Seems like we're taking chances.why not just let the clock run down after first down with one timeout?

Just a slight clarification, he is at practice every day and takes part in his position drills but sits out team drills. Images of Bud Dupree tearing his knee up on a one year deal last year are probably fresh in his mind.

Really the best case scenario as far as I am concerned is that Trubisky doesn't need to play this year but next year he goes somewhere else not in the AFC East and starts tearing it up. We'll have a better reputation out there among free agents and I'll take that any day over the draft pick in this scenario.

aaaannnnnddddd - Duke out.

Super bowl tickets this year

I thought I remember that said well prior by a poster named skooby, if I remember correctly. I think he also drove a bmw and wasn't afraid to tell you that.

I'm on lockdown for now https://www.wnep.com/article/news/state/dont-feed-the-birds-mysterious-disease-affecting-pennsylvania-songbirds/523-01ab1435-fcf4-47db-abed-44161d0b5a27

What I saw was Feliciano at LG and Ford at RG, switching from last year. Don't know if that's just for the cameras, for versatility or if it's longer term. I also thought the work Mckenzie put in catching punts has him as a lock for punt returner. He settled under the punt the best and I didn't see any bobbles. As long as he hangs on to the ball he will be the man. Also looks like he's in the plans for the offense. Knox spent a lot of time early in the practice working on catching. The TE coach was throwing tennis balls around with him and Know was just doing a lot of extra work. Seems like he's really putting some effort in. I will say the TE coach did get a good workout in today, he is all energy all the time. I'm not sure, but I think Tommy Sweeneys covid battle might have set him back physically a little. Just seemed that way to me.

The goal today was for everyone to stay on their feet. In a real game Kumerow and the ball would have been separated.

Looks like Sanders is taking the rest of the day off. He was over at the trainers table for a few minutes. Just hanging with the coaches now, didn't look like much either way.

They are in shells, no pants. I'm here.

If he's through the DL he doesn't need to; if he's got rushers in front/around him he needs to loop it. Assuming they are working on "don't run so much Josh, we need you the whole year".

Wants to get three full OL's with two guys out on Covid bench

Sounds like a +10# weekend

Ahhhh, this reminds of the consecutive 5 year span when Jerome Bettis came into camp in the best shape of his life but - surprisingly - didn't look a bit different from the prior year.

Lesson here is don't promise things to your kids you can't deliver.

I think it will be difficult to bring in a blue chip DL unless they are on the downhill side of their career. Any DL who is looking for top money on the free agent market will not come here for 50% of the defensive snaps. The only way they come is if they accept below market contracts given out lower snap count and want a chance to win. So I see in our future at DL a mix of older vets and draftee's and us hopefully squeezing out a good year or two from the older group and catching a ride with a young stud for a while. That said, it seems like a match with us if Short is willing to accept our offer, if we even made one. Our only issue is that we are really pretty stocked with DL now.

Sorry Dan, it's always tough for me to take you seriously, especially about the little stuff, because not every qb has your moxie and field awareness. https://youtu.be/J0OkR986LL4

Only one non-diggs catch

Then it became a bear feeder -

So I had a nice bird feeder, different birds showed up -

Hopefully we'll get flexed into a game. I assume we will be the "national" game at various times on Sunday afternoon, so that might count for something. As for folks saying they want just 1pm games - the only way we get that is if we suck. Having seen 17 years of straight suck from this team plus a lot of periods of suck I say bring on the prime time games!

Just a couple thoughts: I'll be surprised if Bates makes it this year due to the rookies. They didn't seem to want to use him last year when they could have and we don't need the jack of all trades now since we (hopefully) have decent depth on the inside and outside. I guess they have moved away from the fullback role, nary a peep has come out about trying to acquire one. It's now all about the pass first it looks like. I'm also not going to be surprised if Brieda is getting most of the carries this year. With the athletic oline you'd think we'd want to get on the outside more and I don't think Moss and Singletary have the juice to get there consistently.

I'm a strainer from way back, although I am not afraid to use the dirty strainer from yesterday. It's boiling water after all. Ingredients in addition to the noodles: 1 slice of american cheese (per ramen pack) with a little bit of water left in the noodles = cheese sauce 1 hotdog cut up in slices Any veggie that would work in soup and half the packet of seasoning.

Well, it seems like the future of our oline is tall and athletic - in other words, don't get your hopes up.
