Hope to see a lot of that from Gresham this year. He's on my fantasy team.

It's a treat to watch Aaron Rodgers throw the football.

Weeden looked a lot better, should look even better when he actually has Trent Richardson with him.

Josh Gordon had a couple solid catches as well, nice to see.

Bengals secondary sucked. Bengals offensive line sucked. Need to get guys healthy. Seen some good things but seen a whole lot more bad things.

Niners still have the best unis in football. They held that honor prior to the switch to Nike as well, IMO
I think I'd have to agree. I love that red and gold. They have a classic look, and yet modern at the same time. It's simplistic and clean, and I love them.
Like I said above though, I think having alternate red pants would be awesome, to have an all red home alternate uniform, and the white on red like in the pic above. But just as an alternate, I do like the gold pants.

Although I can't stand how on the Nike ones, only like 1 of the stripes on the sleeve shows up on the shorter sleeves. There's room there for all three!

Did you see Colt McCoy in the preseason last year? Dude looked like a HOF.

The preseason is a one way street for QB's. If you play bad, it's terrible, because you are playing bad against vanilla defenses, and most likely some back ups. If you play good, well who cares, because you're playing against vanilla defenses and some back ups.

And like I said, Weeden has the tools. But I didn't see improvements on the weaknesses he had in college against the Lions. I didn't see any of the Green Bay game, but I really want to see the things I was iffy about. You gotta be wary though, the Packers also had the worst D in the league last year.

I do want to say it again though, I do like Weeden lol. I'm just not sold on him yet.

I really hope Gordon turns out to be a gem for the Browns. I like to see guys like him work their way back like he has.

He certainly looks like a #1 WR on pure physical abilities. His route running needs a lot of work though.

On the Weeden front, the big drawback on him is obviously not being able to handle pressure but he did stand in the pocket, take a big hit and deliver a first down throw last night, so there was at least a little progress. Still needs to improve on it though.

The game is going to get much easier for him when he actually gets Trent in the backfield. Montario Hardesty is atrocious in the pass game. He legitimately ducked when Weeden threw a pass at him once, and also put his hands down as a pass was coming his way.

Pats just signed Olympic sprinter and former Gator Jeff Demps


BB just loves his Urban Meyer guys (Hernandez, Cunningham, Spikes, Deaderick, Ebner, Demps)


Hopefully he makes the team, he'd add a lot of dynamic to our stacked offense, and would be a great KR imo.

The Patriots are going to draft John Simon next year.

Good to hear. I PVR'd the game from NFL N, so I'm gonna watch it now quick before the games tonight.

That was not the greatest of decisions that I've seen from a QB.

You can see he hesitated, but then decided to go for it. He's trying to do too much to win the job, when in reality, all he had to do was not do that to win the job.
