Week 3 vs. Cleveland

This week was exciting! My mom and dad, aunt and uncle and friends came to watch the game. Unfortunately, Dawan Landry was hurt during the game. He had a "spinal concussion" but is now able to move all his extremities and is expected back in possibly 4 weeks. After seeing what Kevin Everett went through last year, it is a relief that Dawan is okay.

Jim filled in for him on the defense and was also filling in for Figurs at Kick and Punt Returns. It was really fun to watch Jim play!

Week 2 @ Houston

Hurricane Ike made this a difficult week. Our thoughts and prayers go out to all who were affected by the storm. We will play at Houston on November 9th, what was originally Baltimore's bye week.

On S Jim Leonhard: “Jim is a good football player. The interesting thing about Jim is that sometimes guys get stereotyped. He’s a solid football player. You say, ‘Well, he can’t make plays.’ Well, all he’s been doing all preseason is making plays. He makes plays all over the field. He’s been a pleasant surprise. We thought he was going to be a good player, but he’s probably been better than we anticipated.”

Preseason Week 4 vs. Atlanta

Jim started another preseason game! It was a loss, but we found out on Saturday that Jim made it through the final cut and is on the team for the season!
