doesn't concern me much b/c it was clearly a mental error from the cb position where he's practiced maybe 3 days. That's easily correctable.
 
People are being to hard on Allen, he's just a rookie and he was playing corner, instead of safety. Alllen will learn and progress and get better, not all 1st rounders are instant satrs.
 
I missed the game PLEASE update me!!!

I couldnt see the game beacuse of a funeral but however i was wondering about some key points i hear dc looked good but was he limping when he walks...that concerns me also how did the secondary look? 10 points sounds good though...also what about vick? One last things i definatly dont like seeing 10 penalties thats what killed us last year i think............thanks guys


:dolphins: :dolphins: :dolphins:
 
DC looked good, i dident notice a limp though. Marcus Vick had two returns for 12 yards. The penalties were partly because of the silent count they decieded to use. The first team secondary looked good, and our 2nd and 3rd string improved alot from last week. Hope that helped.:D
 
J. Allen, didnt play nearly as bad as what it sounded like on hear last night. It sounded like he was THE BIGGEST "bust" of all 1st round "busts". Was hoping for improvement over the first game and I think you could see improvement with him. Does their need to be more? Yes, that will come with time.
Even after the long score, TB seemed to be throwing at Mitchell a lot more still, or at least on Mitchells side of the field.
 
not impressive though big daddy kicked butt! and fred gibson looked good and as for our secondary look for the nfl wire on cut day we need help in DB"s

The scondary looks that way, because we have several players out hurt that did not play. This will get better once players get healthy.

Im with you on everything but the Harrington "so-so" somment. Come on, Harrington looks good 2 minute drill or not. Everyone is so careful on not giving the guy credit, heck half of the peeps on this site didn't want him. He's looking confident and throws one of the prettiest balls I've ever seen(enter homosexual jokes here at your own discretion) .

I am not all that worried about J. Allen's mental mistakes at this point what I am worried about is how often he gets ran over. The guy gets into great position just to turn into a speed bump. When I see a safety come up to make a tackle I want to see someone bring the wood and hand out a few tats. Ala Ed Reed, or Roy Williams. J. Allen looks like he will be a good cover safety but he needs to learn how to punish the runner not let the runner punish him.

J. Allen led Tennesee at tackling, and is a great tackler. Now he does need to improve a bit on the pro level, but that will come with time.
 
Yeah I wish Marcus Vick would have been involved more in the offense. Fred Gibson is looking good though.

He normally makes the tackle, but for his sake and the teams I would like to see him change the way he does it.

Now it seems he makes the tackle by the runner tripping over his face mask as he runs over Allen. I would like to see Allen stuff the runner back a few yards.

Edit: maybe I'm being to picky, lol

Naw man i agree, If what you said is true, than he probably needs to change the way he tackles for his own sake. Id love to see him bring the wood like sean taylor or ed reed, but i think he's still learning and getting comfortable in the defense.
