Head of PR for the Skins last night:

"21-0? I guess the dream team is asleep lol. We are not scared."

Skins go 80 yards in 6 plays and Hightower scores a TD in the 1st drive vs the Colt

Becks performance is surprising

 

[YankeeVol]

Kerrigan with a sack as well

 

[YankeeVol]

Helu finished with 101 yards on 14 carries

What are the general thoughts regarding who ends up starting at RB?

What are the general thoughts regarding who ends up starting at RB?

Hightower
Torain
Helu
Royster


Torain only gets 2nd Team because of enormous durability concerns. I don't think the coaches expect him to make the whole season so I think he'll be a conditional player instead of a constant #1.


Beck, I'd say, definitely has the starting spot. Grossman, though, looks like a serviceable backup.

Hightower
Helu
Torain

I bet Arizona wishes they had kept Hightower

Skins D ranks #1 in preseason by so far only allowing 168 yards per game

[YankeeVol]

I think the D will be quite improved from last year

 

[VolsNSkinsFan]

Mike & Mike both have the Skins at 5-11 this year while Liam's Mom has the Skins at 12-4.

Liam's Mom predicted the Mens NCAA Basketball tourney finals and almost picked the score, so she has a great track record. Lets hope she is right.

IMO the Skins win a minimum of 6 games

 

[YankeeVol]

7-9 is my prediction

 

[VolsNSkinsFan]

Skins looking good on ESPN. Up 14-0 on the Ravens. Hightower 37 yd TD and Hall with a pick six

Theismann and Gruden think Beck ends up starting

[YankeeVol]

Grossman was pretty good last night. Beck threw a horrible INT

 

[005]

Actually a nice stable of running backs y'all have there

 

[YankeeVol]

Looks like 2nd round pick J. Jenkins is out for the year with a torn ACL

 

[TrueOrange]

So apparently Hightower was "all but named starter" by Shanahan

[YankeeVol]

Not surprising, I figured he'd be the starter anyway.
