You know, the PBU's were what I saw a good bit of Wednesday.
The secondary, the whole defense looked fast and very competitive.
Did anyone get the sense that ol' Wade wasn't holding back anything?
Plenty of pressure and the DB's were pressed up on the pass catchers.

It believe it was either you or @JackDRams that showed me how to post these last season. Filling in when someone else couldn't do it.
It seems we had a lot more tweets last season

Yeah, we did. The practice time, although I don't remember what it was last year, is just really bad for anyone trying to go from L.A., but Irvine is also busy at that time for folks from the O.C. They don't schedule them for us though. Also, hardly any local reporters, reporting, let alone national, as we had much more last year.
The L.A. Times girl sent out one tweet, and she's covering the Rams.

I think Hig needs to get up and get that ball. If he gets contacted in the air he would draw that flag. Too good of a ball for him not to try and turn and high point that.

It is so refreshing to hear that the DB's were pressed up against the pass catchers. It would frustrate me so much under Fisher where the DB's would be playing 5-10 yards behind the line of scrimmage when the opposing team would only need a few yards for a 1st down.

That's a nice pass and a nice defensive play. Would like to see Higbee climb the ladder and win the jump ball.

Higbee showed too early. But yes, should have known where he was on the field and jumped up earlier to square up for the pass.

You're not often expecting the WR/TE to get separation on a fade. They generally only do that if they win big off the LOS. You're looking to win in one of two ways when that doesn't happen (which is most of the time):
1. QB ball placement; and/or
2. WR/TE size advantage/ball-tracking advantage
Higbee is a big guy with good hands. You expect him to go up and get it there.
