Unless you're counting the 9-7 score in the first quarter, we never trailed in this game.

Hmm apparently Harvin left the game with an ankle injury, I don't recall it ever being mentioned. Maybe everyone is so used to it already it goes without saying. :v):

It shows the lack of patience on this board. Floyd was another one nobody gave a chance. There are some that aren't giving Teddy a chance, comparing him to Ponder, saying we need to draft a QB :roll:

I just posted in that thread. I was thinking of him all the way through OT. He must have been a nervous wreck.

Really happy for him. He seems like a really good dude, the kind you want to pull for.

You mean was, when he was in Clemson, and you wanted him here?

There are so many WRs I wanted above CP the year before. This draft though, we either need a first pick WR, or get a great FA one, even if he is on the wrong side of 25.

And we have the speed guys now with Johnson and wright. We need another good hands, route runner, like Jennings, as a wide out. Then we compete for our division.

It seems after every game there are a couple of guys a who want someone cut and proclaim said player to be garbage. During the game I understand. We all get pretty emotional.

Yeah when he was at Clemson, liked him in the mid-rounds, thought he would be a good fit for Norv's offense. I gotta bring up when I'm right cause it doesn't happen so often! :lol:

Seriously though, what they do with CP is going to be very interesting. I think Johnson will get a nice contract in the coming weeks (unsure what his current terms are). I agree on WR being a top priority, I'm not ready to give up on Patterson but Jennings is long in the tooth so it makes sense either way.

And some O-line help. TB been sacked 25 times this year. I don't like that.
