Freeney going out killed the team....he was absolutely destroying them that first half.
Freeney went into that game with a bad ankle (high ankle)....the most devastating news we could have had going into the Super Bowl. It even hurt more than hearing "Bob Sanders is injured again" in so many of those mid 2000's games. Freeney was a small truck that had spinning axles. But give him credit for gutting out a few hobbled Super Bowl quarters.

I love the versatility of our linemen. All have experience in other positions. And the depth is also very nice. I'm more hopeful about this group than I have been in a very long time.
i love your enthusiasm and hopefulness. glass half full is needed right now. thx

I don't share your concern about AC. He has been consistently above average. And having Nelson next to him improves him even more. I think Smith and Mewhort will be the right side, I just don't know who gets what role. I'm leaning more towards Smith as tackle
we need guards to be able to get out and down the line. Vunevich whiffed last year on being able to do that (and others)..gotta have guys who can

only hole I'm seeing is RT. 4 out of 5 is a damn good line in my eyes. and we have starter quality players available for the RT position
I worry about Castonzo & Haeg (& Mewhort staying healthly), but i think your analysis of 4 of 5 is close for sure. I'm crossing my fingers that those two are going to be above average for 2018-2019.
LT74Castonzo, Anthony 11/165Burwell, Tyreek SF1762Clark, Le'Raven 16/3
LG56Nelson, Quenton 18/164Glowinski, Mark W/Sea67Vujnovich, Jeremy SF16
C78Kelly, Ryan 16/169Bond, Deyshawn CF17
RG75Mewhort, Jack 14/268SLAUSON, MATT U/LAC72Smith, Braden 18/273

Luck could look like The Rock but a bad shoulder can make you feel like The Scissors. #NEEDOLINEMEN

Don’t let him get to Arizona
i have a feeling they'll shove more money in his face in Arizona than Ballard is willing to part with (to keep the locker room stable). Ballard may also be hesistent due to Breeland being a known weed smoker.

i'd say he's mean & fast enough to play tackle, at least for the coming year (if it's absolutely necessary), then we can move him back to his natural position when we draft a tackle in the 1st round next year (top 10 pick). Center? Uh no. God knows we need Castanzo to hit for the cycle this coming season, jeepers man, let's keep Andrews bobble-head from moving.

So on this magical day when he DOES throw a football, will it be televised? Will Jim Gray be there? I need to know because I'm going to invite friends over, but first I've got to go out and get party favors, a keg or two, chips and some more Orville Redenbacher popcorn.

I wonder if he is still throwing the smaller footballs or where he stands on easing into throwing regularly.
he's eating smaller footballs now. i think he's throwing a real football in his football field sized basement at home. No reporters, no Gregg Doyel, no harassment there. Oh, and no Jim Irsay.

"Couldn't absorb the playbook", "Conduct detrimental to the team, etc."
HOWEVER:
McCain is also learning what it takes to be a professional. In May, he caused a dust-up by saying the league should strip the New England Patriots of their Super Bowl championship due to their alleged involvement in a ball-deflation scheme.

It's an abbreviation for Bottom, because once you've been there, you never want to go back. In other words, it's hell being on the bottom.

We finish in the top five in fewest sacks allowed.
Luck holds on to the ball too long for that to happen.

Which 2018 draft picks will get cut? (final 53 cut). Gotta swallow the ego sometimes.

Need to find a new LT and move Castonzo to the right side. Or, off the roster.
Ouch! have you seen his paycheck. He's getting paid like one of the best
, there's no way to move him without a major ego blast.

Although money is money, what a small chunk of change for these guys with potential for serious physical health damage.
Must suck seeing guys get millions and you're getting pennies compared to them.
well, they're not even on a final roster yet and likely won't be (or almost guaranteed not to be), so getting what they are getting is good for just getting paid to practice and meet real NFL guys. I mean heck, they get to see future hall of famers every day in practice and can probably get those autographs for free.

I think he could take Reich

I think they had quite a bit of confidence that Hernandez was going to be available, i think that took a little bit of the wind out of Ballard's sail (little more subdued at the post draft presser) but he moves on with calculating precision and short-term memory. He went with quantity 2nd day & forward in this draft and the odds should be with us in that we should hit on 4 or 5 of these picks (IMO) out of the eleven in total, which would be just awesome and a home-run in my book.

Oh good, at least Kiper won't be on that network doling out "F" grades to the Colts.

For the 235th pick?! You can't be serious..
yea, that's what I said. another 3rd rounder bites the dust. I realize he didn't "exactly" fit the scheme, but yowza.

I'd say time to back off of Ballard, he has his fingers the very closest to the pulse of the team, how it's constructed, how it was de-constructed, and what weaknesses need to be filled. In fact, I'd say he has an EKG connected. With Reich a close 2nd. IBWT
Edit: after listening to ballard's presser after the 2nd round picks, it sounds like they drafted Braden Smith only for depth...did not have him pegged as a starter right away, interesting to say the least. I would say that's a little mysterious but I keep telling myself the above first paragraph. I would like to think the Jet's trade was purposeful. But I'm always going to wonder, what if with Chubb.

Rumblings are the Chargers are looking to get ahead of Denver to draft Rudolph they got the 48th but think they would need to sweeten the deal with something on top of their 4th.
there's going to be some wheeling and dealing. doubt we get Landry, he'll be gone, but we will get someone worthy, very, very worthy with our first 2nd round pick. IBWT

I feel like he's just setting it up so that he can hate on the Colts with that last line. And we'll redo the whole Bill Tobin/Mel Kiper Colts rivalry.
yes, that's exactly what he is doing. you watch after its all over Saturday, that he goes with an article on ESPN on Sunday and will grade us a D+

hart could have been stunning to watch, instead the ACL ended any hope of that (or whatever severe career threatening injury it was...pretty sure though it was an acl).....this guy had star written all over him.
