Honorable mention: Oakland Raider Charles Woodson made 7 tackles, 1 pass breakup, and 1 interception, which he returned for 30 yards; Oakland lost to the Arizona Cardinals by a score of 24-13; on the other side, linebacker Larry Foote made 4 tackles, 1 tackle for loss, and 1 sack. Linebacker David Harris notched 4 tackles, 1 tackle for loss, 1 sack, and 1 quarterback hurry in the New York Jets' 27-25 loss to the New England Patriots; Patriot quarterback Tom Brady completed 20/37 passes for 261 yards and 3 touchdowns.. Stephen Schilling made his first career start for the Seattle Seahawks at center, but it was a 28-26 loss to the St. Louis Rams. New York Giants running back Michael Cox returned 3 kickoffs for 87 yards (29 yards/return) in a 31-21 loss to the Dallas Cowboys.
Nice to see Denard convert to running back. He has the build for the position. I actually remember saying I thought this would be ideally his best shot at a NFL roster.
ReplyDeleteI do think one of the reasons the RR offensive era wasn't as good against the better programs was Denard was such a poor thrower. Just look at the Arizona qb. He is a much more complete college qb which is what RR needs to have his system succeed at the highest level.
Don't tell me the offense was great under RR against the better programs because it wasn't. At Arizona it is much better because of a qb who can throw and run. Too bad UM couldn't combine Forcier and Denard.
