  1. Good thing we dressed an extra dl at each spot.. oh wait lol. Gonna be forced into a 30 front for sure now.
  2. Better long lucky than good Biggie off side on the blitz and gets nothing.
  3. Bad kick cover to start out Jake owned on the nose.
  4. Looking at the panel makes me glad I have it muted and ob on.
  5. If our O isn’t going to be elite, it’s a much bigger problem. He’s barely better than trash.
  6. Yep. He hasn’t been a T for a long long time. If he was 28 maybe you look at it seriously. Any year/Game could be his last. Ep?
  7. He isn’t, but he isn’t worse than Lofton either. I’d go Eli at guard and neuf at T rather than Lofton at guard. But really we need to get rid of atleast one pr ol and bring in a real T.
  8. Wasn’t him, he didn’t get any returns in the pre season. Passing game has to adjust and expect a lot more second and longs. I don’t expect him to see 15-20 carries any way though. I think we will see a lot more sweep, strevy etc.
  9. This is what I expected. Should’ve been more severe but he’s hurt any way.
  10. I went in looking for a new one but wasn't happy with the mid off season selection. But they generally come out with a couple really nice ones through out the year. I do wish we could order them with the designs in any lay out we want. The 19 GC hat is beautiful, but that flat brim eww. Hate snap backs too personally, love the flex fit. One person is selling some on FB market place right now, autographed for 40 bucks a pop. I usually see them going for about 50. It's funny the old portable comfy seat things that went on the old seats seem to sell for more. I heard they scooped up a bunch, which was pretty smart, and cool. I was thinking about building some in to my deck reno, Ill probably just build some thing more comfortable though.
  11. Or even how he misjudged the distance frequently and had to run then stop to catch, making it hard for him to get going again.
  12. Waited till the very last minute strung us along even into camp, which is bad enough. BUT if he had decided it was right then called it and returned the cash, fine, thats the risk you run with an old guy. But stealing that roster bonus and refusing to show was soo low. Screw that guy.
  13. The thing is, neither guy on the PR is a natural tackle. Both are guys that teams have tried to convert to RT a bit. Vanterpool, is really talented but his vaunted stretch of play was all at right guard. Randolph had more starts at TE than T, and the vast majority of his games were also at RG. Both bama and hawaii used them in a pinch at RT, and NFL teams tried to convert both to RT as well, but neither stuck that long. Both are the same situation as Lofton, just younger greener guys. (Both with more upside, especially vanterpool) Either one of those guys would be a fine developmental player. But we are in a situation where we may well need an IMP T to step in and start from the PR this year, and we don't have a guy who would leave us better than kicking most any of our roster guys over to RT. It's a bad situation to be in. I was disappointed at the relatively few/low quality/late reps that both guys got in pre season. Lofton is 31 and has never shown a fraction of what richmond showed, who is still 28.
  14. Yeah Coleman was in the twilight of his career here, no longer the explosive break away guy but he had such a great understanding of the job and did exactly what you needed. If any thing I’d be fine with a smart role player in the kr role rather than trying for the next grant or nothing less.
  15. That'd be gravy for sure. All I want him to do is 1, catch every ball possible in the air. 2, dont signal for a fair catch lol. 3, dont hesitate when he catches it or when he gets to the point of first contact, just go. 4, don't fumble or do any thing stupid. If he does all that and gets just 5 yards per punt return and 20 yards per kick off, that's good. 10 yards per punt and 30 per kick off isn't worth it if the ball is bouncing around etc.
  16. Ahh yes the classic biggie stuff. Mine cant control his 2nd gear yet, so I can keep up for now. But boy it's getting hard. He has no fear at all. He went for the plunge off the couch on me and got soo high he almost went over my shoulder. Could a been ugly, but I got him. Cant lose to a toddler now can I, its not a 4 stripe house after all.
  17. It's going to be a real telling game for the coaching staff. Ott has soo many guys that are former bombers, but especially with Rose on the PR, and brown. They know our personnel, and what we do inside and out. And we know brown far better than the ott coaching staff. We don't have game film on them this year, and they do have it on us this year. How well we game planned for this one will be key to our early success, but how we adjust on both sides of the ball to them is going to be the major indicator for our coaching staff. We will have to out adjust them no question in my mind. We can't wait too long to do it either.
  18. Keys to the game imo, 1, zach needs to be comfy. He needs to shake the rust off, find and maintain a rhythm, plus have better pass pro. Key piece here is Feltmate. I expect to see him in a lot on passing downs for pass pro. 2, Need some one to step up on offence to support zach. 2 of our and the leagues best weapons are out. Need that gap filled. Key guy here is wheatfall imo, he's a real sleeper but is the exact type of guy zach loves to lean on. 3, better game from the secondary. Mainly ford and holm need to gel and improve. We need to come out hot today, no more sluggishness.
  19. He had a sick streak that year for games with out any turn overs too. Haha yep, I never thought that would be a useful life skill. One day he's going to learn a double move and put me on my ass though I know it. Need to start holding new dad mini camps. Help guys round out the skill set.
  20. Especially that, the best qb runs come from delay plays while the wrs run off the dbs. 100% the hurry up after the short yardage play was always a huge advantage.
  21. That is correct. He retired suspended with a contract dispute. Retiring from suspended list would just have him return to the suspended list. Otherwise guys could abuse retirement left right and centre.
  22. If we don't have him throw, he's gonna get hurt. Plop used him as a one play wildcat. And you just cant sustain that. Hell, have him throw a screen or hook and run a designed lateral. Like a hook and ladder play, but in a bit of a smaller area. Have him throw the play action cross we run soo much. We've got to throw in wrinkles right away. Hard pass.
