  1. Yup. And keeps the NFL dream alive a bit longer. It's not a bad job if you can get it at all.
  2. Someone has to catch passes in camp. Maybe he finds his way to the PS, but he may be wiser to rent over buy.
  3. Antonio Brown as the special referee.
  4. Right now the injury list is long, but the encouraging thing is these all seem like short term issues. All ACLs, Achilles tendons and such seem to be intact. I'm fairly certain a lot of these guys could play if the season started tomorrow. But it doesn't...so rest em and let em heal.
  5. And when he is caught doing skeevy creeper things...well superstar football players tend not to face the same scrutiny (especially on a football campus) as someone who is a normal student. That's what leads some of these guys into their odd behaviors when they are in the NFL and no one is sweeping up their messes before they get heard about.
  6. Hope he has a speedy recovery.
  7. Loving everything I'm hearing/reading on Coleman the last couple days. Sounds to me like he's getting a real "Alpha dawg" mentality. Hope it carries over to games.
  8. I have to give it up for the Rams. They do an amazing job just finding good impactful football players with the few picks (or UDFAs) they seem to end up with every year.
  9. It's a very odd injury that could be almost anything. Hernia? Maybe. Heck he could have slept wrong. Maybe Christian Wilkins paid him a visit? In any event, with him being the only kicker on the roster I'm not gonna panic until I see the Bills bringing in another kicker.
  10. Is Kincaid's knee a new one or remaining injury from the end of last year? Also, Bass...pelvis soreness...that's a new one for me. But the pads are on today. I think this is where Max starts to really shine. I hope to see a lot of positive notes about Sanders and the rest of our new DL.
  11. Not live. But I'll catch some highlights here and there. By and large, there really aren't many guys that make it that are entertaining enough speakers to be interesting. Now should the day come and Marshawn Lynch makes it...that's must see to me. Dude is hysterical.
  12. I feel like this isn't factored in enough when we talk about the defense in practice. They line up against Josh Freaking Allen every day. Of course they are gonna get their tail kicked. When it comes to a guy like Max, going against our all universe, MVP, Superman of a QB day in and day out is going to help him in the long run. Come time for the regular season, yes we have Lamar first...but that's followed up with games against Justin Fields, Tua and whomever is the winner of the Saints job. Even if he's taking some lumps now...I think he will feast come game time against the lesser QBs of the league. Get him all the experience we can in time for him to be razor sharp for January.
  13. Nevermind public. What's he like outside of work and in the privacy of his or someone else's homes? Are the pets safe? What's his browser history look like? Is his house the one everyone walks past on trick or treat night even though he's giving out the full size Snickers bars?
  14. Yeah, Tre isn't gonna just give the rookie the spot. If Max starts he's gonna have to fight for it. Not sure I've ever seen such an intense quote from Tre before.
  15. He looked good in practice while he was here, too. It was either last year or the one before he was getting the majority of reps with the 1s (ahead of Benford) and looked to be on track to be the week 1 starter. Then Benford passed him at the last minute and everyone was confused. Let's see him in live game reps. I hope he does well. But some guys shine in practice then flop on game day.
  16. In that scenario I would be keeping 6. Most likely it would come at the expense of Codrignton if he gets beat out for the return job.
  17. No. In other words the data provided does not match what most people are talking about when they talk "deep ball". It's not even comparing apples to oranges. Its like comparing apples to drywall screws. And yes, good old fashioned eyeball tests are still the best method. Data can be used to support what you see, of course. But data without proper context is often times misleading.
  18. The issue I have with this sentiment and these numbers is that in this day and age I don't think when people talk "deep ball" they are discussing 20 yard pass plays. You can quantify it any way that it needs to be sugar coated to save face for Josh, but he is not accurate on passes that are truly deep down field. I'm talking 40-50 yards. Moon balls as it were. Now granted the further the target the slimmer the window to hit it. And passes that deep require the ability of the WR to track it. But more often than not it seems like Josh is so scared to under throw and get picked off (arm punt) that he overthrows the target range by a fair amount.
  19. No. What caused that "dust up" was Stefs ego and toxic personality. Technically, I don't think what she said was incorrect. He just needed to do his PR and try and keep his reputation in good light.
  20. Shakir, Coleman, Palmer and Samuels are the only "pretty much locks" I see. I like Moore and was among the first to call for signing him during the draft weekend...but he's got to earn it. They have traditionally kept 5 WR. However, Shavers best path to the 53 is showing he can play STs and taking one of those spots. Also depends on the health of the WR room by the end of camp. Still a long way to go but there is a path for him to have a real role. Is it more "likely" he's on the PS? Sure. Absolutely. I'm just saying he's got a path.
  21. Few thoughts of mine from this string of tweets. 1. Shavers is one to watch. I've said all of seasons he has a legitimate shot at the 53. I stand by that. Seems like a guy that can catch a few passes, but play STs, and Finn in that Kumerow/Sherfield/Hollins role from years past. He can carve a role for himself. 2. Bishop seeing so much with the 1s this early isn't a bad thing. But I'm not reading into it too much just yet. He could still take the starting job if he stays healthy and shows well. And it looks like he's being given the opportunity. 3. Good day for Keon after a bad day 1. But this is who I expect him to be. He will have some really good games this year. He will disappear in a few games this year. I don't see him week in and week out being dominant...but he will flash. 4. I continue to say it. Grable over Van Demark is more about Grables ability to play both tackle spots equally as opposed to RVD that is really solid at LT but equally shaky at RT. Seeing Van Demark traded wouldn't shock me. Buffalo values position flexibility on the line and that's something he's been missing to this point. A lot will depend on health of the lineman at the end of PS. But we are ridiculously deep at OL.
  22. Not necessarily. In training camps a lot of times it's standard for leg injuries as the medical facility is often a bit of a distance from the practice field.
  23. I like Van Demark as well...but only on the left side. He's below average at RT..or at least has been to this point.
  24. It's almost like the Browns are what you would get if you hired a roomful of comedy writers and tried to make a sitcom about a struggling NFL team. At this point they may as well move to Florida, call themselves the Orlando Breakers and hire Craig T. Nelson as the head coach. They had a QB. They let Stefanski run him outta town.
  25. How anyone can seriously root for this team is beyond me. By far the biggest joke of a franchise in the NFL. They make the Jets look darn near competent.
