Not hard to guess...a little Smoot sounds good....that's pathetic...Thank God for All Universe Sean Taylor there at the end of the half...

offense looks pathetic...

I don't know but he had our secondary for LUNCH.

I used to like Holt, but that classless act of taunting after his TD pass made me lose all respect for him. I could nearly understand him doing it to a Champ Bailey or another top CB, but to do it to someone who's just trying to make the team shows how little class that he has.

Holt is an exceptional receiver that really showed little/no class there after the TD. Our secondary will learn from tonight...trust me.

He is a great reciever. One thing I kept thinking is that Holt would've caught 2 of those 3 incompletions that Thrash couldn't come up with. Am I wrong?

Look...Thrash didn't do a bad job tonight. Ramsey just couldn't throw the balls decent enough for him to catch!

Don't misunderstand me. It wasn't a knock against Thrash, but Holt is one of those recievers that plucks balls out of the air that most recievers (even good ones like Thrash) aren't quite able to get.

Holt tore up a zone - usually against Lott, Bauman, Jimoh or Ralph Brown. Smoot looked bad in the original plays, but if you look at the replays Holt had just made a move into a gap caused when a zone player didn't get there in time to cover Holt moving into the zone - Smoot had already released several times

The one or two times Smoot had him man to man - he covered him well - including a deflection

Springs did well enough - got bent a little by Bruce, but that happens...

Oh - and one thing - Springs stayed home well on that half back pass play didn't he?
