D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 I appreciate anyone who is giving their honest evaluation of what things look like. Combine a few things we hear and make best sense of it. Me too!!
Gavin in Va Beach Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 Best camp write-up in the business! Thanks Astro!
thunderingsquid Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 LOL "O'Leary has one red sneaker and one blue sneaker on. I'm betting he has another pair at home." I'm really liking Croom, I hope he makes the team! Listed as 6'6" 245 lbs.
K-9 Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 I point to the second Miami game last season as when TT really did a great job moving defenders around; the first time, really, that he impressed me in that regard. And his eyes have a lot to do with that, obviously. So I'm thrilled to hear that a seasoned camp observer notices TT's improved ability in that area. That kind of command was the ONE aspect of his game I was hoping TT would carry into this season. Fingers crossed it continues. Thanks again, Astro.
Mark Vader Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 Fantastic report, Astro. Many thanks. I love reading about what they are doing with Shady as a receiver.
Chandler#81 Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 Great to read Mills is starting to dominate. We may need him over on a the Left side.. Also, if nothing else, Peterman appears to be a lock to make the team. Hard counting is the only way whatzhidname ever saw the field except in emergencies or meaningless regular season finales after Houston. Ranks Rastro!
quinnearlysghost88 Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 This is exactly where I want Peterman: third QB, learning, not a lot of pressure to perform, figuring out what it means to be a starting QB.
Jerry Jabber Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 Thanks again Astro, I always look forward to your reports.
John from Riverside Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 It sounds like Peterman is having a really good camp and is likely edging Yates out for #2. Do you have the same assessment? I guess we'll find out in a game.... That is what I was thinking as well....if Yates and Peterman are equal they will go with the youth Sounds like the offense is starting to pick it up I wonder if everyone realizes that 2 years ago this offense couldnt complete passes against air

BobbyC81 Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 Awesome, Astro! It's tough to do but I think you outdid yourself with this one. Thanks.
fansince88 Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 (edited) Astro, do you see improvement from Petterman as camp proceeds? Seems like he is tightening the race for #2 does it not? Edited August 3, 2017 by fansince88
BobbyC81 Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 Great to hear about Tyrod using his eyes, sounds like he had a better day than the last few practices I don't know what it's like having 300# defenders trying to pummel you but I've been surprised how so many QBs stare down receivers instead of using their eyes and execute poor play action fakes, especially considering how effective they can be. Perhaps it is because they have these defenders trying to kill them but sometimes, especially play action fakes, it seems to be half-hearted attempts.

Joe B's daily writeup told a different story regarding Mills. Who to believe?
OldTimeAFLGuy Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 .....astonishing write up Astro......keep it up and we'll have to start a GoFundMe page for carpal tunnel... ...NEVER have seen anything like this in 55 years........Mills improving, Peterman as well,...all good signs IMO..............
