Second Half Thread

PrintKnucklehead sandwich: it has been a half full of assclown mistakes. And you can't blame the kids completely. Julius Jones fumbles. LaRoi Glover takes two dumb penalties. John Condo rolls the extra point back to the holder. Bradie James looks like Curly Howard. Anthony Henry is missing tackles. With that, a stop at the end of the half gives you something to take to the locker room.
When Dallas went into it's nickel late in the half, it had Roy Williams up in the slot with Willie Pile playing deep centerfield. Davis was on the sideline. I'll have to review the tape, but Williams may have been playing LB with Pile and Jacques Reeves manning the deep halves. Now that's an adjustment.

thats a damn good idea keep williams as a lb and put pile and reeves as the safety

Opening drive of the second half will tell alot about this game. Hold them, and we can get right back into it. Give up another drive just like that last one and stick a fork in us. I for one am thrilled to be this close after that 30 minute performance.

Sucks to be in Packers country because I almost never get to see the Boys on tv.

Bluecheese,
I think the Packer fans right now would rather watch another team, because the packers are going to have a loooooonnnnnngggg season.

I’m from Hudson, just curious. Nice field position.
by Joe on Sep 25, 2005 4:55 PM CDT reply actions
That is my only consolation as of this moment. Packers fans are awfully quiet these days.
by bluecheese on Sep 25, 2005 4:56 PM CDT reply actions
now we just need score on this drive and get some momentum back, we have great field position. see how much heart this team has in this game, its still very winnable
by mike on Sep 25, 2005 4:56 PM CDT reply actions
feel bad for farve though i do like him now that they are not a threat to us like in middle 90’s

Pack and Vike fans around here have been awful quiet.

ok, just give it to Julius and pitch it to Witten (see I spelled it correctly), and lets get back into this thing.

joe, atleast the vikes have some talent, the packers look terrible

jj is averaging like 4.5 a carry not like they are stopping him, he needs to break 1 big time. he seems to get alot of 9-12 yd runs

Right back in it now…….Look like they’ve settled down now…just watch those deep passes,they’ll keep em coming till we prove we can stop it…

Would have loved to have been a fly on the wall in that lockeroom.

Ya know, a stop here and another score and we could have the lead. As bad as we have played, we could still win this.

has anyone seen any blitzes??? i cant remember seeing even 1

if you were a fly youd prolly need to go to church after BP was done with them

I think we’ll win this now.I think that the adjustments we made at halftime will turn things around for us.

bring some damn pressure, seems like we are scared to blitz for fear of the deep ball

You have a great punter. Pin them deep. Play field position. Even if we hold them to a fg, its back to a two score ballgame.

Payton, Parcells, that is on you.
A billion Chinese knew that Bledsoe was going to have to pass on that 3rd down.
by bluecheese on Sep 25, 2005 6:05 PM CDT reply actions
Good call – Witten should be the guy helping sustain these drives that keep flaming out. San Francisco has some good linebackers, but Witten should be a big part of the gameplan at this stage of the game. Have the WRs clear the safeties out of the middle, and Witten should be able to get separation on the LB’s in the 8-12 yard range.

What’s with us not being able to stop the run today?

on 4th down, do we kick it, or go for it and use our timeouts to get the ball back and kick a fg to win it?
by bluecheese on Sep 25, 2005 6:13 PM CDT reply actions
Keyshawn has been clutch in every game. It’s too bad he doesn’t play all 22 positions on the field. He has no quit in him this season.
by Matt on Sep 25, 2005 6:15 PM CDT reply actions
And there he is again—2 point conversion. He’s as close to Michael Irvin as we’ll see around here for a long time.

You think they are going to go for the deep ball on Glen
by Trev on Sep 25, 2005 6:17 PM CDT reply actions
Oh, and I don’t want to forget to give Bledsoe some credit. He’s played (mostly) very well for us this year. Lets hope he can keep it going. Now we need 1:51 of good defense.
by Matt on Sep 25, 2005 6:17 PM CDT reply actions
THey have to pass it now, so bring some pressure.
by bluecheese on Sep 25, 2005 6:18 PM CDT reply actions
Regardless, blitz the crap out of Rattay when they get the ball back.
by Joe on Sep 25, 2005 6:19 PM CDT reply actions
Oh my God that’s a colossal break for us. I think they made the wrong call. Fortunately the call on the field was in our favor. If it had gone the other way before the review, the call would have stood.

All this nonsense that Bledsoe is too slow, too old, holds the ball too long, but if this guy in this game passed Johnny Unitas and had a 24-38, 2td, ruseh fo another and 363 yards passing, and one pick of the two was his fault, but he brought this team back, and we should start giving this guy some credit for a change.
by Derrick on Sep 25, 2005 6:47 PM CDT reply actions
disappeared, if anyone disappeared, it was you, When we were down, didn’t hear from you at all. And if Roy played the coverage last week like he did tonight late in the game, we would be 3-0 .

Newman showed me a lot today. He made a great .. GREAT .. play on the tipped ball interception. He knocked his guy down after the ball was tipped allowing others to get to the free ball. Then he broke up the play that ended in the game clinching INT. He made a couple of nice tackles, especially on the reverse to Battle. Awesome playing!!
Canty was very good. He penetrated the offense time after time to disrupt the offenses rhythym.
Keyshawn … I only have one word for him .. tough.
Bledsoe the same, but he still has happy feet in the pocket. Towards the end of the game though, he seemed to settle in and step up at the right time. That TD run showed how tough he is, and he kept on battling.
Offensive line. Now that is what I am talking about .. get the tough yards (in the 2nd half)!! Win the line of scrimmage and wear down the opponent. Excellent job!!!
Julius Jones .. tough runs!! Behind a FB at times and looked tougher doing that. Shedded would be tacklers and ran straight ahead with burst.
I have been preaching that this team needs to toughen up. Today they took a huge step!! Canty, Glover, and Ferguson are winning the battles in the trenches. Our offensive line is blocking better going straight ahead. Newman is playing like a man on a mission. Having a FB just gave us a tougher feel, and 2 rushing TDs on the goalline isn’t a bad start. Much better. Much tougher.
The negatives: Well obviously our safety play has to get better. .. Henry looked pretty bad. .. I didn’t like seeing Johnson bullrushed into our offensive back field. .. Our pass rush is still getting better, as is Ware. Just seems to me that sometimes they get stood up. .. I hope Cundiff fullt recovers and we can sign him back before we start racking up losses as the result of missed FGs and XPs. .. Although Bledsoe looked much more comfortable as the game went along, his movement within the pocket has been scary to watch. The offensive line is doing a good job .. he should settle down a bit because he has time, and his play can improve.
Todays game ball goes to?? .. I say this was a team effort, but Newman came up with huge plays in crunch time.

Didn’t get to watch the game here in Vegas, but I hear it was ugly. I’ll take the ugly win anytime! Sure beats last week anyday!
Next week will be tough. We have to face Moss, who owns us. Ouch! I like the idea of playing Reeves and/or Pile back there in obvious passing situations and putting Roy at ILB.
Raiders defense isn’t that good, so we should be able to outscore them, unless Moss has a field day. Gotta blitz Kerry Collins often!

YOu think you’re kidding, becker, but I’m almost glad we got behind early- it forced us to keep the playbook open.
ALthough, I liked the way we came out. First play was a pass for first down. saw some playaction. mixed it up.
Hope we fall behind next week! So long as it’s still early in the game- we seem to play pretty well. No joke.
kidding aside- this says a LOT about our team’s character.

… and about ours [character], if we can go at it like cats and dogs all week but still be cool.
I guess a win heals all wounds.
by rich on Sep 25, 2005 8:03 PM CDT reply actions
I won’t say that was an ugly win, Rattay was throwing some pretty good passes and the team proved that they can come from behind in a hostile environment.
On the plus side:
- The rotation on that DL has already counted for 9 sacks in 3 games, 3 sacks a game makes up for for a 48 sacks season. Also has counted for 5 Interceptions.
- Pile didn’t let the receivers get past him.
- Bledsoe’s experience makes up for a QB not letting himself go down after 2 Ints, the ball game goes to him for stepping up for the challenge.
- Terry Glenn has 336 yards in 3 games, in 16 games that makes up for a 1792 yards season… Let’s hope he stays healthy.
- Keyshawn Johnson is a pretty good TE (I’m being funny, right AW?).
- ST’s were solid again
On the down side:
- The OLine is playing too much on the borderline with many plays that could’ve been called back for holdings and pushes on the back.
- The DLine let a couple of power carriers run for 107 yards on 19 carries. Oakland will take note of that, so how many yards Lamont Jordan is going to get on Sunday?
- Anthony Henry in a good day would have been the tackling leader again, but he was in a bad one, let’s hope he finishes the season with just one bad game.
- The Safety play in the first half… No further explaining needed.

Parcells is a dumb ass. For a coach who preaches logic and reasoning, going for it instead of punting it makes him a dumb ass in my book.

A win is a win……..and a road win against a team that is looking tough at home and who we have always struggled with is a great win. Take it and move on.
Next up a dangerous Raiders team that disappointed us all in Philly. Now they got us at home and Randy Moss will be looking to play a little pitch and catch against the Cowboys. Well, Dial up the Blitz boys cuz we only got one shot get to COLLINS!!!
Come on LT and SD………hates you all a few weeks ago but now that you are playing the new york gnats……….go get em Martyball!!! Merriman you listening……….KNOCK ELI OUT……..you are only there cuz of his primadonna act………….GO GET HIM SHAWN you great 12 th overall!!!!
by Jon on Sep 25, 2005 8:17 PM CDT reply actions
Cash,
That was not a good call, but if you’ve watched Parcells in the past, you’ll know he regularly leads the league in 4th and 1 attempts from anywhere on the field, and that his teams frequently convert. This is not out of character for him. What is out of character is that he let the punt team do it. He’ll normally leave the offense out there and let them slug it out.

NE blitzed oakland well enough that they could never get the ball to Moss- and he was open a lot. So yeah- we gotta blitz heavy. ANd how are they against the run?

Raf,
I know its not out of character for him, I just think its a character flaw.

I dont know if any of you guys are watching the giant/charger game, but the chargers are hitting on all cylinders tonight, 21-3 second quarter

Well, we won! But we got problems don’t we. No matter, we are winning games that Campo and crew would have handed freely to our opponents. This team WILL GET BETTER!

EyeamKurgan, every NFL team has problems, don’t they?
But I am trying to understand how the Colts got such a harmless-looking schedule for so many games into the season.
Chargers beating Giants was the only game I saw, and the spread could have been bigger. Florence’s interception, cancelled because of Castillo’s ‘finger slap’ to Eli’s helmet was unjustified.
