He doesn't look good enough to make the roster.

Yeah he needs to be cut. That first TD he gave up was just embarrassing.

Awful lot of commercials for a preseason game. Good grief.

How about showing a replay during the game sometime. No, they'd rather show Jared Allen answering a stupid question by a fan or a commercial every 30 seconds.

What happened to Cris Carter's kid, did he not make it past tryouts?

Kinda figured we might lose this game. Not that it matters. I still saw a lot of positives from some key players.

Who cares about losing this game? We played them to a tie for ages. I guess their 3rd and 4ths are better than ours? LOL.

What a terrible performance in the third and fourth quarters. Hopefully the coaching staff can get through tot he backups because we are in a world of hurt if we have more than a couple of injuries to the starters.

He's on the practice squad of the Montreal Alouettes.

Im the pessimist, and I thought we saw a lot more good then bad. Couldn't care less about the score. Cassel is going to push ponder. that's good. mauti looks good, Patterson looks great, Walsh is, well, Walsh. I enjoyed it. LBs are going to be the question late in game. But what else is new.

Man. The back up offensive line REALLY struggled tonight. I am not feeling very comfortable right now if something were to happen to one our starters.

Overall, it was an interesting game. It was frustating to watch our defense fall victim to those zone runs. Oh well, it is just preseason.

Studs from tonight: Stephan Burton, Cordarrelle Patterson, Zach Line, Matt Cassel, Sharrif Floyd, John Carlson, Joe Webb

Duds from tonight: Jerome Simpson, ENTIRE back up offensive line, Bobby Felder, Andrew Sendejo, DeAundre Reed, Tyrone McKenzie.
