Notes from Stillers-Eagles
- Anyone see the outrageous cheap shot on Ben's KNEES on the 1st or 2nd play
last nite
?? Defender took THREE steps after the
pass was released, then GOT LOWER and barreled into Ben's knees. No
flag. Unreal.
Later, Ben was twisting away from a weak-assed grab at his ANKLES on a sack
attempt, and the fastest whistle in history stopped the play.
It can't be BOTH ways, where Ben takes exorbitant punishment after the pass
with no flags, but then is whistled down after a cheesy ankle
grab. Screw the NFL.
- Redman looked quite good. Tomlin, the dolt, MUST give Red some PT
and not wear down Mendy so much.
Redman is a legit NFL back.
- Dwyer looks like he's still 255, at least. What a fat
fuck.
- Warren (#30, the DB) looked capable
and instinctive. Was in on a lot of plays.
Warren is an interesting fellow.
All-Big 10 as a junior. Came out early. Had a round 3 grade. Ran horribly at
the combine. Dropped out of the draft.
Got a shot as an UDFA with the Jets last year but missed too much time in
camp/preseason with a concussion to make an impression. I would think he�s in the frontrunning to make this team.
- I hate the new KO placement at the 35. It's nearly an automatic
TB. What we need to do, is get a "9 -iron" KO
that goes high and lands at the ONE, forcing the team to return it......but
it's so high that our coverage teams smother the man at the
10. Then again, our coverage teams probably suck
ass.
- Miller is still lined up as a sidecar far too much. Yes, the
tackles are hobbled. It�s a waste of a
great pass-catching resource, however.
- 2 more tackles went down, Jon Scott and the rookie Gilbert. Just
hyperextensions, but could be nagging injuries. I still
cannot fathom why Essex wasn't brought in for depth.
- Gee, the defense looked dominant in shutting down the passing of Vick
and Young !! Watch our, Tom Brady ! (sic)
- Keenan Lewis looked ok. Perhaps he can contribute this
season.
- Sylvester continues to impress. He, along with Worilds, should have been ample reason to not lavish Big LaMarr with $61M.
- Pola looked superb. Let's hope he can remain
healthy.
- Hopefully Ryan can give us a better look next week. Our
obvious weakness is defending the PASS. We need to defend
against better passers than Michael Dick and Vince Young.
- Jerrico Cotch ! Liked the guy with the Jets, LOVE the dude now.
He's strong as an ox, and is quick and smooth. Very reliable. He showed his value last nite. A rare but savvy move by Colbert. And to
think the dumbfuck was trying to sign Jaxico. With
Sanders hobbled, Cotch becomes very
critical. We can line up 4 very capable WRs on passing
downs......2 flyers, and 2 reliable veterans. I likes it.
A
special shout out to Alice Cooper bassist and longtime Stillers.com follower Chuck
Garric, who rocked da house
last Friday evening with Alice Cooper at Stage AE in Pittsburgh (right near
Heinz Field, no less.) Chuck came out on stage with a Terrible Towel
and showed his Stiller allegiance. For the encore, Alice himself donned a James
Harrison jersey and waved a Terrible Towel.
If only Roger Fucking Goodell could have been
in attendance.
