Sloppy from the weather or sloppy from the mix of nervous rookies?

Bit of both. Typical missed tackles and being out of position early on, especially on the Titans first TD. Peppers got sealed on the outside and Jones overcommitted to the middle allowing Greene to go untouched.

Well it was the first preseason game. Week to watch film and then we do it again.

Meh. Starks killed it on the first drive, about fifty yards on 6 carries and a nice TD run. Defense looked sloppy, Adams muffed two punts. Rodgers, Lacy, and Nelson didn't play. Downpoured really bad.


the return game is going to be an issue because so far, we haven't had success with anyone in TC and apparently during the first game. would obviously be preferred not to have tramon/cobbgod back there but it seems we don't have many options. optimist in me wants to believe that the rain made fielding a punt nearly impossible and that adams still has something to offer in that department and in the WR corps

I wasn't worried as much about muffing a couple punts in that weather in his first game. I was more bothered by deciding to go after both of them. Second one was definitely something you get away from and hope it rolls into the endzone.

They said that Adams doesn't look exactly like a returner in practice either, I hope Janis gets a shot. Mark my word, he'll surprise you. I know you guys talk about the DII thing, but watch if he gets some opportunities, he's my dark horse.

Any news on R. Neal and J. Thomas injuries?
