Ace speaks

Ace Davis has some interesting thoughts on the game Saturday, not to mention first-hand experience since he was at the game. A few years ago I believed that one could watch the game just as well on tv at home as at the game, but it's not true.... you just don't see plays develop on television. TV gives no sense of how a secondary is really playing, how roll-outs, screens, short outs get stopped or become big plays. How routes off the ball change the outcomes of a play. Etc. Anyway, some of Ace's most interesting points...

That James Jackson and Jamel White looked good. I thought White was just getting back into the swing of things, but Jackson certainly made some nice runs. I agree whole-heartedly that skill positions will be a strength of this team, but it won't be a surprise.

"If Mason Unck makes the final roster, head for the hills." Hehe, couldn't have said it any better. I don't think there's any freaking way Unck makes the team though. At least I sure as hell hope not.

"C.J. Jones looks like a keeper." No doubt. The only way that dude gets cuts is if he is hurt or, for some strange reason, the team goes for more height if Andre Davis' injury lingers. But given Dennis Northcut's fragility, having a guy like Jones would seem to be invaluable.
