CHUMPS!
Also, jesus fuck Bulaga is going to try and play through the torn ACL?!!
Mankins' problems only multiplied in the playoffs. In the Patriots' postseason win over the Denver Broncos, Mankins tore the medial collateral ligament in his left knee, leading him to play the Super Bowl against the New York Giants with torn ligaments in each knee.
How did I miss this from last year? I think we found Freeman's soulmate:
Conan on TBS: Anna Kendrick's shameful Taco Bell drive-thru secret
"I love Taco Bell...it's like a dirty thing that I love Taco Bell so much...I cannot eat Taco Bell before midnight. It's just so filthy...it has to be under cover of darkness in my car."
"It is a shameful thing...but it's so good! I'll drive out of my way to one with a drive-thru so I don't have to go inside, and then I'll just eat it in the parking lot in my car."

Peelback blocks are now illegal anywhere on the field. Previously, peelback blocks were allowed inside the tackle box. “Illegal peelback blocks are dangerous and have no part in our game,” the video’s narrator says. “Violations will result in 15-yard penalties and potential discipline.”
– Players are reminded that they can be suspended for committing a clear violation of the rules on hits to the head, especially when a player took a clear path to hit an opponent whose position was not affected by another player, and the contact was clearly avoidable. Repeat offenders are particularly subject to suspensions.
– All players with the exception of kickers and punters will be required to wear thigh and knee pads at all times, including in pregame warmups. The first time an official notices a player isn’t wearing pads, he’ll be told to leave the field and put them on. If he comes back on without the pads, it will be a five-yard penalty. If he still doesn’t put the pads on after that, he will be ejected.
– The tuck rule has been eliminated.
– Coaches who throw their challenge flags on plays that were going to be replayed automatically (such as scoring plays and turnovers) will not lose the challenge, but they will lose a timeout or get a 15-yard penalty if they are out of timeouts. (Video of Jim Schwartz throwing his challenge flag was played during this portion of the officiating video.)
– Late hits after the play is over will be strictly penalized.
– Game officials are being reminded to blow their whistles at the end of every play. That may seem obvious, but in the past sometimes officials didn’t bother to blow their whistles
– All players are reminded that they are not allowed to grab opponents’ facemasks — including runners. Runners are not allowed to grab the facemask any more than tacklers are, and runners who grab opponents’ facemasks will be given 15-yard penalties.
– “Sportsmanship is always a point of emphasis,” the narrator of the video said. “Directing verbal abuse at an opponent has no part in our game.” Throwing, spiking, or spinning the ball in the direction of an opponent is a form of taunting that “will not be tolerated.”
You're lucky the Falcons got Peyton when he was new to the offensive system here. If you played him later during last season I see an a lot closer game. I am pretty sure he will make your falcon into fried falcon this year. So fucken delicious. and greasy.Because it's a funny picture in the same vein as Greg's old sad Rodgers avatar.

Kind of confused that they didn't move Newhouse back to the left immediately, but hey, I'm not the coach...they must really see something in Bakhtiari and that's a good thing!GREEN BAY—Mike McCarthy didn’t close the door on Bryan Bulaga’s season.
“We’re still waiting on a medical opinion. Bryan is still hopeful of giving it a go. Nothing has been finalized. He doesn’t even look like he’s injured,” McCarthy told reporters following the Packers’ Tuesday morning practice.
News reports on Monday claimed the Packers’ left tackle sustained a knee injury in Saturday night’s Family Night scrimmage, and that the injury would end his season. According to McCarthy, there is still hope Bulaga could play this season.
“We always do what’s in the best interest of the player. Bryan is fully aware of what it would take to play this season,” McCarthy said.
Meanwhile, wide receiver Jordy Nelson will not return to action in this training camp, the result of a knee injury he had been nursing through the first week of training camp. “Jordy Nelson had a procedure done on his knee (on Monday),” McCarthy said. “He won’t be available for the rest of camp. We hope to have Jordy ready for the start of the season.”
In other injury news, tight end Ryan Taylor and running back Alex Green missed practice on Tuesday due to knee injuries. First-round draft pick Datone Jones was absent from practice due to illness.
Rookie fourth-round draft pick David Bakhtiari replaced Bulaga at left tackle in Tuesday’s practice. Marshall Newhouse remained at right tackle. Meanwhile, the experiment with Don Barclay at center appears to have ended. “He’s very smart,” McCarthy said of Bakhtiari. “He’s had one error in all of training camp. I’m excited about his opportunity.”
“We know what those two guys can do,” McCarthy said of Barclay and Newhouse, who were the Packers’ right and left tackles respectively when last season ended.
“Our young players are going to factor into the makeup of our 53-man roster. Players have to step up and win jobs.”
Desean Jackson working Aqib Talib today at practice.
No tuck rule is pretty nice. So anytime a qb loses the ball being hit it's a fumble now?
Lol like this means anythingDesean Jackson working Aqib Talib today at practice.
BaltimoreLarry!The NFL vid on the crown rule, whoever made it, reads this forum. As the guy says elite, it shows Flacco throwing the football :O
Lol like this means anything
Jeff Phowe said:Brady just completed 20-of-20 in 1st 1-on-1s vs Eagles CBs. Dobson made a 1-handed catch. Boyce 2 grabs
Jeff Phowe said:Amendola turned around a CB three times in one rep.
Djax has looked amazing in camp I wouldnt worry go much about that.But he looked so good against the Pats WRs!
So this basically means that either Talib sucks, or that our WRs suck.
Or both.
It means that Brady is still a God.

Can be painful watching Tim Tebow throw the football.

Revis when healthy can shut anyone downThere aren't many DBs in the league (possibly none) that can cover Djax 1-on-1.

I really don't know any of the rules in football but I've seen this gif posted a lot - can anyone tell me what's going on here? What'd Brady get called on and why is he so incensed?

texans radio just went over the celebration rules. No pointing, taunting, spinning the ball, military salute, sack dances, "choreographed" team celebrations, no props, and some other stuff i forgot. I wonder how much of that they are going to enforce.
So the watt salute after a sack is illegal now?texans radio just went over the celebration rules. No pointing, taunting, spinning the ball, military salute, sack dances, "choreographed" team celebrations, no props, and some other stuff i forgot. I wonder how much of that they are going to enforce.

He doesn't get double teamed every play so why isn't he even a top 15 WR in the league?

No worries, the Texans never score anyways.Not my Mile High Salute.....
It was getting out of hand. Guys were dancing and pointing after every little thing. This isn't soccer where players run to the corner and start crying b/c they scored a goal. Do something good? Go high five your teammates on the way back to the huddle

Dawn, that's true. So dumb.Just seems funny since they advertise the hell out of those unique celebrations in commercials, even their own branded ones.
