I hope there isn't anything interesting in this game. If the Lakers go take care of business, then this should be a running clock. If they let the crowd, the chippiness, etc. get to them this could be much closer. I just don't want to see any players baited into something that might cost them the next couple of games.

I guess the most interesting thing in this game will be to see how well the Laker defense contains Carr. This is likely the best true running back we've seen to date. I also want to see more work on the passing game, even if it's little screen passes, bubbles and such. We definitely need to utilize Nick Coffey a bit more on offense. He could be a great 3rd and medium to long receiver.

I know who cares what we think, but I would also like to sees Smiddy in at quarterback more. I have nothing against Ellis, but I feel Ellis on the edge gives the defense more to be concerned about which opens up the inside more. Smiddy is a very good quarterback that just needs more reps and confidence. Seems to me when Ellis is on the edge that things open up more for us. Smiddy had a really good drive in that game vs. Rock.
