I didn't click on the link....but it says up front on the title it's a fantasy football perspective. 

and yeah, I would think Brooks wouldn't have a great fantasy outlook at all this year.  Hurt.  Eased in to a crowded backfield......on a bad team.

Wow, I half expected tubby on the right to break down in tears at some point. Obviously they’re just Cowboys fans without any knowledge about any other teams. “OL is atrocious” there’s no evidence to qualify that statement. This OL is 3/5 different from last year with different coaching and schemes, we have no idea how they’ll be, but at the very least it was highly invested in. Pinning fantasy hopes for Brooks on Bryce is a fool’s errand.

Must be a Cowboys’ fan. Eat your heart out, Jerry Jones!!!

They both have lots of Dallas memorabilia on the walls behind them.

And Fug fantasy football!!! The only fantasy I'm concerned with involves Scarlett Johansen and Salma Hayak showing up at my door with with a jar of coconut oil bottle of good bourbon .

before the draft i had heard that the cowboys were really wanting him as their new bell cow RB. they'd been following his recovery progress and hadn't seen anything to dissuade them from drafting him.

Quote

"In my 30 years, I thought it was the best interview that I've ever interviewed with a player," Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones said late Thursday at the team's post-Round 1 press conference. "He's [Brooks] outstanding. He's just outstanding. He's a great football player. We've got him high, high, high. And he's a good player." 

His son Stephen, the Cowboys COO and executive vice president, then elbowed him, saying "you're showing the [draft] board!"

Dallas never had the chance to select Brooks at pick No. 56 since the Carolina traded up six spots from 52nd overall to 46th overall to select the Texas Longhorn. Brooks being the first running back off the board at 46th overall makes the 2024 draft the second-latest the first running back had ever come off the board, ahead of only the 2014 draft (Bishop Sankey 56th overall). 

 

The 2023 Second Team All-Big 12 running back averaged 129.5 scrimmage yards per game in 2023, the second-most in the Big 12, thanks to the six-foot, 216-pound back's combination of speed, agility and acceleration. Brooks' ability to make a single cut and then float to the outside before accelerating into the open field appears to be magical. Last November at TCU, he was on fire with 104 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns on 21 carries, but his final collegiate season was cut short by a torn ACL injury he suffered in the fourth quarter that night. 

No team possessed more information about Brooks' rehabilitation process than the Cowboys because Dallas' team doctor Dan Cooper performed the running back's ACL surgery.

    • Losing weight can often feel like an uphill battle, especially with so many diet plans and fitness regimens claiming to be the ultimate solution. The truth is, weight loss doesn’t have to be complicated. By focusing on sustainable habits and proven techniques, you can shed those extra pounds more efficiently and maintain a healthy lifestyle in the long run. In this article, we’ll explore five proven ways to help you lose weight faster, while keeping your overall well-being in mind. 1. Optimize Your Diet with Whole Foods When it comes to weight loss, what you eat plays a crucial role. Opting for a diet rich in whole, unprocessed foods can significantly speed up the process. Whole foods, such as fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, whole grains, and healthy fats, provide your body with essential nutrients without added sugars, unhealthy fats, or empty calories. Why Whole Foods Work: Satiety: Whole foods tend to be more filling than processed alternatives, helping you feel satisfied for longer. This can reduce overeating and mindless snacking. Nutrient Density: Whole foods are rich in vitamins, minerals, and fiber, which support your overall health and keep your metabolism functioning optimally. Lower in Calories: Whole, unprocessed foods are often lower in calories than processed snacks, making it easier to create a calorie deficit and lose weight. Actionable Tips: Replace sugary snacks with fresh fruits or nuts. Focus on incorporating lean proteins like chicken, turkey, or plant-based options like beans and lentils. Swap refined grains for whole grains like quinoa, brown rice, and oats. 2. Increase Your Physical Activity While diet plays a significant role in weight loss, exercise is equally important. Regular physical activity not only burns calories but also boosts your metabolism, improves muscle tone, and enhances your overall health. Why Exercise Works: Calorie Burn: Physical activity burns calories, helping you create the necessary calorie deficit to lose weight. Improved Metabolism: Exercise, particularly strength training, can increase your resting metabolic rate by building muscle. The more muscle you have, the more calories your body burns at rest. Fat Loss: Exercise helps target fat loss, especially when combined with a healthy diet. It also helps maintain lean muscle mass, which is important for a toned physique. Actionable Tips: Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise or 75 minutes of vigorous exercise per week. Include a mix of cardiovascular exercises (like walking, running, or cycling) and strength training (such as weightlifting or bodyweight exercises). Try high-intensity interval training (HIIT), which alternates between short bursts of intense activity and recovery, to burn more calories in less time. 3. Stay Hydrated and Drink Water Before Meals Water is often overlooked in weight loss strategies, but staying hydrated is key to shedding pounds faster. Drinking water before meals has been shown to reduce appetite and calorie intake, making it easier to maintain a calorie deficit. Why Water Works: Appetite Control: Drinking water before meals can help you feel fuller, which may reduce the likelihood of overeating. Boosts Metabolism: Staying hydrated keeps your metabolism functioning optimally, which aids in the breakdown of fat. Calorie-Free: Replacing sugary drinks and beverages with water can significantly reduce your daily calorie intake. Actionable Tips: Drink a glass of water 30 minutes before each meal to curb your appetite. Carry a reusable water bottle with you throughout the day to remind yourself to stay hydrated. Replace sugary drinks like sodas, juices, and flavored coffees with water or herbal teas. 4. Get Enough Sleep and Manage Stress Sleep and stress are often overlooked factors when it comes to weight loss. Lack of sleep and chronic stress can interfere with your hormones, particularly those related to hunger and satiety, making it harder to lose weight. Why Sleep and Stress Management Work: Hormonal Balance: Sleep deprivation and high stress levels increase the production of ghrelin (the hunger hormone) and decrease leptin (the satiety hormone), leading to increased cravings and overeating. Reduced Stress Eating: Chronic stress can lead to emotional eating or cravings for high-calorie comfort foods. Improved Recovery: Quality sleep helps your body recover from exercise and supports muscle growth, which is essential for a higher metabolic rate. Actionable Tips: Aim for 7-9 hours of sleep per night to support your weight loss goals. Create a bedtime routine to improve sleep quality—avoid screens before bed, dim the lights, and consider meditative practices to wind down. Incorporate stress-reduction techniques like deep breathing, yoga, or mindfulness into your daily routine to manage stress and avoid emotional eating. 5. Practice Mindful Eating Mindful eating is about paying full attention to your food, savoring every bite, and being aware of hunger and fullness cues. This practice can help you avoid overeating, reduce cravings, and foster a healthier relationship with food. Why Mindful Eating Works: Reduced Overeating: By eating slowly and paying attention to your body’s hunger signals, you are more likely to stop eating when you’re full, which can prevent overconsumption. Better Digestion: Mindful eating can improve digestion, as eating slowly allows your body to properly process food and absorb nutrients. Emotional Awareness: Mindful eating can help you differentiate between physical hunger and emotional hunger, reducing the likelihood of stress or boredom eating. Actionable Tips: Eat without distractions like TV or smartphones to focus on your meal. Take smaller bites and chew your food thoroughly. Pause between bites and assess your hunger levels to avoid eating beyond fullness. Conclusion Losing weight faster doesn’t mean resorting to extreme diets or overexerting yourself in the gym. By focusing on whole foods, increasing physical activity, staying hydrated, getting enough sleep, and practicing mindful eating, you can achieve sustainable weight loss in a healthy and balanced way. These five proven strategies work because they address the key aspects of weight loss—calorie control, metabolism, and overall well-being—without compromising your health.

    • I tend to agree. I'm not seeing any more Bryce hangers-on in any sort of critical mass. There may be a couple that are more meh about him rather than being vehemently against him taking one more breath of Carolina air, but I wouldn't call that being a Bryce-stan. Even if there are a couple out there who still support him, even they will admit that he has been 180 degrees from what he was sold as. That said, I've noticed more how this board has gotten (IMO) almost toxic towards him with the personal attacks. Yes he sucks and yes he has to be gone asap, but you would think he's the worst person (not just player) affiliated with the Panthers this century.  At risk of getting poo'd, that's not trying police or play hall monitor. Just an observation. 
    • I forgot about Alex! Really liked that dude. But let's face it, we need another Brad Hoover.
