Cards Raiders 2012 Pre-season Game Thread

[az1965]

Let's see how long the starters play and how Kolb does... Go Cards!

 

[desertdawg]

But is this the official game thread???

 

[az1965]

Yes!

Authentic!

 

[Darkside]

Seconded. Let's get this thing rolling (in 45 very long minutes).

I'm hoping we see more of the 2 TE formations tonight, even when the backs are in the "I". We should also do a over/under for how many shotgun plays Whiz and co will run. I'm predicting 12 shotgun plays, 2 will probably be handoffs.

I think Kolb and Leinart should fight at mid-field before the game starts.

Not that i like kolb more than leinart but i bet Kolb would go Andre Johnson on his azzz. Hes a Texas boy..

Speaking of two TE's, which I totally agree with you on, I think it's one of our best formations, but speaking of which, has anyone been impressed at all with Heap so far? I was high on him when we got him, and he got hurt (again) so I gave him a pass, but honestly, he should outshine these kids just on experience alone by accident. Tony Gonzales tore dudes up other night just while jogging in place.

Kolb would punch Leinart in the collarbone, breaking it, and before he fell Leinart would make a mean face and Kolb would resort to the fetal position. Or run to the right.

lol rat run to the right. Hes like Zoolander, he cant turn to the left.

Whiz needs to treat Kolb like Ricky Bobby and put a cougar on the right side of the field during practice.

Holding my breath to see if Kolb makes it thru the pre-game handshake...

 

[desertdawg]

It was good to see Bethel get some love on the pre-game. Special teams appears to be his ticket in, I think he can also join the defense later if he keeps it up.

WTF!!!! Why are we getting the Raiders broadcast on Pre Season Live. All the other games have had the home team's broadcast.

The NFL sucks.

great first series by the D.

Kolb's got GREAT field position. let's see if he can do anything about it.

 

[Mainstreet]

I like how Petersen looks for his blocks.

 

[crisper57]

Well the D showed up to play.

 

[Phrazbit]

Kolb gets good field position. Get out there and show a pulse!
