Thank God it's the first game, and we can improve. And thank God it's against Detroit. We still have a chance. But this defense needs to shape up quickly.

Too bad he was forced out of bounds. Ponder plays better scrambling and sweeping.

Man coverage though...Got to lead him and he needs to make a play. That's how it's designed.Purplemania wrote: Simpsons still had to reach slightly for the ball. maybe it's just me, but on a simple slant, 3 yard slant nonetheless, it should be BAM right between the numbers. I mean it is a 3 yard pass.

Sweet. Simpson can stay on the field. Could've been thrown a bit further.
