Wide Recievers

1) Sidney Rice (A-)

Last week C+

THE GOOD:

Sidney was running his routes well and had sharp cuts getting good separation from the defender. He was an active blocker for teammates on the wide receiver screen, screen, and running plays. Twice he had very nice chop blocks.

THE BAD:

On one play he was running a come back route but was a little lazy at the top of the route and instead of driving back towards the ball he was moving slow which allowed the defender to come up and knock it out of his hands.

2) Ben Obomanu (B)

This was his first action of the preseason.

THE GOOD:

Ben was running good routes and was also able to find the soft spots in the zone. He showed some moves getting enough Yards After Catch (YAC) to pick up the first down. Obomanu also did a nice job crashing down on the line to block in the running game.

THE BAD:

When he caught the screen pass he had the outside open for big yardage but chose instead to cut it inside where defenders were waiting.

3) Mike Williams (B-)

Last week C

THE GOOD:

He was blocking down field in the running game, running good routes and used his big body to shield the defender from the ball on a slant route where he was well covered.

THE BAD:

He fell down on a comeback route that would have led to a first down.

4) Doug Baldwin and Isaiah Stanback (C+)

Last week Doug Baldwin B+ and Isaiah C

THE GOOD:

Doug had a 105 yard kick return for a touchdown. Isaiah had a big hit on the punt returner after he muffed the punt ensuring that the returner would have no chance to recover the ball.

THE BAD:

Baldwin fair caught a punt when he had more then enough room to make something happen. Stanback did not see much action during the game.

6) Kris Durham (C)

Last week he led all receivers with an A

7) Pat Williams and Ricardo Lockette (C-)

Last week Pat D- and Ricardo C

THE GOOD:

Neither player had any above average plays but neither was in very much either.

THE BAD:

Pat got called for holding on a punt return and Ricardo was off sides on a kickoff.

Tight Ends

1) Dominique Byrd (B-)

Last week C

THE GOOD:

He was able to get wide open in the back of the end zone and caught the pass for a touchdown.

THE BAD:

That is the only time he was targeted in the game.

2) Zach Miller (C)

Last week C-. Worth noting is that he was not targeted during the game.

3) Anthony McCoy (C-)

Last week he led the position with a A-

THE GOOD:

He made a defender look silly when he leaped over him because the defender put his head down.

THE BAD:

Was unable to seal the edge in the running game and Gallery had to help him and then Anthony tried to get to the 2nd level but was unable to quickly enough to make a difference. He also gave up a sack to Von Miller.

I apologize that these are coming out a little slower this week. The short week and being under the weather has slowed me down but I will get them all up before the game tomorrow.
