The rain has pretty much ruined everything about this game that I was interested in.

I don't think I've seen 90% of a crowd leave at halftime before.

Man, we have a nice crop of RB's. Michael Hill can just get cut tomorrow for all I care. It's going to be hard to keep Neal off this roster. The guy has shimmy in his hips, vision, and power. I like this kid.

Neal is a goofy looking runner but it seems to be effective. He's kind of upright and seems to be a short-stepper, which makes him look slow, but he can really accelerate too. Interesting guy to keep around if some of the depth thins.

It is tough to take too much away from a game like this, but Harper again had two very bad drops to go along with an awful drop on a wide open deep ball on family night. If that type of lack of concentration is a normal thing for him during practice, I can see why he has already been cut by two teams despite his impressive physical profile and his resume.

So even though its just pre season we learn that.

MM is still a bone head. Going for that 2 point conversation and throwing deep ont he last drive on 4th and one prove that.

Adams returns like Rossatron

When the game is on the line Capers defense will lose it. Doesn't matter who is out there.

We lost. We suck.

0-16. Adams the worst player in the history of the NFL.

I saw highlights from the NFL app so that's all I really have to go by, but how did HaHa look? I saw him come up and make 2 tackles on Battle and Sankey after they caught the ball and beat the LB (shocker), even though it was down the field I thought he showed good closing speed to come up and stop the ball carrier as soon as he could get there. I read he also whiffed on a tackle trying to bring down McCluster, how bad did that look? And I'm torn on his pass breakup, he got beat by a quick head fake which is alarming but showed amazing close out speed and awareness to fully recover and jar the ball loose without ever seeing it land. The 2 tackles and pass defend were the only "highlights" of him they showed... How did he look overall?

I can't lie, seeing him out there in that #21 jersey gave me some chills thinking about how great Chuck was during his time here. I sure hope HCD can someday turn into a similar version of Chuck sooner rather than later. That would be so huge.

Sounds like I didn't miss much. I was at a wedding all day Saturday. Glad Starks looked good. I'm thinking we may have the best 1-2 punch at RB in the league. Starks is such an awesome complement to Lacy. I really hope the offense can stay healthy this year.

That drive with Starks was a ton of fun to watch. Titans just couldn't stop him. After that I had the game on but didn't pay as much attention. Going to be a better test for the backs/OL this week going against that Rams defensive line.

Stock Up: Tolzien, Rajion Neal

Stock Down: Chris Harper, Michael Hill

- I could see us keeping both Flynn and Tolzien on the active roster, as I'm not sure if Tolzien is still eligible for the PS.

- Harper showed why he was a quick cut after being drafted in the 4th round by Seattle. He's got all the talent, he just can't catch the football. No room in this offense for a receiver with bad hands.

- Michael Hill just kinda sucks.

- I hope Neal makes the team. He's got good vision and burst.

i drove down for the game but didn't make it in until halftime due to flooding and traffic right around the stadium.

they might as well have played this game on ice skates, but no one of consequence got hurt, so that was probably the most important outcome.

but the packers probably still have one of the youngest starting rosters in the league, so essentially losing a whole game of preseason reps hinders development a bit.

and obviously packers fans still love to playfully flex their strength in numbers muscles in opposing stadiums.

-Not worried about Adams muffed punt as that was a type of rain he probably won't see again. If he does, then tell him to let the punt go next time.

-Those receivers dropped A LOT of wide open balls even when it wasn't raining. Tolzien had great ball placement the entire game, even the 2 point conversion, and they let him down.

-Ha-HA looked decent. The only play I saw him give up technically should have been a sack. Whitehurst seemed like he had all day back in the pocket for that play and no safety can cover that long.

-Our run blocking looks very good as the Titans have a pretty good run defense.

- Can't wait to see our offense against the Seahawks if the refs really plan to call defensive pass interference as often as they say.

He's not eligible
