Don't the players also put Ray Lewis in the pro bowl every year, when he's not even the best linebacker on his team?

15 yards per catch. It's not an insult. I'm not saying he runs nothing but goes, he runs a ton of routes. They just generally are designed to attack the safety. At least that's how he has been used most effectively in the past. With Bennett and Jeffrey, sending Marshall underneath would be idiotic.
Would you want a knife in your throat?
Damn Arian eat some damn meat! He looks really skinny in this pic but he with Barry Sanders so...SWAG.
That's what happens when you go on a vegan diet
BOYS! BOYS! ENOUGH ROUGH-HOUSING!
Players were probably scared Cam would steal their laptop!
This is a valid point that I failed to consider.....
It actually looks like Newton comes up looking to pass it to the wr in the flat. If he lobs it over the end, it goes for good yardage. He decides to run the original play, option left. But the line allows penetration up the middle, game over. 25 on the defense has the pitch man, which is why he isn't ganging up on Cam.
I like how NFL coaches figured out how to destroy the option game after the Jets got away with it for about 3 games, and college coaches are still clueless. Penetration up the middle/blitz a db off the edge. The Bucs did both right here.
The main complaint about Jones from the draft was his upright rush style and lack of speed, and I kind of saw that yesterday, but he looked powerful and quick in his block shedding moves, I was impressed. Hightower looked HUGE, he was bull rushing the shit out of lineman, making great tackles, and generally wreaking havoc on the line. Tavon Wilson was good too, he made some really nice plays.
Gregory and Wilson could be such a nice addition to the dbackfield, especially if Chung stays healthy. Dowling looked nice, but Arrington and McCourty were so slow to react to the pass, that wasn't promising.
I can't believe anyone wanted Arians. The only thing I can thing of was that they couldn't find anyone better? But considering they just drafted their franchise qb you would think that would be an area they would want to be a strength...
Help a rookie out by getting him a great running back, or offensive line, or at the very least a competent coach/coordinator.
Or dump the ball off. He was just looking at the rush. I will give him a pass on that one play though because you rarely see 3-4 guys coming through that quickly. I have seen Ben get caught by something similar where he evades a guy coming to one side and doesn't see the guy on the other side coming free.
Speaking of Ben, man Adams is fucking garbage. I think we can call him a bust. Why do the good players get injured?
he squickened. the Lions.
You can't outlaw it because it would be impossible, or very difficult, to block a one or three step drop. Guess you can ban WRs from doing it but OL have to do it in order to get defensive lineman to drop their hands and open windows for slants, screens, sticks and quick outs.
I didn't think Gilbert was going to develop, either, but he turned out ok. Steelers are going 0-16 anyways, might as well let the rookies learn on the job. Too bad the first and third round picks are already down with major knee injuries.
Slash 2.0!!

He pissed me off in this pic when was this?

Just because two of the best linebackers in the league are on the Ravens doesn't make Ray any less deserving to be recognized as the best at his position year in and year out.
Ray is the Buck Showalter of the Ravens D; he just makes them better than they are.
Its a dutch song by a comedian under the name Ome Henk.
He has a noodle arm. I know your schaub fan number 1, but if you watch its not hard to see. When was the last time youve seen a WR run under a schaub pass and into the endzone I.e. AJ? I bet you can't remember because he's always having to stop and come back to get the ball. That's a fact.
I am fine with the deal . It's not like he is going to lose a step over the next 5 years...that's pretty hard to do when you don't have one in the first place. And he's not a dumb qb. I just question his ability to stay healthy and he has yet to prove to me he can get it done in a close game.
The Pro Bowl is just an All Star game isn't it? It's not necessarily about who had the best season.
What worries me most is in actuality only 3 Bucs got picked up on the snap, and one of those was by the TE. A 4th (#54) gets picked up towards the end of the play but by that point Cam is doomed.
And a special fuck you to Jordan Gross, who not only gets beaten on the play, he decides to pile on Cam at the end.

I remember when Slo was still a Patriots fan. Those were the days.
Got me. Posted on Texans Facebook page today

People on the radio said he weighed the same. Are they lying?

ESPN is saying a source claims Fred Jackson out at least a month.

...dawg, he threw 3 ints and only complete 50% of his passes. He is exactly the reason we lost. You can't expect a young defense to do shit when they're on the field all game because your shithead QB makes reads like a rookie.
In college.
Another failed screen. This time for 83.

Yeah Cam, that shit isnt going to work against the Bucs anymore.
LIAR!
There's only one scenario where I'd root for the Pats, and the NFCN doesn't play the AFCE this season.

He even rocked a Steve Grogan avatar for a while.
Yeah that's huge. Some guys you just can't afford to have hurt
hmm I think if he had thrown it there might have been a pick. There's a DB shadowing the WR who doesn't break towards the line until Cam has started running

It doesn't look like a designed run.

Bucs actually lost their first game last year. And didn't beat the Panthers last year. And didn't have a head coach, offensive or defensive coordinator last year.

But they was youngry last year.
You mean you havent heard of Opblaaskrokodil?
International game killed them. Freeman stuffed himself with so much beef wellington and Stargazy pie all weekend.
3-1! SB Bound!
What do you call that group of guys there stopping the offense from scoring? I do not recognize this phenomenon.
