The extra bad news is the Cards lost a couple of other starters in this game..............Sunday will be interesting. i do nt know when the PUP list wil be issued , but it's liable to grow.....DARN.
We won and that's great but it seams that Special teams are a problem ,,,,,Why?
Gunners being taken out?
Poor tackleing?
To many guys that are new, inexperience? Last yr we seemed to use left overs to put the Special Teams together.
Re: Re: Damien Anderson
I use to HATE this guy.............that's because he ran all over my Illinois team..we lost about 66 to 0.......BUT i am loving him now that he is on our Cardinal team.
There are no guaranteed salaries...............only the signing bonus.
Maybe they figure the best players that are left will be cut last.........but seems like you would get asigning as soon as possible if there was a position player you really needed .
I hope they put matches between all there toes.............. just in case they need to use them.

The game has evolved beyond being a good LS. 31 of the 32 teams have exclusive LS because its a skill position. Many have tried to learn it, to give themselves an advantage . Only a handful have mastered it.
Players stats are probowl matierial in the 1st 2 games. Especially balls downed inside the 20.
Billy G has increased his kickoffs to about the 5 yard line and Duncan's go about 5 to 6 yds farther but the key is hang time......Duncan about 3.2 sec and BG about 4.0
Kickers were averaging 65 and 71 yds - not bad, the ball is getting to the goal line.
THEN all returns by the Chargers seemed to be about 30 yds.
This is not good. Could only listen to the game last night, so was itpoor hang time, poor coverage, poor tackles - all and more? The kick...
