Williams should have received a penalty for trying to roll up on Sam's leg. Fuck, I hate that dirty ass team.

I remember this game all too well. In Rok's defense, he got called in cold, and clearly wasn't ready. Should he have been ready? Yes, but we know now that he lacks professionalism. He played much better in preseason action, but I questioned, along with a few other players, why they never got any action against 1's. Was that his fault? I hope that the coaches rethink that strategy for rookie players this year who they may have to use as starters.

You probably just secured his future at anything other than being a football player. :?!:

Good points. There's clearly not enough "film" to make any kind of a determination of his talent level. But part of the prerequisite of being talented is being dedicated. Nobody who ever got to the top of their game, did so by being a slacker.

Unless they were EXTREMELY talented.

Rok screwed his own pooch, he needn't look any further than the mirror in his refrigerator.

Wow watching that was brutal. He completely whiffed on his guy several times or he was too slow to get infront of him. I couldn't believe how completely lost he looked on most plays. He was literally standing there by himaelf just looking around with his arms out. Like X said it was way too obvious hw wasn't ready but wow. In his defense he did begin to look a little better at the end... well until the play where the defense faked the blitz and he was once again standing there looking lost. Than he got pulled down on his face to make it worse. WOW.

Ugh. Replacement refs... that was just an awful game all around.

Replacement refs and poor clock operators as well as bad last drive defense killed us. Should have won that game.

The replacement refs were even worse the next week against Washington.
