Bill, I agree with some of this, Brown looked okay at center. I think he can and will play guard, he is an excellent run blocker, his pass pro, not so much, at least last year and the year before when he filled in. I do and have thought they need to draft a bit more @ Olinemen. What we have now is a couple of high round picks (C, LT and RG 1st 2nd and 3rd) and then scrubs; most good teams have more invested (draft and money) than that. Wood is the best on the line but has the injury thing, Glenn seems decent. Urbick is sort of middling but has really improved especially when you consider both sides of him last year went down with injuries. I don't think Gailey's scheme was so great at hiding the line's deficiencies, because Fitz had time a lot but still effed the passes up (IDK could he not see over Brown?). Other times there were weaknesses (RT would have been drafted if I was GM this year, maybe Sanders will step up but both we have now seem to have injuries too much too). I hope that Maroone can coach them up but SU's line was far from great, his line coach has a very impressive resume (as well as his at that position). I think talent is a key and do worry we are a bit short on it. All that said, we need 5 healthy guys to play together for a significant length of time to make this work. They need to find and keep those guys, so they can really "gel". Andy was good but his price was just more than the team wanted and IMO he also wanted out. Not really much you can do about that. Final cuts will come and there will be some okay guys out there. If Marrone is really unhappy, I can see him bringing someone else in . Moore IMO would be a waste of resources (development time and $), I hope they stay away from that for the sake of the future. I think the battle is Brown and Caldwell and that may even be okay. The big Lebowski can back up Wood, BTW I do think Rienhart was decent but had question marks for health. He was more replaceable than Andy which is what they did.. One last thing I hope they run the hell out of the ball this year (easier on the Oline) and start EJ, Kolb has deer in the headlights) eyes and reminds me of Trent. Use the run and win with it this year, it is where the talent on the team is most developed already.Also the D is untested (and just horrible last few years) and should get rested. If they really go no huddle at least a run game would help that. Will also help EJ develop at a better pace.

Wow TGreg you sound me like on here 2 seasons ago. Until Chan/Fitz totally malfunctioned. I like some stuff I am hearing this year but living through the past..... I will wait and see but I am a bit more optimistic and like the direction.

Didn't Chan play this game with Andy last year?

Nice! can I use this as my avatar?

Sound like a sex ploy, I likey!

My granddad got married when he was 45 to a 23 year old and they had 9 kids, he was born in the 1890s and lived 91 years (his wife died at 65, I think, before him in any case) he was a carpenter (house builder) and I remember him putting a roof on my parents house when he was almost 90 (3 floor house) carrying shingles on his shoulder like it was nothing.I am hoping I have his genes but don't want anymore kids to be honest. My Dad died in his early 60s and my Mom in her early 70s. Kids do stress you out (they had 5 and my Dad was a stressed person), I felt young (and looked pretty young my whole life) well into my 40s but time is definitely catching up, we will see.

Agreed

okay but I do realize I am getting old. Having the kid is an unbelievable positive/one of the best experiences!

Her no, hard to believe too slutty, except for a few heifers there are some there though that Oh yea!

Oooooh that is almost like a low blow. Ouch!

Thanks! and great job!

Yeah the hard part is really I am more granddad age (He only has one grand parent, which is a bit of a bummer) and he will eventually notice, I hope I am more secure! Because this was a surprise and I am not very much so right now! My Mom and Dad were older too but had 4 other kids before me. At least, my GF is in her early 30s still. I plan on doing my best, hope it is good enough and I last. I should have done it when I was younger w/o a doubt! I already can be a grumpy old man at times. Well Have sort been collecting, fixing up and selling 50cc scooters the last few years but not sure that counts. Was more a teen obsession that I like as a hobby now. 31 is young enough if I can do it now. Best of luck to you. It is an amazing journey.

X2?

That is your own conclusion and opinion. What is your point posting this old news? Mario is injured? The team could save some money?? WTF are you Ralph? HE HAD A TEN SACK YEAR ON THE CRAPPIEST D WE PRETTY MUCH HAVE EVER SEEN IN BILLS HISTORY. HE WAS ALSO INJURED AND THE D WAS SO TRANSPARENT A ROOKIE QB COULD SEE RIGHT THROUGH IT LIKE CLEAN WATER. I hate this agenda as you might guess and you sir are a troll i.e. "Oh no Byrd is missing OTAS!". Which BTW incase you haven't figured it out makes it sound like you value Byrd over Mario, so what is it you want to sign Byrd and cut Mario?

I'd rather he was healthy but missing a bit of TC to get there, is fine. We will see some other players and if they can step up this way and if he is his usual self he will miss some time for one reason or another anyway. At least his backups get some reps, this is a good thing. I don't see why everyone has to be all over the guy for any injury. I do understand he is well paid but so what? One thing has nothing to do with the other IMO.

It would need to be lower or no one would use it

So what? you saw it too? Or just guessing?

no but if she pulled me over I'd seriously think about it to get out of the ticket.

No, and ah wait that's political.....

One shiny dowel! uh huh.

That is only 20 years from now for me, I have a 1 year 4 month old son, I hope I make it that long! ****! I never used to think like that! That's funny (and yes they did), really the 40s are tough, male menopause just made me horny all the time.Although it was fun too (I was single at the time) and I didn't even buy a fast car again.

"Stop b____ and f___ adapt"

You should have seen Fergy, he would hang his head for 1/2 a game. Good passer too, never understood his thinking. BTW thanks everyone who writes these reports!
