      Yea. He stood out, and not in a good way.

        He looks like he belongs. Depth at OLB is going to be strong this year.
        Hmm. Didn't think Sawyer did much. At least considering the hype.

          He was very active, flying around, made a couple run tackles.....but the knock on him coming out of OS is he is a very smart well rounded player good at everything, but no great at anything because he doesnt have the superstar "athletic" traits like a TJ Watt.......which is what i saw with him being just a tad late to make splash plays all night......of course it's just 1 preseason game.

          By the way, know who led the D in tackles ? Mark Brueners son

            Breuner had a very nice game.

              Agreed.

              I would have cut him in the locker room before he went home.

                  Didn't we sit like half the starters (and even some backups like Herbig)?

                    More than half, but these guys are fighting for a roster spot at best. They looked slow and confused to me.
                    Help me find my post proving I am a Yinzer!

                    I will tip my hat to Tomlin if he has a winning record and the team makes the play-offs in the upcoming season.

                      Oh sure, he will probably make the team because of that cutesy father-son thing.

                          No disrespect but I think your evaluation on the defense is a bit unrealistic.

                          While we want to see splash plays, I also think coaches want to see units in different circumstances to get evaluations.

                          Beanie Bishop made a great tackle on 3rd and 4 on Travis Hunter that would normally be a 3 and out.

                          I think we played fine on defense and we only had 2 starters. You make it sound like we were giving up huge gains and chasing guys all over the field.

                            Dude, these people were bashing Beanie Bishop while the commentators were praising his play.

                            Folks have playoff expectations while watching the preseason.

                            The D was fine.

                              I'd like to see them get off the field every now and then. I understand these were mostly back-ups, but this is there time to shine, if they want a roster spot.

                                I’m leaning towards the idea that the coaches want to see reps and aren’t really concerned with 3 and outs.

                                I also appreciate how coaches are going for it on 4th down early because they know their units may only play one series so it gives them a chance to see them in “pressure” situations.
