I'm with Barrett on his comments about the penalty on DJ. It was more of a case of Welker's head running into DJ's forearm/shoulder that vice versa. And taking nothing away from Manning, but many front-line Texan defenders were not in the game when he ran up those 2 quick TDs at the end of the half. I believe the only starter not seeing any action so far this preseason is CB JJoe, who like Cushing seems to be injured far more than he is healthy and participating.
When Savage throws the ball it just gets to its destination much quicker than passes by the other 2 QBs and his composure and accuracy were solid last night. His brief time in the game was very impressive and makes the departure of Keenum seem more likely now, whether we make Savage the backup or they pick up another QB who's released when teams cut the final group of players to reach the 53-man rosters.
