So Vic had someone else write it and the put his name on it? If you had bothered to read the article in this particular section he is describing how the defense has awakened in the last six quarters. Phillip Gaines has not played in the last six quarters. What could that possibly have to do with my competency?

“Tre’Davious White is steadily establishing himself as one of the NFL’s better lock-down corners. Phillip Gaines more than held his own on the other side, and Micah Hyde and Jordan Poyer are back to the form that made them one of the league’s better safety combinations in 2017.” Correct me if I’m wrong, but Phillip Gaines hasn’t played since being injured in first game. Wasn’t it Ryan Lewis that “more than held his own”? So Vic wrote this incorrectly and editor missed it. I don’t think there is one person on this site that would have made this mistake. It’s not really a big deal, just sloppy and lazy.

I was there.

As I stated in another thread, I went all in on Newhouse.

Now what am I going to do with my Newhouse jersey?

What would indicate that these guys have a clue? If the plan was to draft QB of the future why trade Taylor? Taylor could have held the place and mentored Allen certainly as well as McCarron. At least sign someone that has started more than five games. Then they doubled down by deciding that going with Peterman and Allen was fine. Then they tripled down by starting Peterman. He is almost as much a rookie as Allen, two NFL starts. Now they are out of options. There are people on this site that would have done better.

McDermott is still thinking of starting Peterman. That tells you all you need.

I’m sorry I just can’t get excited about Peterman starting. He has what? Six more quarters of experience than Allen? We all know Allen is the future, what is he going to learn from watching Peterman? Is Peterman starting because the offensive line sucks? So what is he a sacrificial lamb? Whose fault is it the line sucks?

He’s thinking of Russ Francis, just has the wrong number 81 not 88.

By that logic why play Peterman or Allen? If the line is that bad just bring in guys that can take a punch. Or just run the ball every play.

If this competition were between Allen and a veteran, even a journeyman, I’d say maybe you let him sit for a while. However Peterman is not much of a veteran and has done nothing. The veteran teaching the rookie can not enter into this decision.

What’s Willie Totten doing?

Isn’t this the same argument that was used when the offense couldn’t score in preseason? But then the offense couldn’t score in the regular season either. I know preseason games are practice, but they have to be an indication of something.

No

Kind of harsh.

Johnson played for the Vikings twice, the London Monarchs, the Redskins, the Buccaneers and the Dallas Cowboys. He is the definition of Journey man. He also played for two different colleges. If you read my original comment it says Ben got the Steelers “close” in his rookie year.

Am I confused or are you? Ben may be going to HOF, but the point Ryan C883 was trying to make was great defenses have led some teams to SB championships. He points to Steelers getting close when Ben was a rookie. The Ravens and Bucs each won a SB with journey men QBs, Trent Dilfer and Brad Johnson respectively. Flacco was not the QB on that Raven team and what does Tyrod Taylor have to do with anything? He now is a Cleveland Brown.

Think it’s not so much a plan as it is a process.

Yeah Orton was great, remember that play when he slid three yards short of a first down and nobody was within ten yards of him.

Christopher Marlowe was an Elizabethan playwright.

I love you man.

Yous guys are prolly smarter than I thought.

No, he’s Karl Malone’s son.
