[Shane]

May as well have a thread and talk about it since it’s so hyped…

 

[Shane]

One really bad throw. One good throw. 3 and out to start.

 

[Shane]

Bryce Young looked like crap on first drive

 

[Shane]

Nice scramble for a first

 

[Shane]

Terrible overthrow with plenty of time there

Followed that with a nice throw over the middle.

No points on second drive TO on downs almost takes a loooooong sack.

McMillan from U of A just made an immediate impact on a great catch.

Yea that was a nice throw and catch

 

[Russ Smith]

man you guys are obsessed with this kid!

I just saw the 4 down one. 2nd down he misread the blitz but got away, had a guy wide open for a first but overthrew it on the run. Then a nice throw well placed on 3rd down. 4th down was a jailbreak passrush not much he could have done there

 

[Shane]

Nice TD drive by Carolina

McMillan from U of A just made an immediate impact on a great catch.

He proceeded to get wide open by NFL standards on an easy touchdown and didn't turn and look for the ball. oof.

 

[BullheadCardFan]

TD pass in the endzone

Nice throw

 

[Shane]

Nice TD pass after the Carolina TO squeezed it in that window

 

[BullheadCardFan]

Another nice pass with some zip on it

He does have an arm

 

[Russ Smith]

That throw out of the endzone on 3rd and long was a dart. Maybe the best throw I've ever seen him make

 

[BullheadCardFan]

Nice throw under pressure

Great one handed catch by the WR

Sanders with some up and down plays

The arm is there, he need to put it all together

I think he has an average NFL arm his issue has always been he holds the ball too long and then gets hit. Colorado didn't have a great OL but a big reason he got sacked so much is he holds the ball. You can see it even in this game, he's made some nice throws against the blitz getting it out quickly but when the pressure isn't coming directly at him where he can see it, he's really bad at reacting and he usually runs backwards

 

[Russ Smith]

he's played pretty well so far.

 

[SECTION 11]

Just watched the highlights. The two TD throws were fantastic.

 

[WisconsinCard]

Kid looked pretty good last night.

 

[Garthshort]

A tremendous first game. Especially considering his lack of reps in TC and all the media attention. Credit where credit is due.

 

[Russ Smith]

Skip Bayless said Sanders proved he should have been the #1 overall pick. I was impressed he looked much better than I expected he would but I wouldn't say he should have been the first overall pick I think the off field stuff was justifiably held against him.

The 2nd TD was outstanding a perfect throw in a tight window. What made the first TD good was he didn't try to squeeze the ball in to #16 who immediately looks open but has a defender basically hiding there baiting Sanders into throwing it. Sanders looked that way then went back to the left to Davis for the TD.that was a very smart decision it was tempting to force it in to 16 but that probably gets knocked away if not picked.

I don't think limited reps is really accurate he's been getting lots of rep in camp, I know because they keep sending me highlights of him in camp. Flacco and Pickett are ahead of him but Pickett has been out with a hamstring injury for 2 weeks so Gabriel and Sanders got his reps. Also Flacco has been getting rested because he's old, he gets 1st team reps but not as much as a normal starter would because he's 40.

But absolutely Sanders looked really good in his first game.

Sanders will be fine.

The Browns won’t be because they are a poverty franchise.
