September 1, 20196 yr I'll go with Ingram: 11 carries for 78 yards and a score, plus 3 catches for 43 yards. And he had to make something out of nothing on several of those runs.
September 1, 20196 yr I guess I sort of expected Ingram to do what he did, with Humphrey gone he is our best offensive weapon...that doesn't play QB anyway.

Kick coverage was awesome too. Owens literally made LaTech quit trying to return the ball. Edited September 1, 20196 yr by pacman
September 1, 20196 yr sweat was pretty impressive, playing well in the trenches as a true freshman in week 1.
September 1, 20196 yr Jalen Green for me. Looks like a legit shut down corner in time. He's damn good right now. He's got a great frame and athleticism. I will say Eagles looks athletic as fuck. His testing numbers really translated to the field tonight. (I thought he looked a little stiff last year.) Physically, he reminds me of Dez Bryant. Edited September 1, 20196 yr by RabidM
September 1, 20196 yr So many impressive performances from young guys: Eagles, Ingram, Green, etc. Some flashes from Smith. Sweat looks good. I gotta go with Ossai. Dude is gonna be a problem for offenses.
September 1, 20196 yr There are some players who, from the first time they step on the field as true freshmen, already stand out, guys like Shaun Rogers, Derrick Johnson, Cedric Benson, Vince Young, and Caden Sterns. I'm not sure Sweat flashed to that level, but he sure looked like he belonged. From his first play, you're already turning your head saying, "Who's that?" It was also interesting to see Jake Smith targeted 8 times. Some of those throws were a bit off and the routes he was asked to run didn't always play to his strengths, but the number of looks he got tells you Sam already has a lot of confidence in him.
September 1, 20196 yr Defense needs more intensity and less missed tackles if they’re going to hang with LSU

I both agree, and noticed that when Sterns was in the game he made absurdly athletic, hard hitting plays. Our safety lineup is just NSFW.
September 1, 20196 yr Ossai. A handful of collapsed pockets even when he didn’t make the play. Guy’s a monster like Kindle and Orakpo.

September 1, 20196 yr Popular Post I was really impressed with the “team” mentality, more so than any individual performance. One of several examples is Eagles looking like a complete stud, yet instead of showboating he runs to celebrate the guys who allowed those plays to develop.

September 1, 20196 yr On that kickoff, I thought 44 was a big ass linebacker I had forgotten about. Nope. That’s Owens, a DB. Damn.
September 1, 20196 yr Maybe a handful of designed Sam runs meant the OL had to really do their job on all fronts. Seemed like they did tonight, my drunk ass doesn’t remember any holding calls.
September 1, 20196 yr Overshown with the delayed blitz looking sack and uber athletic diving interception really stood out in the second half. Yuge upside still available for that diaper dandy.
September 1, 20196 yr The O Line. Sam had great protection and a clean pocket all night. Haven't seen that in a while.
September 1, 20196 yr Iggles. We might have a certified badass-in-real-life at receiver, instead of a guy who looks good in 1 game and then disappears (not entirely their fault of course).
September 1, 20196 yr 8 minutes ago, phdhorn said: Yeah, Duve would be my #2 last night. Guy is a gamer. If only he had good hands, then he’d be #1.
September 1, 20196 yr Aside from all those mentioned, I was impressed with Roschon Johnson and his "just happy to be here, hope I can help the ballclub" attitude. He looked like a guy that could play running back if needed.
