what’s neat about Edwards is he has some of the finesse parts of his game. I know JB almost died when he took that little transition pull-up today, but he can make that. I’d love to see him put on weight and get more PT. I think he could be a very well-rounder center. Make some 10-footers; some baby hooks; develop a little post-up game. You can tell the raw talent is there.

i would be curious to hear what he says in his presser about it, though the beat reporters don’t usually push him much. As best as I can tell, it was either he was worried about Edwards’ conditioning or worried about Edwards picking up fouls, and so felt he had to pace and protect him. I suspect it was more of the latter, as Edwards does have the tendency to pick up fouls in spades. I do think that really was the game. I also think that Our offense was just poor. It was a blood bath out there, and so everything was contested or fouled. lot to be excited about for next year about Edwards, and Braswell. Is Sidibe coming back too? The zone will be a lot more effective with those three guys in the rotation.

Houston defenders foul every time on every play. They hand check and body check and play ultra aggressively and out of control on the glass. That’s why they are so good. But that’s also why at the end of their games, every guy on their team has like 4 fouls.

The “Up” montage is probably the greatest movie montage of all time. So perfectly done.

Stevie Thompson is an assistant on Oregon state and his son, Ethan, is their leading scorer? How did I not know they? Stevie is in my top-5 favorite Syracuse bball Players of all time!

There are some “dust in my eye” moments every time I watch Castaway (which is a movie I will stop and watch any time I see it in TV).

my girl is a tear jerker— both the movie and the book.

I remember Rian Lindell saying this about kickers and the same holds true about punters. There are only 32 spots in the league. So most guys aren’t rolling the dice and bouncing from team to team if they don’t have to. There’s a lot more risk in testing the market, and Bojo is probably finding this out the hard way.

one thing KC and Buffalo fans can mostly agree on is what a waste of Watkins was. That the chiefs didn’t even seem to offer him the same pretty measly deal that Baltimore gave him shows Me too it wasn’t really about money. To your point, a rookie or bargain vet at the WR 2 spot is perfect. You already have Kelce and Hill as basically your 1/2, Hardiman for a few other targets, and can you use your backs well in the passing game. Doesn’t make a lot of sense to invest more money in your O skill players.

Agreed re Quincy. All I am reading is how Houston’s “best offense is a missed shot.” Quincy is going to have to kill it down low for us to win this game. Everyone really needs to crash the boards. I am really hoping Griffin has a breakout performance. He’s due.

same here— had no idea she was still alive. Lots of classic books. I distinctly remember “Dear Mr. Henshaw” as a kid— that book stuck with me for years. Been cool reading her Ramona books now with my 9-year old.

I said this earlier, but a pretty huge fall from grace. This contract value basically means that the chiefs would rather have anyone else as their WR3 than Watkins. It’s not even the money. He eats up a roster space and often an active game day spot, as when he does play, he is often hobbled/less than 100%.
-
it’s worse than that. He didn’t even make it that far. Slipped on his way to sign the contract and out (week to week).
-
What has to hurt about this too for him is that the chiefs easily could have re-signed him to that sort of contract, but didn’t even want him as their #2 or #3.
-
Seems about right. Since they don’t throw the ball, they won’t miss him much when he is on IR.

It’s nice to not give a ***** this time of year
Miyagi-Do Karate replied to Virgil's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Agreed. Such a weird feeling. How about that nervous/scared feeling when you know you are losing all your best players in free agency? -
Bills sign KR/PR Brandon Powell
Miyagi-Do Karate replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
very happy about this. Had a feeling they wouldn't go into the season with McKittrick as the lead return guy. Powell seems decent and sure-handed. Probably can fill in in a pinch a little better at receiver than Roberts. I also think he use to get some snaps at RB in college. -
you know the team better than me. But Terrell Pryor was arguably the most hyped future NFL superstar recruit out of High School in my lifetime. He had some great passing seasons at Ohio State too under Tressell. And even guys like JT Barrett had 3,000 yard passing seasons. I do think back when those earlier dual threat players were coming out (Smith and Pryor), the NFL was much different. If Pryor came out today, you wonder if he would have been developed into a very good/great NFL QB.

Eagles trade pick 6 to Dolphins
Miyagi-Do Karate replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I find it so weird that NFL teams seem to place so little value on 1st round picks. Teams just giving them away like nothing. -
Fair point. But you have to admit that it is awfully weird that one very elite school has had so many NFL misses. It's not like these other schools recruit as well or have as highly touted and highly performing college QB's as Ohio State. Haskens, Fields, Troy Smith, Cardale Jones, Pryor, Braxton Miller, even Kenny Guiton. These guys all kill it in college, and then many of them are rated as very good pro prospects, and none panned out. It's very odd to me.
