That is horrible to say. Punts are very underappreciated. Those guys are so good it is sick. They "pooch" a kick farther than I can punt it with my ball blaster 3000 tights on. and now they back it up like a good wedge shot.

Amazingly accurate statement.

Horn already has swag. He is the real deal. Marshall is going to be special too, and I love Christensen and Brown inside. They have a lot to learn still, and each has some checklist things to develop. Tremble is a gamer and will rock you, Shi Smith (hope he is OK--wondering about broken collar bone) and Taylor are a season away from being key contributors. The DTs have flashed. The only question mark is the long snapper, but a season working on the PS could make him ready.

Grier was not bad last night, and PJ is just not an NFL QB. Grier is not much, but I think he got better with confidence. After the TD run, he seemed to see the light a bit. I dunno. They are both inconsistent and not real good. Fun Fact: I had forgotten, but Grier came in 4th in the Heisman voting. And now you know.

What? Kidding. Always appreciate your candor.

Appreciate the similes like a fat kid when the ice cream truck breaks down in front of his house and the driver faints from heat exhaustion. Seriously, well written and accurate.

Good eye. Paradis was the worst, but I need to watch this again

And when he plays well week 1: "Well, that was not the Super Bowl." It seemed to me that they were running vanilla plays and they told him to get rid of the ball vs. taking a hit. He did his job, got off the field, and he was not hammered all night trying to convince a bunch of root ranchers that he can dominate a preseason game.

Lovin me some Hartsfield. They developed him into a stud.

I like that idea. Paradis lead the league in "help ups" last year. Saying to his QB, "My man just pancaked you...Let me help you up."

You people have no souls. I bet half of you were treated with more compassion when you were moved from the french fryer to the Milkshake machine. I felt bad for him, but he is gone.

I HOPE that in next years' draft we are drafting for a C and LG. Daley was decent, by the way. Erving has some technique issues at LT. Gonna get SD killed.

About Brown: He was very active. I liked what I saw, but he got confused a bit. Now, that could be Tecklenburg as much as anything. The player I thought sucked the most? Paradis. I need to watch it again, but I was tracing pressure back to A gap all night long.

I watched Christensen tonight and this is what I saw: He was in good position nearly every play. His hands were usually in position. He was technically sound, and he can slide really well. He got bull rushed a bit. He needs strength.

for all of you trashing Sam because it was vs. backups, etc. It was also his first action in the stadium, and he was playing behind a line that has a lot to do to get right. I think he was better than Teddy. I will leave it there---I predicted 2 TDs and 146 yards--he got 2 TDs and 160 something yards--about what I predicted--meaning that he did his job tonight.

I meant about my love for mannequins---allegedly.

Me too. What have you heard?

I do not think the HOF game should give a team an extra preseason game--if they all get 3, then keep if fair and square.

I nearly said that, but then CRA would have come back with, "The same could be said about Fitterer" and he'd be right!

Everyone calm down!! There is enough suckage to go around.

Seifert and Nakamura

I really like the quality of this draft on day 3, and if you can point me to a day 3 in any draft before this one that is/was worthy of equal expectations, I'd love to hear it. And yes, we did hear that about Gettlemen, and he did a good job of getting us out of cap hell with one year contracts. There was reason to be excited. We were without crystal balls then, as we are now. But this is what makes it fun--and us fans.

149 yards. 11/16 2 tds

Those are your words; nobody is saying what you are hearing. We are simply saying we like the aggression. So far, his first draft seems strong. Gettlemen never traded back and Hurney rarely did--this guy is different.
