Greg C. said:packedhouse and tromadz: I'm not sure why you guys are dumping on Carroll after this game. Did you watch the game? Carroll started and I only saw him make one mistake, giving too big a cushion on a third and seven, and when I watched that play on tape, it looked like it may have been a miscommunication between him and another DB. I've been down on Carroll all through training camp, but in this game he looked pretty good to me. Why dump on him now? Please give examples from the game if you have any. Maybe there's something I missed.
CalifPacker: Could you please explain your comment, "He still got again against Buffalo"? What the heck is that supposed to mean?
Well, besides that 3rd down play, he did nothing else really too good. His tackling is suspect. He does more of a bumphit tackle than wrapping up. And for those who are now judging him on this one game...Am I supposed to believe everything I read previously, and reports I read daily, are not accurate? I would like nothing more than to believe he is good, and will be a solid #2 for years, but honestly, if he wasn't drafted so high last year, he wouldn't be on the team.
