You have Harbs and Baalke. They haven't found their QB yet, but when they do, they'll be immediate contenders
I was at the game last night. The only chance we got to sing the fight song was at the end of the 3rd. Not because of a TD though.
Bess should be our #1 or #2 WR while Hartline heals. Instead, Philbin is keeping him in the slot and starting two guys who can't get separation or catch the damn ball. I was yelling so loud at Naanee, from the first dropped pass.
Fasano was very disappointing. I hope it's just rust, because he was very reliable last season. No excuse for those drops, because it wasn't even raining.
I said it before and I'll say it again...Philbin needs to start Vontae Davis. There is no excuse for that bum Marshall starting ahead of him, NONE. Marshall couldn't cover his own shadow, whereas Tae was one of our best cover guys last season. Hell, the last 2 seasons. I was fussing all during the first half at how Philbin was allowing our defense to be compromised by playing that turd so long. There was a deep pass by ATL that should easily have been picked off because it was underthrown into double-coverage. I can forgive the safety for watching the man, since he'd already blown by Marshall, but Marshall didn't even make the play on the ball despite trailing his man. Unforgivable.
This season is gonna suck hard. I'm really not happy about our chances. PEACE.

we are already contenders. or did you mean dynasty contenders when we find a real QB?
You aren't SB contenders this year. But you will be if Harbs can find his guy. I'm surprised they didn't draft anyone. Don't think Kapernick will ever be an every down starter

if you say so!
I'm going to bed. Peyton will always be elite, history has already been written. The question is now can he become legendary and end his career like John did.

Our RB Ryan Williams did his patella in week 2 pre season last year and returned week 2 pre season this year. Guess the recovery time is an individual thing

Must be the difference between a tear and a rupture. Both of Cadillacs injuries were ruptures.
Also, Carson Palmer continues to be an interception machine. Crazy as it sounds, the Raiders may be better off with Pryor. Maybe they should trade to get Gradkowski back
We've got the triple bobby lane- , post-Barry sanders- , and madden-curses this year.
I expect 52 of 53 current roster holders to be on IR by week 10.
The bucs D really smashed that Super Bowl up though. They were legendary in the game that counted.

You're a horrible couch GM/fan. Leinhart is a better QB right now than Pryor and I like Pryor. Palmer is a gunslinger who makes idiotic plays sometimes. But he can make every throw you ask of him. Let him get through the wrinkles of the offense, for fuck sakes it is preseason. He also doesn't have his starting center. Alex Parson has been getting blown up every single snap, Lil Wiz needs to be back week 1 or else we're in trouble.

He never seemed to lose yardage, which was nice. Looked like he broke a tackle or two and carried some defenders, which is good since he's supposed to be our bruiser of a back. More will be nice though.

You post this almost any other week and you would probably be right, but you did it on the night he went 3/5, 137 yards, 2 passing TD's, and 90 yards rushing on 5 carries with a rushing TD.......good call!! lol

Damn Kugler curse strikes again. Hope he's a fast healer.
God fucking damnit, fuck our cursed offensive line. This is such fucking bullshit... Mike Adams better step the fuck up and stock sucking.

He can reliable connect with every player on defense. Palmer has a well documented history of throwing a shit load of interceptions.
And dont EVER call me a Raiders fan again. I may not be tall, or rich, or particularly good looking, but damit at least I'm not a Raiders fan!
Pretty much thats how I feel.
I know the offense will beast and the defense will struggle. Just get the season started before any more players go down.

It's all a trick masterminded by Peyton so that the 49ers will be less prepared. He's going to score at least 50 points in the first quarter.

Nothing to kill you over. I think most Giants fans are realistic about Eli despite popular belief and the media stories about him since the Super Bowl win. I think he flashes elite talent/skill. Recently more often than not. I think he has elite pocket presence and when the game is on the line he shows the poise/awareness/ability that puts him in a class alongside the best in the game. I mean when you have a QB that can make this throw:Truly101 said:

Along with that though, you still have inconsistencies. He's one season removed from throwing 25 interceptions and he still displays a propensity for some boneheaded decision making at times. I cringe when he throws off his back foot. He has the arm strength to get away with it at times but it leads to bad things more than I care for.
I want to see Eli play at the level he did in 2009 and 2011 from here on out. If he can maintain that consistency and keep the interceptions to a minimum then I don't think there's any question of his being "elite".
One of those teams had an elite defense, a terrible QB and a shit ton of help from the refs!
He was elite enough to destory the Niners franchise for a decade! You guys QUIT at halftime because of him!
More telling is, how many QB's would be more afraid to make the throw? The Ryan's of the world would turtle up or check down for a 3 yard gain.

I'll be happy if the Falcons just get the wild card and lose badly again. Maybe then theyll cut Ryan and Fire Smittyball. I am worried tho because blank wants a new stadium so we might win A game. The Braves need a retractable roof stadium, not the Falcons.
Watched all of first team's drives. Made a few gifs. First two are just comical
Early in the game. Bradford's a bum, but I can understand how why he gets so flaky. He thinks he has this picked up, but the RT just doesn't block the right man.
Next possession, first pass play. Just immediate penetration allowed by LG. Kind of lazy with his feet. Takes too long. Can't step into throw. Sails
Final possession. Back shoulder throw. Should have been lower, but the WRs have to catch these. 5 passes not caught that WRs got two hands on.
Pettis catches that and it's an okay evening. Instead they get to 4th down where Bradford makes an awful throw. But alas, he'll always be limited

Using Gamepass to watch the Rams/Cowboys game, I was hoping to get some sense of how the Cowboys offense performed, but all I got was an awareness of just how awful the Rams secondary was.
It was amusing watching Marshall Faulk point out the manifold ways in which Janoris Jenkins blows his cover assignments. And that first .gif is just embarrassing.

Not a Jellyfish
but I am a sheep
I think it will be the Cards hands down, Bradford will win a shootout or two against other kinda shitty teams.
Hell the Cards are stilling trying to find what they are "good at", here is a clue...it isn't football.

Can't wait for people to start eating those words
I'd rather eat your QBs' turnovers because then I'd never have to worry about food again.
