Clowney refused to do interview as he was walking off the field. Maybe he would have gotten injured talking to us.

Bet its because he knows the casino question would be asked.

Also told one-game suspension possible for Manny Lawson for domestic violence incident.

So Bills have

Shaq Lawson out until potentially October
Manny Lawson (no relation, Shaq's replacement) out week 1
Dareus out four games
Aaron Williams out indefinitely due to concussion
Ragland out for year
IK (replacement for Lawsons) out for year

Clowney will have more sacks than Watt this year. And yes jj will stay healthy and be his usual self.

OB when asked if Clowney is expected to play Saturday "Sure"

Jayson Braddock ‏@JaysonBraddock 24m24 minutes ago
OB says that Clowney did more than expected today. Was only expected to do individuals, did multiple teams work

Sounds like someone voiced their displeasure about a recent trip to Dogshit.

Good news for the Honey Badger...

The #AZCardinals have taken DB Tyrann Mathieu off of the PUP list, meaning he's passed his physical. A big step after a torn ACL

I'd like six but we have other spots that need attention, I feel we hang with 4 tight ends this year. Lucky has been an on the edge player but I liked his work as a returner last season, gave some spark when he actually brought the ball in, and tonight I think he solidified his niche. I'd like Andy Jones to step up since his leaping ability is a bigger help in the end zone than Street who is an unreliable mess.

Replying because of the recent news about Hanna.

Looks like 3 TEs now unless Gathers makes the roster. Might carry 6 receivers after all. Wonder how long Hanna will be out.

Why does it often feel like it's Safeties that are most universally revered? No one hates Mathieu or Ed Reed or Polamalu...

Is it because they have the best highlight reels?

Well, all those guys generally managed to avoid saying/doing dumb shit, so that helps.

I think it's more than that. I think it's due to the position as well, big play potential plus freedom/versatility plus the type of athleticism can just make a good safety more fun to watch than most.

There's more of a "he can do it all!" potential to it than to most other positions

There is a huge quality gap between the best safeties and the worst safeties in the league, teams are just envious of teams with great safeties.

Also safeties seem to rarely get blamed for mistakes by casuals, they think it's always a CB being burned. Like Polamalu late in his career when he was just running around like a chicken with its head cut off seemed to still be really popular with Steelers fans.

The responses to that Tweet.....Twitter really needs to institute some sort of IQ check to register.

Same as comments for videos on Youtube the NFL put up on their channel. You have to wonder how many are trolls or which ones use ESPN or stats to think [x] player is any good.

See, Rueben Randle. "Ahh! If he's so bad why did he have 800+ yards last season and 8 TD's, sit on this L"
