  1. He has a good arm. He has plus athleticism. He's not Mahomes or Rodgers but he has the talent to be a legit NFL QB. Do I think it's going to happen? Honestly, no I don't. But the possibility does exist. The odds were 0.00% with Teddy.
  2. Honestly, I don't think he will given our OL injury and depth issues, I'm just saying if I was him I'd be nervous. Rhule was pissed about the penalties. and he was a big offender. If Rhule wants to send a message there, he's probably the most obvious candidate.
  3. I think there's gonna be a statement cut after that rash of penalties yesterday. I would be nervous right now if I'm Trent Scott.
  4. He's visiting his former coach and showing support. I didn't see any pics, but I'd bet he was wearing WFT gear when he visited Ron in DC too.
  5. Last year, Slye was 24th in FG accuracy and tied for 22nd in XP accuracy. For a big legged kicker, he only made one 50+ yard attempt despite 6 tries. He had the lowest 50+ yard FG accuracy in the NFL. I was really surprised that we didn't bring in legit competition for him during camp.
  6. If I understand it correctly, he would have to be placed on the final 53 to ultimately be placed on IR. Honestly, I anticipate him to be waived with an injury designation.
  7. Hated to see him injured, but I think he was fighting for a bottom of the roster spot and yesterday did not go well for him, injury aside. He was getting picked on by third and fourth stringers.
  8. Greg Little very well may have leapfrogged him yesterday. He stuck out in a very negative way.
  9. Yeah, didn't intend to insinuate that I was concerned about Christensen's snap count. I see it as encouraging if anything.
  10. This is specifically what I'm talking about. If you view a topic of not being worthy of consideration, just don't click on it. Coming into topics to bash the topic and/or the posters is something you'll start seeing a crackdown on in the regular season. It just invites personal arguments and derails threads. We're seeing way too much of it right now. Fair warning.
  11. The coaches aren't going to be happy about that 15 yard penalty, but I agree that he showed some promise. I liked that draft pick last year and it disappointed me when he was cut. Hopefully things start to click for him. I think he has some talent to work with.
  12. This. I just don't think PJ has the talent to be the answer, so why bother unless it's due to injury? Darnold does have the talent to be the answer. Give him the full season or as many games as his health allows to prove what he can do.
  13. No. Complaining about someone having a different point of view or asking a question you don't think is worthy consideration isn't the point of a forum. Address the point with a counterpoint if you'd like or simply don't click if you don't think it's a worthwhile topic. It should be pretty simple. We're just seeing way too many threads derailed by people complaining about people voicing an opinion different from their own right now. Comments from the other side of the fence are expected and should be welcomed. Comments complaining that there is another side of the fence are the problem.
  14. It amazes me that people come into a clearly titled thread to complain about the topic instead of simply not clicking. Actually, it doesn't amaze me. It's par for the course. I just don't understand what drives people to do it.
  15. And I don't think that's going to matter. He'll make the roster or he'll get cut based on the merits of his play currently. If sitting out a year put him behind and leads to him getting cut, then I wish him the best of luck latching on elsewhere. It is what it is. This is a cutthroat league and we need to keep our best players.
  16. PJ didn't look like the answer last year. They made their bed with Darnold. If he's terrible, it's time to lie in it. Keep trotting him out there and let him deliver a high draft pick. It is what it is for this season. We've chosen to ride with Darnold, so ride on whether it's great, good, bad, or ugly.
  17. Lots of college LTs change positions in the NFL. They've determined he simply doesn't have LT traits. I'm with you though that I don't see the issue of at least giving him a look there since we're playing musical chairs everywhere else.
  18. You accidentally stumbled onto a good point here with a specific word choice. A lot of people are letting what they "believe" get in the way of what good data is actually showing and they bolster these beliefs with anecdotal occurrences and "friend of a friend" stories. There is ample data showing that the vaccines are safe and effective. They still provide good protection against transmission, even against Delta. Yes, the protection is reduced but it is still good. They provide very good protection against the development of serious illness. The data is out there.
  19. Yeah, I hope we don't hold that against him but at the same time, I don't expect him to be given any extra leeway.
  20. I liked it. A lot of of honesty. You could tell he had his roster favorites but that's alright. Our broadcast was much better and much more honest than the Colts'. If you were Colts fan taking their commentary to heart you would expect a roster of all future HOFers and would experience grave disappointment at anything less than an undefeated SB season.
  21. Yeah, there's some indication that long haul COVID patients could be variant factories which makes sense I guess. The virus is obviously having to stay a step ahead of their immune systems.
  22. Not very often. The OL will definitely hear an earful about that play.
  23. If you actually care... https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/conditions-and-diseases/coronavirus/covid-19-vaccines-myth-versus-fact
  24. Combo of zero blocking, zero tackling, and a ton of effort and determination from Chuba.
