I'm more impressed with EJ Manuel than I ever was with Christian Ponder.

 

[NinerSickness]

AMAZING play by Manuel to evade the rush & throw a long TD right on the momey on the run. Too bad it'll come back for holding.

Manuel > Ponder.

 

[NinerSickness]

Brandon Jenkins with great pursuit on the run play & then gets in to tip the pass on a 3 step drop on the next play. Quick off the snap.

 

[NinerSickness]

Jenkins drops into coverage faking the blitz from a 2 point stance...

DB Blittz got the hit on Jones & caused a pick.

I know i am way late on this, but Bray has a long ways to go. When he has a clean pocket to step up and throw he does just fine, but when he's dealing with pressure he looks very uncomfortable and re-sets his feet on a constant basis. It doesn't help that his line sucks and his Center can't even get him the fucking ball, though.

 

[NinerSickness]

Great quick pass accross the middle to pick up the first on 3rd down by Manuel.

 

[NinerSickness]

What a strike! Manuel his Kenny Shaw over the middle; unfortunately for him he got decked & dropped the ball. Great pass though; kind of Favre-esque getting his WR killed, but it would've been a 30-or-so yard TD if Shaw held on.

I'm EXTREMELY impressed by Manuel. Landry Jones looks great, but I expected that.

Wait, its being reviewed...

 

[NinerSickness]

Shaw is still down. Ouch.

 

[tomikcon1971]

Kind of hard to hold the ball when you are unconscious....the way his arms stayed in the air I think he might have knocked out.

Full of excuses eh?

That's cold dude.....I'd normally chuckle but the guy's still on the turf. I know you don't mean any harm, so I'm not chastising you.

 

[NinerSickness]

Yes, of course. Not trying to make light of Shaw getting blown up like that. Hope he's ok.

 

[tomikcon1971]

They verified he was knocked out....hope he's okay.

 

[NinerSickness]

Heck of a throw though even though he nearly got his WR's head taken off. Not saying it was the right decision, but he got the ball there about as well as humanly possible.

 

[tomikcon1971]

Good news they are reporting he (Shaw) has movement in all his extremities.....those kinds of injuries are so scary.

 

[NinerSickness]

Anyone else notice how quick Jenkins is off the snap? I wonder what his vertical & long jump will be at the combine; he seems to have a cat-like explosive movement.

Other than the injury, it had the potential to be a hell of a TD.....

 

[NinerSickness]

I'm not as impressed by Datko as most people see to be. Seems to move a little awkwardly. Looks like an NFL caliber OL though. I'll keep an eye on him...

If you think Manuel > Ponder, your tripping. Manuel is no way near as polished as a passer nor smart as Ponder..

Well considering I thought Ponder was a mediocre player I'm gonna have to disagree with you. I don't think he'll amount to much in the NFL, and Manuel at least looks like he has talent.
