[QUOTE="TJV, post: 377569, member: 4300"] [FONT=Verdana]It’s foolish to make too much of pre season games, particularly the first one. That’s even more true now because of the lockout. With that in mind IMO the players who did themselves well were Cobb, Anthony Levine who is battling for the number 4 safety spot, and CB Josh Gordy. I thought Morgan Burnett got off to a very good start. In spite of what Rich Gannon (who is not a good analyst IMO) said, the knock on Burnett has been he is not physical enough. He’s more athletic and covers better than Peprah, but he needed to be more physical vs. the run and he did so. [/FONT] [FONT=Verdana] [/FONT] [FONT=Verdana]I watched three players closely.
