Random Game Notes 9/9/12

[ChrisPozz]

Fred Jackson out for the game with a knee injury. Ouch. And C.J. Spiller has had 9 carries for 140 yards and a TD.

If one made the choice to take on Turner this year and expected that much from it then I don't feel sorry for any of those people.

They've played the run pretty well on defense but Turner just looks slow to me, he's kind of a one trick pony when it comes to running the ball. Peyton Hillis has more moves than him and that is kinda sad.

Agree with both of these, that's why I stayed away from him like he's a Leper. But, even with that, to not have more than 3 points with all this scoring, lol. I would be breakin' shit.

8-22 for 80 yards and 3 picks for Weeden today.

Surprise Surprise. They might need to have another look at the position.

I know they got a ridiculous deal, but they still should have taken RGIII.

Yeah or tried to sign Flynn or someone. Weeden was just a disaster waiting ot happen, I still can't believe they used a 1st on him.

Dude...it's one game. His FIRST game.

 

[BloodType49]

Henderson knocked out cold , hope he is ok

 

[BINGO]

If Gabbert can improve, so can Weeden. But I see what Dub is saying though. At 28yrs old, they "might" have to reconsider...

Locker to Washington down the field picked off. Washington got crunched between two defenders and wasn't moving initially after the hit. Then, on the INT return Locker got his arm hooked around Chung on the INT return and he's down with an arm injury. Bad, bad news if you're a TEN fan.

Andrew Luck's career is gonna be defined by how good his O-Line is. Give him time to survey the field and make a throw with confidence, and the guy is great. Under pressure, he makes a ton of bad decisions and questionable throws. If the Colts can't find four OLs to go with Costanzo, I can't help but foresee 20 Ints. per year and the bust label.

 

[ChrisPozz]

And they ruled that the Washington catch wasn't even a catch after all. Ouch. Both players still hurt.

 

[Smart]

Right on cue.......

 

[ChrisPozz]

Luck tried forcing a pass between two defenders to Wayne in the endzone. Tipped into the air and picked off.

 

[Dodub]

Dude...it's one game. His FIRST game.

He looked the same way all preseason as well against vanilla defenses. It's not like he has a whole lot of time to develop either.

 

[Dodub]

Fight just broke out in the Cheifs game.

Luck needs a better overall rb than Donald Brown IMO.

 

[NinerSickness]

Locker looks like ge hurt himself tackling a guy after a fumble recovery. The WR was hurt too.

 

[Smart]

Great TD catch for the Rams after a great throw.

 

[ChrisPozz]

Beautiful TD catch by Brandon Gibson for the Rams. Up 20-13 now with 9:45 remaining.

 

[Smart]

That's an interception by Peppers. It'll be #3 for Luck once they overturn the no call. It could easily be #6.

Edit: Actually, not sure they can overturn this. One of those that isn't indisputable in either direction.
