    Preseason Week 1



    Thursday August 13, 2009


    Headlines

    [CHI] Burress Returns
    Plaxico Burress will be making his NFL return in a Chicago Bears uniform. Burress; (86ovr) age 32, will be coming in to assist a young and unproven wide receiver group.

    The Bears selected two wide receivers in this year's NFL draft. Juaquin Iglesias (69ovr) in the third round out of Oklahoma and Johnny Knox (62ovr) in the fifth from Abilene Christian. Adding to a group headed by Devin Hester; (72ovr) the incredible return specialist, who had a career high of 51 receptions. However, Hester was not much of a presence in the redzone; he had just two receiving touchdowns in 2008.

    There is also a big question mark next to Earl Bennett's name (72ovr). Bennett a 2007 third round pick from Vanderbilt did not see the field his rookie year.

    Pick Analysis:

    Burress was premiere receiver in the NFL in his younger days. He is most likely not the same elite athlete he once was, but he should be a solid piece for Chicago to build around. Burress at age 32 should have a couple more good years of solid production in the NFL and should be the Bears' No.1 receiver from day one.

    Tight end Greg Olsen was the main redzone target last season with 5 receiving touchdowns. With Burress's large frame (6'5" 226lbs) he should give quarterback Jay Cutler another reliable target to throw to in the redzone.

    The arrival of Plaxico should also take a lot of the pressure to perform off of the younger guys like Earl Bennett; who would have been expected to start this season. Bennett along with the two rookies should now see more of a slot receiver; limited playing type role.

    Plaxico on paper looks like a perfect fit in Chicago if he can still perform at a high enough level.


    [OAK] Raiders Do It Again
    A lot of the football world was stunned as they watched the Oakland Raiders select wide receiver Darius Heyward Bey (76ovr) over Michael Crabtree (84ovr) in the first round of this year's NFL draft.

    Well they did it again. Shocking everyone in the NFL with the acquisition of wide receiver Marvin Harrison. Harrison was believed to be retiring after he was unable to reach a new contract with the Colts this past offseason. The 1 year deal worth $5.21M brought a seemingly dying career back to life.

    Like a lot of these early preseason deals; Harrison will be bringing a lot of experience to a group of young athletes in Oakland.

    Pick Analysis:

    There aren't many successful 37 year old wide receivers in the NFL. The addition of Harrison definitely won't hurt the Raiders, but anyone who is expecting big numbers from Harrison this year don't hold your breathe. Oakland's best bet is the development of either Darius Heyward Bey or 4th round selection Louis Murphy (71ovr) from Florida.


    [BAL] McAllister Will Finish a Raven?
    Baltimore was finally able to make a deal with their former 1999 1st round draft pick Chris McAllister (86ovr). It came at a price though; a contract worth $7.87M over the course of one year, the most expensive deal this preseason. The cornerback will pair with Dominique Foxworth (82ovr); an offseason addition from the Atlanta Falcons.

    McAllister will be entering his 11th season with the Ravens at age 32; he has recorded 25 career interceptions with the Ravens. McAllister was quoted saying that he has high hopes for the team and is happy to be in the position he is in; he hopes to retire as a Raven.

    We want you to weigh in with your opinions on the topic

    Who will have the better season? Harrison or Burress

      News

      [OAK] QB Battle
      Oakland just made recent headlines with the signing of wide receiver Marvin Harrison, but now attention is being directed onto who will be throwing to Harrison. Yes that is right ladies and gentleman there is a quarterback battle brewing in Oakland. After mediocre passing statistics and little success in the wins department. The pressure in finding a quarterback that will help the Raiders win is now higher than ever. The candidates are Jamarcus Russell (72ovr), Jeff Garcia (75ovr), and Andrew Walter (57ovr).

      Jamarcus Russell the 2007 first overall pick is currently taking the majority of the first team snaps this offseason, and is expected to make the start against the Cowboys later tonight. However, veteran Jeff Garcia has also looked good and has the potential to beat out Russell as the starter. Russell does have age going form, he is only entering his 3rd NFL season and Garcia is 39 years old. So if things get close Oakland will likely just stick with the younger arm that they spent multi-millions on. We are not saying Russell is a shoe in, it is still any ones race to win. The Raiders want wins and if they think Jeff Garcia gives them the best chance to win then you can expect to see Garcia taking the field on Sundays for Oakland.

        Game to Watch

        Raiders 23, Cowboys 7

        Top Performers:
        J.Garcia- QB rating 91.2, 10/15, 141 yards, 1 TD, 1INT
        M.Barber- 10 att, 89 yards
        J.Fargas- 9 att, 52 yards

        T.Kelly- 3 tackles, 1 sack
        Nnamdi Asomugha- 3 tackles, 2 ints, 1 def TD


        Scoring Summary
        1st quarter (DAL) J.Phillips 4 yard pass from T.Romo (N.Folk kick) 0-7 (2:33)

        2nd quarter (OAK) S.Janikowski, 24 yard field goal 3-7 (3:40)

        3rd quarter (OAK) L.Murphy 45 yard pass from J.Garcia (S.Janikowski kick) 10-7 (4:00)
        3rd quarter (OAK) N.Asomugha, returned interception 24 yards (S.Janikowski kick) 17-7 (0:22)

        4th quarter (OAK) S.Janikowski, 20 yard field goal 20-7 (2:33)
        4th quarter (OAK) S.Janikowski, 24 yard field goal 23-7 (0:00)


        Overview
        Dallas came out and looked sharp on offense with Tony Romo and Marion Barber driving down the field at will early on. However, that all changed after the 1st quarter, after Romo went out there was little production in the passing game and the weight was put on Barber's shoulders. Barber carried that load pretty good breaking tackles and running hard with almost 90 total yards on the ground in the first half.

        Other than Barber looking really good the Cowboys team struggled. Jon Kitna came in and threw 3 int; two to cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha.

        Oakland had some really bright spots in their offensive game. A lot of there 2nd teamers came in and lit up the scoreboard. Jeff Garcia played a great game and was almost perfect except for the 1 interception he threw to Gerald Sensabaugh in the endzone. Garcia was a confident leader finding his favorite target Louis Murphy who made more noise tonight than counterparts Darius Heyward Bey and Marvin Harrison; who both couldn't manage to haul in one measly catch. Justin Fargas also managed to capitalize on the night after a disappointing performance by Darren McFadden, Fargas seemed like the better of the two backs.

        Oakland has a lot of decisions coming up in the coming weeks. Expect to see Jeff Garcia take the field next week against the opposing teams number one's. Also, expect to see Fargas's carries to go up especially if McFadden has another sloppy performance like this one. Sorry Oakland it looks like you might have to wait another year to see your younger drafted players perform if Jeff Garcia and Justin Fargas have anything to say about it.

          News

          [NYJ] Rookie Quarterback to Make the Start
          Mark Sanchez (78ovr) has been taking most of the preseason snaps in mini camps and practices and is expected to start against the Rams later on tonight. The first round draft pick will have his advantages and disadvantages going into the 2008 season if he does end up becoming the starter for the Jets.

          Advantages:
          1)One of the best offensive lines in the NFL
          2)A good running duo with Thomas Jones (90ovr) and Leon Washington (79ovr)
          3) A weak St. Louis defensive squad to go up against in his first preseason game

          Disadvantages:
          1)He will be throwing to a lacking receiver group with Jericho Cotchery (81ovr) and Chansi Stuckey (67ovr) being all New York has to work with in terms of starting wide receivers.
          2)A tight end with great upside Dustin Keller (77ovr) is only entering his 2nd season and has not become a reliable option at tight end in this point of his career
          3)Sanchez is a rookie! Sanchez like any other rookie quarterback will not be perfect and will make plenty of mistakes.

            Game to Watch


            Rams 14, Jets 9

            Top Performers:
            M.Bulger- QB rating 148.6, 5/6, 61 yards, 1TD,0INT
            J.Cotchery- 4 rec, 76 yards

            O.Atogwe- 7 tackles
            A.Carriker- 4 tackles, 3 TFL, 2 sacks


            Scoring Summary
            1st quarter (STL) K.Burton 37 yard pass from M.Bulger (J.Brown kick) 7-0 (0:12)

            2nd quarter (NYJ) J.Carney , 31 yard field goal 7-3 (3:19)
            2nd quarter (STL) A.Carriker, returned interception 26 yards (J.Brown kick) 14-3 (1:52)
            2nd quarter (NYJ) J.Carney, 21 yard field goal 14-6 (0:37)

            3rd quarter (NYJ) J.Feely, 21 yard field goal 14-9 (1:24)

            4th quarter NO SCORE



            Overview
            Mark Sanchez's play was anything but spectacular in the first half. Sanchez was very inconsistent one drive he would complete six consecutive passes, the next he would throw an interception in the redzone. Then he would complete a beautiful pass to Jericho Cotchery for 24 yards. His performance would have been average if it weren't for all the turnovers he produced 2 interceptions and 1 fumble. He often held on to the ball to long and made poor inaccurate throws that cost the Jets points.

            Adam Carriker was a force to be reckoned with in the first half and Mark Sanchez's worst nightmare. Carriker had 2 sacks on Sanchez one in which he managed to jar the ball loose. He not only reeked havoc in the back field but he managed to return a tipped pass for a touchdown. Making Sanchez's first NFL experience an unpleasant one.

            The Rams didn't have much excitement on offense the only big play of the game for them was a 37 yard pass to second year man Keenan Burton for a touchdown. However, the Rams defense was a whole different story they came out and played well creating 4 sacks, forcing 3 interception, and getting a score of their own up on the board. The Rams also created three impressive redzone stops and a turnover on downs late in the fourth when the Jets were driving down the field for the go ahead win.

              The injury to Walt Harris's knee that was to be determined has now been diagnosed and it doesn't look good for either parties. Harris is expected to miss the remainder of the season with a completely torn ACL.

              It doesn't end there for San Francisco, another injury to the defensive side of the ball occurred today. Starting defensive tackle Isaac Sopoaga (80ovr) has him scheduled to be out for about 10 weeks. This is another huge blow to the 49ers and their preseason has just begun. Expect 49ers to hit the market with only one other defensive tackle listed on the roster; Aubrayo Franklin (67ovr).

                News

                [DET]More On Rookie Quarterbacks
                After a disappointing showing by fellow rookie quarterback Mark Sanchez; 1st overall pick Matthew Stafford (79ovr) looks to have a better day against the Atlanta Falcons.

                Stafford was ranked the better of the two by NFL scouts and was selected #1 in this years NFL draft. Stafford looks a little bit better off in the receiver department with a great target to throw to; Calvin Johnson (92ovr), and other 1st round selection tight end Brandon Pettigrew (80ovr) from Oklahoma St.

                Besides having Calvin Johnson there isn't much upside on the Detroit Lions on either side of the ball. Stafford will be coming into a team that went 0-16 during the 2008 season. There is also a concern in the run game as well as the offensive line supporting Stafford. Jeff Backus (77ovr) is the best offensive lineman Detroit has to offer, he will be responsible for protecting Stafford's blind side.

                Backus has a pretty big task ahead of him today having to guard pass rushing defensive end John Abraham (95ovr). In terms of defensive ends none are much better than Abraham this will be a good challenge to get Backus's mind right for the season. This matchup up should also be a good indicator of how many times Stafford's line will be picking him back up off the ground.

                  Game to Watch

                  J.Dizon- 6 tackles
                  A.Harris- 3 tackles, 2INTs


                  Scoring Summary
                  1st quarter (DET) J.Hanson, 47 yard field goal 0-3 (3:11)
                  1st quarter (ATL) J.Norwood, returned kickoff 97 yards (J.Elam kick) 7-3 (2:58)
                  1st quarter (DET) J.Hanson, 33 yard field goal 7-6 (0:18)

                  2nd quarter (DET) M.Stafford, 5 yard run (J.Hanson kick) 7-13 (0:54)
                  2nd quarter (DET) B.Pettigrew 2 yard pass from M.Stafford (J.Hanson kick) 7-20 (0:34)

                  3rd quarter (ATL) J.Norwood, 3 yard run (J.Elam kick) 14-20 (4:27)
                  3rd quarter (ATL) J.Norwood, 4 yard run (J.Elam kick) 21-20 (2:46)

                  4th quarter (ATL) J.Elam, 29 yard field goal 31-20 (2:35)
                  4th quarter (DET) D.Williams 20 yard pass from D.Culpepper (2PT) 31-28 (1:38)






                  Overview
                  Overall Stafford's performance was nothing spectacular but it was a solid one. He was very impressive delivering in the face of pressure, except for the one pick thrown to quarterback Curtis Lofton on a cornerback blitz. Other than that one error Stafford was able to drive the Lions down the field to get two scores on the board, giving the Lions a 20-7 lead after the first half.

                  Any Backus doubters should be silenced atleast for this week after he was able to shut out Abraham and protect Stafford's blind side. In fact the whole offensive line deserves a round of applause for not allowing a single sack on their rookie quarterback, lets see how long this lasts.

                  Daunte Culpeppers three interceptions; two thrown to safety Antoine Harris, leaving the door wide open for Atlanta.

                  Second string running back Jerious Norwood took full advantage of the opportunity rushing for over 130 yards and running in for two scores in the second half. Norwood wasn't only good on offense he also had an amazing 97 yard kick return for a touchdown in the 1st half. Norwood also had an amazing 64 yard run on his second carry of the second half, demonstrating his explosive playmaking ability once again.

                          Preseason Week 1
                          In Review
                          Thursday's Games

                          [NE] Sit Down Fred Taylor
                          Laurence Maroney (78ovr) had a break out preseason game rushing for over 100 yards. The Patriots brought in veteran running back Fred Taylor (82ovr) to turn up the heat on Maroney. Maroney got the start on Thursday and he made the best out of it, his performance in the 1st half made everyone even forget that Taylor was on the Patriot roster. Maroney looked like an incredible do it all back scoring four of the five Patriot touchdowns of the night. He not only ran good (22 attempts, 101 yards, 2TDs) but he showed off his soft hands catching a couple Tom Brady passes (4 rec, 31 yards, 1TD).

                          If Maroney keeps this up there should be no question who the runner is in New England, and Taylor can rest easy spending his final couple seasons on the bench for a winning team.


                          [BAL] Big Pay Off
                          The Baltimore Ravens had a couple big losses on Thursday. They lost staring defensive end Trevor Pryce (83ovr) and back up center Chris Chester (78ovr). Ravens did however gain back a big part of their defense; yes we are talking about cornerback Chris McAllister (86ovr) again.

                          McAllister and the Ravens were able to come to terms this preseason with a 1 year $7.87M contract. That is not a cheap price for an aging cornerback and it was the highest contract offered so far this preseason.

                          It's still the preseason but it looks to already be paying off as McAllister appears to be comfortable at home and in great playing form. McAllister intercepted a Jason Campbell (77ovr) pass this Thursday and took it the distance; a 62 yard return for a touchdown. Helping the Ravens win their first preseason game 17-3 against Washington.


                          [ARI] Comeback Kid
                          Quarterback Matt Leinhart (68ovr) excited fans this Thursday with one of his better performances to date. The 2006 10th overall pick has actually had rather disappointing performance in Arizona the last couple years and has been forced to play behind Super Bowl quarterback Kurt Warner (94ovr).

                          Leinhart came into the 2nd half and at one point was down by 11 points in the end of the third quarter. Leinhart rallied the troops and was able to mount a comeback in the 4th. He was able to connect with his favorite target; (WR) Early Doucet (64ovr), for two back to back touchdowns.

                          It was just a preseason game but it was an exciting moment for fans to see Leinhart have some success out on the field. Who knows where this team will be in a couple years. Kurt Warner is in his last couple years in the NFL at age 38, and the Cardinals have Leinhart for another 3 years under contract show Cardinal fans have every right to be excited at the progression of Leinhart.

                          [OAK] Back-Ups Shine in Oakland
                          Jamarcus Russell (72ovr) took the field this Thursday with the first team like many had expected. Also like many had expected he did not perform well along with many other first teamers. Russell was just average but the Raiders are expecting more than average from there quarterback they want wins. Darren McFadden (79ovr) also had a very poor performance with a lousy yard per carry average of 2.4. Not to mention that both wide receivers Darius Heyward Bey (76ovr) and Marvin Harrison (82ovr) were shut out as neither managed to haul in a measly catch.

                          However, when Oakland's second team entered the game they not only impressed they raised some eyebrows. Jeff Garcia (75ovr) threw for over 140 yards with 1 touchdown and looked confident all night against the Cowboys. Garcia's favorite target was none other than rookie Louis Murphy (71ovr). The fourth round selection was his favorite target and the sharpest looking out of all the Oakland receivers. Murphy had three catches for 77 yards, one of those was a 45 yard touchdown thrown by quarterback Jeff Garcia. Running back Justin Fargas (79ovr) also had a good game with over 50 yards on the ground and an average of 5.7 yards a carry. Oakland would rather start McFadden rather than have him sit another year under Fargas but if McFadden continues to play like this in the preseason they may not have a choice in the matter.
