The Williams injury was awful. I have not heard a player scream in pain like that since Kelvin Benjamin. Best we can hope for is a broken bone at this point I think. Would be better than joint damage. Poor guy is in a contract year.

 

James Bradberry had whatay be his best day of camp in recent memory. Guy was just all over Funchess all day long.

 

Guess what? Cameron Artis Payne looks really good in camp. But he always has. I still don't understand why he is so underutilized.

 

Cam getting rid of the ball quicker this year for sure. Far fewer "would be sacks". You all know it always drove me crazy when half of camp was just Cam sitting back for seven seconds before throwing. Those days appear to be gone.

 

The secondary overall today smothered the receivers. I don't know if that's a good or bad thing.

 

CMC was wearing a sweater shirt under his pads. Seems like he is talking to CJ Anderson. Anderson always does, says he likes to practice feeling heavy so when gameday comes he feels light . 

For the folks that swore offensive execution had nothing to do with coaching.... The entire offense is so much crisper this year. Everything already looks well into preseason form.

Such a horrible situation for Williams. It always comes back to this being a true ‘business’. He had an offer on the table that I’d imagine would have made him a top 10 paid right tackle in the league. He (rightfully so) declined and bet on himself and ends up in an absolute nightmare scenario. Gotta feel for the guy.

I don't think they're unaware that the secondary is widely seen as our weakest link on the D side. They're playing with chips...I like it. I hope they carry it through the season.

I can't wait to field an actual offense this year. The biggest difference I see this training camp is how Norv and our offensive coaches are ACTUAL coaching the offense and working with them. I can't believe it's taken Ron this damn long to hire an actual offensive coach that knows what he's doing. I have no doubt we would have one superbowl by now if we made this switch a long time ago. Thank God the Shula days of miscommunication, confused, predictable, sloppy offense is gone.

if williams is done you're gonna have to.

Yep. No more relying solely on Cam to do everything for the offense. Norv is going to have to scheme around to make it work (which I think he is capable of). If Shula was still OC in these same circumstances, I would be absolutely devastated for the upcoming season (still sucks though, DW is a beast).

Offense is going to be potent with Hi-Lo passing concept to go with a traditional running game & a mobile QB. I pity the NFL defenses that are gonna try to stop them!

Our line is still sheet though. What I would have gave to keep Norwell around.

Bullet dodged. I for sure thought he broke something.

Yeah that sounded terrible to me from the hill... My skinny ass can’t even imagine that type of pain that makes a 330lb NFL All Pro scream out like that.

      2025 season

      By spydaman27 · Posted

      I just rewatched all the highlights from after Bryce being benched. The Bryce hate needs to calm down a little bit. He showed a ton of potential the back half of the year. Same with Legette. They both made great plays when it mattered and a few mistakes when it counted. If we didn’t have a historically awful defense last year we could have ended even a bit better. Going into a brand new season we should be optimistic at least before game one. 2015 no one expected to go anywhere and the team steam rolled the league. I’m not saying that will happen, but hopefully we made strides to improve on the end of last year. Bryce put both Super Bowl teams in a battle last year and if we had a better D we could have taken them both. So at least look forward to the season and not past the season until it at least begins.

      Jabrill Peppers Available

      By Proudiddy · Posted

      I’m not mad at Moehrig.  He’s great at what he does.  And to be honest, a lot of my favorite safeties in our history were box-first type guys - Maxie, Minter, Mike Mitchell, Chris Harris…  they’re first and foremost objective was to put people on their backs and coverage was secondary.  There is a place for that.  There is a definite need for that.  Physical guys that set the tone.  So cool, we have that in Moerhig. But what we have lacked for the vast majority of our existence is a true free safety that cleans everything up on the back end.  Sometimes they come in the form of a JOAT, like Peppers.  I think he would be a fantastic compliment to Moehrig’s strengths and weaknesses.  If we don’t go after him, I certainly hope Ransom is given the chance to grow and develop in real-time with real game reps, because what he did in preseason was very encouraging to see.  I hope he can grow into that roaming center fielder with a little bit of an edge to him as an enforcer as well.  He has the tools.  In the meantime, adding Peppers would only help.

      Everything revolves around Bryce This Year

      Option 1 is most likely. Even if he kills it this year, it wouldn't be prudent to rush an extension for one good season. If you have to pay him more because you waited another year, then he earned it. And that's OK. Adjust accordingly.
