Sundays always take forever to come, but this one snuck up pretty fast. Having finals has its pluses I guess. I am excited to watch too. Is anyone going to watch the Oklahoma and Missouri game right now? Chase Coffman, William Moore, and Gresham all on display right now.

I'm going to go ahead and say Moore gets burnt a bit tonight.

Coffman really can't change his stock much at this point.

Jermaine Gresham is a baller, but to improve his stock much more he will need to do it at the combine.

yea i posted in the draft thread earlier that everyone should watch this game. Jermaine Gresham is looking pretty good so far with 2 catches in the first drive. Chase Coffman dropped a crutial ball that would of been a first down. William Moore was around the ball, he took down Gresham in the first play of the game.

Also DT Evander Hood is getting to Sam Bradford pretty good, and maclin had a few balls thrown his way. Prospects lookin good so far, i wanna see coffman catching some balls and hurdling some dude.

Keep a lookout at McCoy as well. I would love for him to come out and if we could nab him. That would definitely be my dream scenario as of now.

D-Rod · 12-06-2008, 08:02 PM

Character concerns for McCoy?

BamaFalcon59 · 12-06-2008, 08:05 PM

Teams like New England have proven that if there is a good amount of leadership on the team, a team can take a risk on iffy characters.

Head coach Mike Smith, Matt Ryan, Michael Turner, Lawyer Milloy, etc won't allow distractions.

If he has the talent I think we can afford to take him.

d34ng3l021 · 12-06-2008, 08:17 PM

What are his character concerns? And what Bama said is true. Give him a great environment with leaders, and I do not expect anything to get out of hand.

Well it's also proven you can take the guy out of the hood, but you cant take the hood out of the guy. The environment and people have something to do about that, but what it all comes down to is his deciding and what HE does.

Big game Today fellas. Will shape up to be a big day for us as a W would pull us even in the division and w/ a Dallas L (very probale considering they are playing Pittsburgh at Pitt w/o Marion Barber and possibly w/o Ware) would give us a 1 game lead in the WC.

It all starts with us Winning though. Lets hope Mike Smith kept the guys calm and on a "1 game at a time" mentality. We can't afford to get ahead of ourselves just yet. The Dream Season is there for our taking.

That ESPN cover is sick.

Huge game.

If we win this, I think that we make the playoffs.

We have to get pressure on Brees; the game will be won or lost by our D-line.

Bosanac01 · 12-07-2008, 12:41 PM

Not looking too good so far, that int Matt Ryan threw was horrible. He got read all the way and just looped out there. The o-line cant seem to get any running lanes anymore.

Draft King · 12-07-2008, 12:53 PM

This would be our first win after facing a first quarter deficit, or the other team scoring first. So far, as I have thought all week, we're not looking good. We are giving huge holes in the running games, but at least we have shut them down on 3rd and 1. In this 2nd quarter we need our offense to pick it up against a porous defense.
