Dont'a Hightower is 1 uuuuh 'chunky' dude at 6"4, 270 pounds. He's even bigger than Brandon Spikes. Gonna be fun to see him play.
Top 15 defense baby!

Can't wait for Matt "The Truth" Flynn to resume his warpath and expose Harbaugh's defense twice over. If I had any lack of humanity I'd :squicken and root for the Seahawks alongside jakncoke as they look to finally avenge their loss in SB 42.
Na, we'll split even. Ponder is improved over last year and we made enough smart moves in the off season to hit a decent level of mediocrity.
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck. I forgot about the LA Rams (lol LA).
Now lets think of funny captions for Brady giving that kid in a wheelchair a autograph.

That might be the most impressive thing Holmes ever does if he's as hated as Gastineau was.

" I see that edible Avatar looking monstrosity, change it!"
In other football related news my team won our Flag football championship against a Pats like undeafeated team. They humiliated us week one by throwing And 1 behind the back style passes but now we are tasting thier Brady like salty tears of defeat.
How much fun is playing defense in flag football?

Fuck yes! This year has to be better then last year.
And then disappear when you guys go 0-4 to finish the year.
That kid could totally take Brady in a fight.
He is also faster than Spikes, and more explosive from the early reports in camp. This is just a taste of things to come on offense
and Defense
It's fun, in flag football you score nearly everytime but you can put pressure on the QB and get a sack or a bad throw and an INT. In our two playoff games we got 5 or 6 INTs which sealed both games for us.

Are people allowed to record at training camp? Pats trying to make up for spygate?
Just like Pats D.

Thanks, don't want people to think I'm that racist even for a German.

I'm so excited for Hightower even more than for Chandler. Lloyd is gonna be pretty great as well, also good to see in that video that McCourty is already in mid-season form :/

Sexier than Tebow.
I want my 2010 McCourty back. Makes no sense to me.
Indeed, they seem to think they're playing flag football sometimes. But I was talking about their motivation, since most people seem to play D for the hits.
mr2xxx's explanation makes sense, though.
I feel the same exact way about Hightower because I have always thought that Jones is a project, and Hightower would make an impact immediately.
The good news is that there is simply no way he is worse than last season. I think he will bounce back, and have a solid year this year. I'm not sure if he will be what he was in 2010, but I think he will be solid this season. I really believe the defense will improve this season. I just want Ras-I to stay healthy to see what he can do. I really can't wait until the preseason games start so I can see what this defense will look like.

If the Pats front 7 can get pressure then the secondary should be a lot better/
But who knows how they would play even if they got pressure.

Perfect offense for Lloyd. He can play the Moss role. Work outside the numbers and vertically. He is a fantastic route runner but he needs time to get open using his double and triple moves. Works great for Pats and Broncos who can pass block. Not so much in STL where they couldn't.
What he is though is a little whiny bitch who will absolutely not take a hard hit. When he catches the ball in traffic he will fall down. Unless he gets behind the defense there will be no YAC. You will begin to laugh at how he always manages to catch the ball while falling down. He's very weird and a malcontent when things don't go his way.
That's crazy talk. Holmes doesn't deserve this hate.
Time for another edition of "Milchjon doesn't know shit":
Has Brady ever had a bad year? Seems to me like he's been at least very good and mostly really great ever since he came into the league. All the years I've been watching, he's been awesome, but what about 2001-2007? Anything I'm missing from looking at the numbers and highlights?
I'm always worried he might have a down year at one point and we're fucked.

Lloyd doesnt have anywhere near the speed that Moss had back in the day. If the Pats plan is to have him go deep and just have Brady throw over the top of the D it is going to be a disaster.
The Gastineau line was from the writer, but Rex is the one who said Santonio was unlikable
He is a marvelous technician. An amazing route runner. He also can jump and has great hands. Two years ago he lead the league in YPC with Kyle Orton and Denver's OL. The OL thing is important. He uses lots of double and triple moves to get open. It takes time, but he gets separation. He will have 1200 yards and 10 TDs this year

Brady has always been good. Selling your soul will do that for you. But yeah, at some point the devil will want his due and he'll either start declining, or just retire to a life of mani-pedis and appletinis.
Oh, you play O for the hits as well
. But there is nothing sweeter than an INT, flag is fun as hell.Alligatorjandro

2009 was probably his "worst" year
The year they got smoked by the Ravens 2009?
I try not to think about that season
This doesn't bother me, but I do worry about diva players when shit doesn't go their way. I'm excited about Lloyd, but I'm trying to keep my expectations low. If he can get something like 700 yards receiving I will be extremely happy.

Fuck if my QBs can be broken down by a few cameras in training camp then this season is already over.
I think its more likely that you know, they just suck. And they're happening to learn an entire new offense with tons of new (and probably not very good) offensive players around them.
I blame Skip Bayless

Fuck youuuuuuuu. You don't want to start up another year of full pages of consecutive Packers posts do you?
We lost our biggest contributor in Bucket head once he realized the Packers were too mainstream. I'll have to start picking up the slack. Greg and ez and brentech have all held it down. Seems like a few were lost in the shuffle though.
The balance seems like it has been restored though. Dirty browns fans have come back again because they only live during the off season when there's hope
Any hype from the Bills training camp?
all i am saying is that ESPN needs to fall back and stop forcing this tebow thing down our throats. They build up people just to capitalize on the negativity that is sure to follow. I dont care if they are good or not, I just cant stand the way they create these issues.
