That said, B.J. Daniels was a toe-trip on the turf away from breaking one too. Some of that has to be attributed to a horrendous outing by Denver's special teams unit. For as bad as our offensive line was in that game, their special teams were worse. When we received a kick or punt, they gave up huge yardage. When they received, they fumbled. Repeatedly.
I'm looking forward to next weeks game and seeing just how much of that was Lockett's awesomeness and how much was Denver's suckatude.
Great point. We need to keep things in perspective. This was just a preseason game and the first preseason game at that. I seem to remember Jermaine Kearse returning a KO for a touchdown in a preseason game, too.
Nevertheless, Lockett looks like the real deal. He's explosive, turns on a dime, very elusive. He's going to make it very difficult for me to get my job done quickly enough before the end of the commercial.
