Oh well. It wasn't all terrible but they definitely know now that RT and QB are areas of concern.

The Hugh Douglas on the Eagles broadcast team has been ripping on Cousins all night.

I'm liking Kruger

**wickedsolo** · 08-11-2011, 09:36 PM

Harper could have been the hero there.

Went right through his arms.

I would not want to be O'Neil Cousins in the film room tomorrow watching the game w/ coaches.

Well that was pretty brutal, but a few positives at least. Nice to see Kindle & Kruger in and around the play so much, Pitta looked good, and a few flashes from some of the other guys.

Plenty of work still to do both on the field and for the front office though.

Rightfully so.

Cousins got destroyed by the Eagles' practice squad guys.

I could have played better than Cousins. I'm not even joking.

**ActualSpamBot** · 08-11-2011, 09:38 PM

Sloptastic game but injury free.

Pretty much what most predicted and hoped for respectively.

And for good reason. I swear if he makes the team I am going to scream. There has to be someone better out there. And what the heck was his tender worth?

There's your cap space to bring in someone else.

If they're smart, Cousins won't even get to the film room. He'll be escorted off the property prior to.

1 dropped pass = crappy hands?

Give me a break.

He showed more than any other receiver on our roster tonight.

I liked what I saw from Tandon Doss most of the night. Arthur Jones has progressed nicely. Jalen Parmele looked better than I have ever seen him.

**ballhawk** · 08-11-2011, 09:41 PM

Pitta looked great.

**Ibravenfan** · 08-11-2011, 09:44 PM

Positive's: Benard Pollard. 1 int. QB sack. Nicknamed "Bonecrusher"
Looks like a good pickup.

**Carey** · 08-11-2011, 09:44 PM

Offensively i think 2 major things were missing, Leach lead blocking is gonna be a big part of what we do. Also seems like we may go more to 2 TE sets this year because those TE's are gonna be ahead of the WR's, cant wait to see Dickson and Pitta out there together.

LaQuan is a ST'er. He can also move well and caught the ball well most of the night.

He's not competing with Doss, TSmith, etc. The guy he's competing with would be Marcus Smith.

Tell me, how did Marcus SMith do catching the ball?
