rogers has shown some good potential tonight but boy did he run out of gas. i'm guessing/hoping that's just because he's been injured, but boy does he need to get back in shape quick!

I really think that tonight was the best thing that could have happened to him. Now he knows he can't just mail it in and rely on his athleticism. I'm glad the Williams kept him in there and didn't just take him out! Its important for DB's to learn to forget about the last play!

Rogers got tired, guess that happens when you get back to practice this week after getting hurt.

You called it exactly, props.
At least he made a nice pick and a great run back. Just a Rookie learning the ropes.

I don't think u have to worry about Carlos Rogers getting trashed. He played pretty well. He did get burned, but that was because he was tired and hasn't been in training camp.

Pretty good outing for Carlos. I knew there was a chance he could get burned and he did. But he also got an int.
I think he going to be special when he gets hi legs under him. That will come with conditioning.
I noticed exactly what they did to him. T.J Houshmanzadeh beat him because he was tired but dropped the pass. They knew just like we knew that he was tired. So they bring in Kelly Washington, a burner and it was automatic.
It's ok though this will be a good learning experience for him.

Is it just me or did it seem like Rogers conceded too early? I keep looking at that play and it looks like he gave up on it before he even caught the ball. Maybe it's just me.

Rogers played okay for a rookie last night. The interception was gift wrapped to him, it was thrown right to him. Not like he mad a great break on the ball 
And he was definatly tired when he got burned back to back. I guess conditioning is something they will work on with him as the preseason goes on. I dont think 22 suits him well either

He's out of shape, you can tell by his body language. He still had an amazing night, he has to get his legs under him.

Carlos did excellent. Greg left him on that island for a reason. I bet he is running right now as we speak.

Being humble is a great virtue. So, being placed in a position to be humbled is great.
Carlos Rogers just heard a bit of the Gospel last night. I love G. Williams approach to rookies.
This kid will be our best CB for a long time. Champ who?

Welcome to the board!
I agree that 22 just doesn't seem to be his right number...perhaps thats why he got burned? Find this guy the right number and he'll be going to the HOF!

No. I think I was pretty accurate in what I said was going to happen. (He got an int and he got burned). My thread served its purpose. He is going to be fine. I'm glad I don't see a lot of threads bashing him. He is a rookie DB he will make mistakes, but he will make plays too.
I see good things coming from cash.

How is Mike Williams doing?

Four catches for 54yds in two games. Against the Jets he made two catches for 14yds each and against Cleveland he made two for 13yds each. I guess that's OK for a rookie. I think he's playing as the fourth reciever on the depth chart right now.

Williams would be our number 2 or 3 receiver.....id still rather have Carlos as a cover corner any day!
