  1. Well, that's really disturbing. I guess you have to remember that they get at least part of their moral compass from their parents. If Art is capable of turning a blind eye to this much, it shouldn't be a shock to see his kids being willing to do likewise. I've cut members of my family out over less than this. I can't fathom having that kind of loyalty to someone.
  2. It's absolutely abhorrent and it goes way further than just Briles. Clean out the entire athletic department and let them start over. Nuking the program is pointless. I'm not sure what to make of Briles as a man. As far as I can find, he has 2 daughters and a granddaughter. Explaining all of this to them should be the worst part of this entire process.
  3. That game against NDSU in the playoffs is straight garbage. Could've had 3 Pick-6's in 28 minutes of play. The kid has only played 7 games (broke his leg vs Liberty mid-season) so I'll hold off complete judgement until he's had a better run of games but he's not the next Wentz.
  4. Today is the best day of Rodak's life. Gets paid to talk **** about the Bills and folks love him for it.
  5. Super Bowl baby!!!! http://metro.co.uk/2014/07/12/north-korea-media-tells-country-that-its-team-has-reached-world-cup-final-4796033/
  6. Russ Brandon is just Putin in a well-maintained wig? Interesting.
  7. Freeney will work out for the Bengals. http://espn.go.com/blog/cincinnati-bengals/post/_/id/22766/dwight-freeney-to-bengals-source-says-team-to-work-out-edge-rusher
  8. I think Freeney makes a lot of sense. We're not looking for a guy for the base defense snaps, Manny can cover those 30-40% of snaps easily. Where Freeney makes an impact is in sub packages. Manny can't get after the QB, the rest of the roster options haven't got any pass rush production to speak of in the NFL. Even if it's only a 4-5 week rental in terms of impact, it's worth it. After Shaq comes back, Freeney can still rotate in for certain packages and personnel groups for the rest of 2016.
  9. Jeremy Sprinkle. Was Hunter Henry's backup at Arkansas last year, better player.
  10. His middle name is McXavier. I'm sold.
  11. PFF grades (entire career): Screen blocking: 0.5 Run blocking: -0.5 Pass blocking: -0.4 0.0 is average so maybe? Overall grade is -31.3, pass grade is -35.3
  12. Well played. Washington took a $2m dead cap hit to get rid of him because his hands were so inconsistent. Also never had a positive season grade from PFF.
  13. It's a numbers game. Bryce Petty saying that he can now identify defensive fronts on Madden as a 2nd year NFL QB is terrifying. Kids should know this stuff when they're in high school. Some teams just ask their QB to count. If you've got a 5 man box, run. If you've got a 6 man box, it's about picking your numbers/matchup advantage on the perimeter. There's not much nuance at the heart of it.
  14. Do not take the Lord's name in vain. Xavier Omon was a beast!
  15. If you want a case of the giggles, watch this with the mindset that he's getting 1st round hype. http://draftbreakdown.com/video/mitch-leidner-vs-tcu-2015/
  16. I have the exact same sentiments when it comes to Richie. He knew he screwed up, paid for it with a year of his career. Whatever it was that straightened him out (I'm assuming medication and psychological help, although I doubt Richie would publically admit it), definitely seemed to have an impact. On the field it's had an impact. The old Richie would have reacted when guys tried to goad him with shots after the whistle. To some degree, it seems he's changed. Hardy ended up suspended with full pay. Was found guilty in a court of law of serious charges but got off because he paid his victim off. Walked right back into employment in Dallas and maintained his innocence to the point of victim blaming. He hasn't changed because he's not been forced to. He needs to be blacklisted by the NFL for a season at least. See if that has an impact on him. If it doesn't, he's probably way beyond help. For so many reasons, you're a moron.
  17. And as if by magic. 2 games of Gustafson - http://draftbreakdown.com/players/brady-gustafson/
  18. It's a no from me. Rather see 0-16 next season.
  19. The point is that Mettenberger was a long term project. He shouldn't have been starting in his rookie year. The same with EJ. It was sheer incompetence that both saw the field as rookies. If you throw someone to the wolves before they're ready, no good is coming from it.
  20. And there was me thinking you were being an idiot. Phew!
  21. You don't have your knee drained half a dozen times for no reason. It seems to keep on nagging at him. I hope it's wrong but it's something I think we have to entertain as a future risk.
  22. He once DM'd me on Twitter talking about his favourite food. Chris likes Mexican.
  23. Worrying trend though. I know every player is probably injured most of the time by medical definition but he's entering Stevie Johnson territory. Always something nagging him.
  24. DOOMED! DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMED I TELLS YA!
