Nice drive. If Brown can stay healthy, him and Slaton will be a very solid RB combination.
We watched the tragedy unfold. We did as we were told, we bought and sold. It was the greatest show on Earth...but then it was over.

Quick thoughts about the team...

Orvylowski (?), Brown, & Okam really looked good. That Jenkins kid looked good too, and if Jacoby doesnt get his act together he might be replaced.

I think the best part of that game was the fact that Chris Brown carried the ball so well (other than that one fumble). If he can stay healthy this team has a chance to really do something in the redzone with Vonta Leach blocking

I thought Orlovsky looked OK at times, but definitely didn't seem very sharp to me. I chalk that up to being on a new team though, and with more playing time I think he'll be a solid backup.

I felt that Brown would be the perfect backup RB for us a year ago, he just hasn't been healthy. If he can, as I said I think him and Slaton can be a very formidable combination at RB(I also like what I saw from Moats).

Barwin impressed me as well. I can't help but love his story and I like watching him play.

The highlight of that game was the one-handed grab by Casey though, that was pretty nice. He looks good as well, a versatile player who can provide depth at several positions.

I'm anxious to see how Cushing performs when he finally gets on the field.

BUNNEH EDIT: Also the first real test will come this week against NO. I'm very much looking forward to seeing how our defense performs against a legitimate offense(no offense KC).
