Hall of Fame Game thread

Did you guys hear the tail end of Reid's press conference?

Paraphrasing here... "are you concerned with the offense's imbalance on the first drive with the running game?"

Wise asses.

[Dillen]

I dont know if it was mentioned, but Dexter Wynn should have been cut immediately after the game. He was drafted as a return specialist that can play a bit at CB, and he sucks at both. I counted SIX TIMES where he gave up a first down on 3rd down. Ridiculous.

[MadMarchHare]

Don't kid yourself.  He was brought in solely to return.  He's Westbrook's size, for Christ's sake.

He and Bruce Perry probably had the worst games out of anyone on the team.

I'd say Howard, McCoy, Justice, and even Reed stood out.

Reed about killed himself and two other people on that hit that made the Raider bite his tongue off. Aren't they supposed to wear mouthpieces to prevent that?

[Dillen]

It isnt something worth paying attention to, but the players almost always take out their mouth pieces after the play and forget to put it back in maybe 98% of the time.

There's one guy who's not going to forget for a while.

That was an awesome hit.  Talk about separating the ball from the receiver.  I especially like the fact that he knocked the air out of Joselio Hanson, through McMahan.

[General_Failure]

That's one thing (out of many) from the announcers that I didn't like. They did not spend any time talking about Reed or Tapeh coming back from career-threatening injuries. Sure, Tapeh was out there all of two plays, but Reed was all over the place.

[Dillen]

Was anyone surprised that Madden managed to make 3 or 4 minutes of the broadcast 100% Hank Fraley?

[Beermonkey]

I'm surprised that there was no mention of Terrell Owens last night.

[Susquehanna Birder]

Was anybody else surprised that Al Michaels actually called almost half the game before the broadcast turned into "The Anything But What's Happening On The Field Show?"

[General_Failure]

Not really. Every year I forget how awful any announcers are until I hear them again.

[T_Section224]

they do get old quick

[Diomedes]

Thanks to everyone who posted throughout the game yesterday.  Y'all are better than the talking heads we're bitching about now, not least because I don't have to actually listen to you...
