    What ever happened to the tall WR?

    Pete still likes them, but prefers blockers over them. Pete just let Aaron Rodgers snap up Jimmy Graham, all six foot SEVEN of him, so watch this spot. Graham thinks of himself as a WR, but one his slave masters stuffed into the Tight End position. New Orleans deployed him, IIRC, more as a WR...

    **BREAKING NEWS** No suspensions.......somehow!

    Rolling purposefully onto the center's knees, similarly to what Britt did by accident to Fant???? I doubt that the Players' Association would agree with you. I don't.

    Most Unstoppable Play in Football Is J. Graham iso in the RZ

    Because he takes orders from Pete.

    Most Unstoppable Play in Football Is J. Graham iso in the RZ

    My hunch is that Jimmy is still in Pete's dog house, and has been all along. Set him up to fail for the first two years, and then to succeed in the last year, so that he is arguably not worth keeping, so don't extend him, and let him go as a free agent, but get a higher compensatory pick for...

    We need to re-sign McDougald ASAP

    I have been told we might have as many as twenty new faces next year, so many new things are possible.

    We need to re-sign McDougald ASAP

    Dirty hit to the head last night. Embarrassing. In contrast, Chancellor plays cleanly, to the limits of the rules. Not embarrassing. I hate to see the Seahawks descend to the level of the Al Davis Raiders who coached their DBs to use clothesline tackles, and, doing exactly that, they broke...

    Why did we waive Freeney?

    :sarcasm_on: Right. That extrapolates to only 12 sacks per 16 game season. :sarcasm_off:

    Falcons game assessment ( Short)

    I wonder if the Patriots' operatives are out here letting air out of the balls.

    Pete is going to leave us.....not get fired (Speculation)

    I really don't know. I don't think there is a rule about this, but people have hybridized big cats, and tried out both names: Lion and Tiger become either Liger or Tion, and Liger seems to have won. I think people just go with the nicer sounding name.

    Is Jimmy Graham Soft?

    Yes he is soft. He is a basketball forward playing tight end. A champion rebounding forward. Brees knew how to throw to a rebounder. High where the defenders can not get it. Russell knows this intellectually, but has not practiced that throw enough to put it into muscle memory. He does...

    Who do we sign at RB this week?

    Russell Wilson is currently our best running back. Colin Kapernick is a similar runner, and is arguably close to Russell as as scrambler. Their speed in the 40 was almost identical: he, Mariota, and Russell were inches different in the 40. I heard a rumor that Kap was available, but turned...

    Pete's Press Conference Today

    IIRC, Bennett is playing the most snaps of anyone on the defensive line, which I take to mean that he is our best defensive lineman so far this year. And he is under contract for another year or two. I think he will be good next year too. I do not advocate cutting him next year because he...

    Baldwin is not amused.

    I think he was amused. He turns around and gives him a look, and then immediately Richardson bolts away, leaving Baldwin to think shall I chase him down, and then do whatever. I think Baldwin was amused by Richardson running away from him. Boys will be boys, and Richardson was tempting...

    The new Steve Largent.

    I was told Thursday after the game that Russ is coached to only scan half the field, basically because he is a running quarterback, and does not have time to scan the entire field before he must take off. On the other hand, pocket quarterbacks, meaning those who have more or less dependable...

    Thursday Night Football Worth It?

    I think if they look at it carefully it is already unprofitable. It is nominally profitable because of the ad revenue from Thursday. But I think that it is actually unprofitable when you consider that the Thursday injury toll decreases the quality of the football product being sold to the...

    Sherman injury thread (Officially Out for season)

    I missed some news I guess. How did Sherman know that "at some point in the season that his Achilles would pop."

    Repeating The Worst Play in Football History Today?

    I can not forget, no matter how hard I try, that we lost our second Superbowl in a row attempt, against the Patriots, when Bevell called a slant pattern from our right, into the center, of a mass of defenders, and that pass was intercepted causing us to lose that game. Today, we went for two...

    Ifedi gives Brown #76

    Yeah. I think I read something about that. A friend told me that Pete offered him the job this season of something like "Offensive Quality Control Supervisor". I said "What's that?". He answered basically what you said above that "Communication is important.". Different coaches tend to use...

    Ifedi gives Brown #76

    That's quite possible. Ifedi will l listen to Brown, but Ifedi still needs to execute, and I am hopeful that he will. Beyond that, Cable also said in his press conference: 1. Pocic will benefit playing next to Duane, talking to him, knowing that Duane has his left side covered, etc. 2...
