Leake is so useless compared to Rankin.  I have no idea why they give the guys equal time.  When Leake is in LBs/DBs can play looser.

Willie still got it.  Critics a wee quiet.

2 and Out again. Nice job. Secondary holding up there.

Decent return Vaval.

Leake been better as of late.  Rankin gone cold.

Zach's just too slow

He is.. but he usually just crumbles in the pocket and tonite hes trying to escape atleast

Hes playing his best game in a about 3 years

[Tecno]

I like how Vaval forces cover teams to give up yards in order to ensure they stop the home run.  Helps us get a higher minimum & avg.  Grant used to do the same thing for us.  Very handy cheat code, especially late in games when they need to stop a FG or something.

Make Milt EAT his words.

[Go_Big_D]

gotta keep this type of play in the second half instead of going into a D shell

[Big Daddy]

Okay so they don't open the upper decks there I assume?

Is Zach changing the plays at line?

Yes, they mentioned on CJOB how he has done that a couple of times because he read how the defense was lined up and so he changed it against the coverage. He's had a great game so far.

Love that draw play 2nd and long.

[GOLDMEMBER]

Nice kick She-Hand

[Blueforlife]

Very nice kick on the move.  Lucky to have him.  So steady.

Think 2nd order effects.  Rankin going cold means more of our guys are playing the run, not the pass.  LBs/DBs cheating up to the line to help stop Rankin.  They don't do that for Leake.
