My Greg Jennings Blog

The offseason is fortunately almost more. Players who have had have been exceptional begins. We have heard of them. I am not going to write, however, another article talking about how Carson Palmer tore the field in his first game back from injury, how T.J. Houshmandzadeh was captures everything anywhere near him, Tom Brady Washington showed why he is Tom Brady and how Drew Bledsoe was impressive for the holding of a potential problem Tony Romo. I'm sick of hear these performances, especially when there has been another, less announced the players that have become impressive exhibitions in the endless string of games we have to endure before it starts the actual season.

Before we get too excited, we must really look how much the preseason really matters. The answer is: not so much. Some computers do not take seriously the preseason and not play their starters - the Steelers are so worried about their 0-3 pre-season Ben Roethlisberger and Willie Parker still are not playing in the game the last computer registry. Big Ben has just shed 36 passes pre-season all. On the other hand, Oakland is 4-0. If you believe the record of the Raiders makes them the best team in the League, and they will then have a rude awakening when the season starts.When you import the offseason, however, is that we get to see how young or marginal players react when arrive some time game real.Con that in mind, here are some of the players who are not making headlines that have been impressive preseason:

Michael Turner, RB, San Diego-LaDanian Tomlinson is supposed to be running back that everyone is talking about, but apparently nobody told this third player of the year in Northern Illinois has just 439 yards in his carrera.Turner shippers had become 151 yards, for an average of 6.6 yards per carry, striking only 23 carries and scored three times.Obviously he will not start during the season, but the Chargers fans have to feel better about perspectives, if something were to happen to your star back.

Matt Cassel, QB, New England-Turner, Cassel will see very little time behind a boot superstar, but the former USC backup has demonstrated that you can rely on if he has to be. Passed 484 yards, thus completing 60 per cent of its 54 pass, connected to three touchdowns with no picks and is at the top of the League in passer rating. He has been as prepared and the control that you would expect from a player who really even not played at the University.

Matt Leinart, QB, Arizona-Leinart has looked as good as Cassel, your backup in USC.Es put impressive numbers in two games (19-for-32, 189 yards and a TD), which is particularly impressive given that lost a good part of the camp, because he was Extremoduro on his contract.He has understood much better guide to the father soon to be apparently grabs the birth control. He's been prepared and not panic under pressure. Kurt Warner will start the season as the No. 1, but my bet is that Leinart will assume this position before that year.

DeAngelo Williams, RB, Carolina- In a game of Panthers fans fell in love their draft pick. Its nine carries had yielded 41 yards against the Dolphins for a decent average over 4.5 yards, but is not speaking for that. Sent a kickoff of Miami in the line of two yards, had ill cut to half and execution when the stopped endzone.Nobody had come close to play le.Williams not had shown much spark before that time, but everything was pardoned and fever Williams was born.

Marques Colston, WR, New Orleans- Colston was drafted Hofstra choice 252a, only four points before the end of the project. Hopes, obviously were not high for him, but he has been incredible for camp and it is likely that has now won the starting spot which opened when the team traded ESPN.com Stallworth away. The Saints should not be jettisoned its receiving higher from year if they had no confidence in Colston.

Greg Jennings, WR, Green Bay- The Packers are a bright spot. Second position overall Western Michigan round has led the NFL in receptions in the offseason with 11 catches for 239 yards and a TD. That average of 21.7 yards is not shabby at all. To add to its versatility and attractive, made good in his only attempt to return kicks, carried out for 27 yards of cattle hard. It was so good that coaches are openly discussing their ability to replace the disappointing Charles Woodson on returns.

J.P. Losman, QB, Buffalo-Losman has taken a lot of abuse in the press, and lost his job to Kelly Holcomb last year.However, it has been impressive win again this offseason.It has spent 37-of-57 to 462 yards and two touchdowns.He has showed two elections, but that is less of a concern now would have been last year.It has shown an unexpected amount of poise and maturity, standing in his pocket and looking for a receiver feasible rather than panic and scrambling as did it in the past.Also discovered precision that didn't tenía.Él has fled with a career quarterback who many not expect him ganar.Su team will be terrible, but will not be his fault almost as much as it was last year.

Randy Moss, WR, Oakland - how strange is that almost no one is talking about Moss these days? he may have run over someone with his new car only to copy some headlines away from T.O.Su equipment is destined to be terrible, but he quietly been well studied in the pretemporada.En computer game against Detroit, Moss caught three passes for 102 yards and two touchdowns.La field marshal situation is a mess (Jeff George!), but Moss is showing the potential for career in surprising route has been envelope before a couple of years slugs (for him).
