    Thoughts after rewatching Dallas preseason game - 2nd half

    Wilson kept the offense on schedule as a 2nd stringer in 2012. BJ Daniels looked fantastic when he played at QB in 2015. Boykin has these little clues that tell you he could be Tyrod Taylor 2.0, that's why I like him. But in terms of his actual performance through three games, he's lived and...

    RB keepers my thoughts after 3 games

    Collins has been significantly outplayed by Farmer and Pope. In fact, Farmer has been seeing reps sooner in games than Collins has. I think it is very much a three way race between those guys at this point. I think Collins will have a nice 4th preseason game and seal the deal now that his...

    RB keepers my thoughts after 3 games

    Well we know that C-Mike can make the big play, in fact the rap on him in the past was that he was only looking for the big ones and didn't focus on the little things. Now he's 180 degrees the other way. I also think his manic nature tends to make him an extreme RB one way or the other. Right...

    RB keepers my thoughts after 3 games

    You can make the team in camp and lose your job in preseason, which Collins is in danger of doing. I think Collins will do well in the 4th preseason game and make it. But if he stinks, I'd be surprised if Seattle kept him.

    RB Brooks waived

    He's not built to play RB. If he gets another look somewhere, it should be at a different position.

    Just watched the game AGAIN and found the Oline

    Britt has always been a force in the run game, but atrocious in protection. He's definitely improved his ability to anchor and it should be mentioned that quality guard play will help a center significantly. That said he's had a pretty easy test this preseason against mostly vanilla defense...

    Browner cut/ Lewis shopped/ Siliga to IR

    Seattle IR'd Helfet then reversed course with an injury settlement a few days later. For all the same reasons as Helfet, it's likely they'll do the same with Siliga in a few days. Clemons, browner, and Siliga all seemed like pretty weak signings at the time. Can't say that the results have...

    Which Rookie WR Breaks Out?

    Sterling Shepard, Tajae Sharpe and Michael Thomas are in the best position to have fast starts as rookies. I kinda doubt that any of them will end up as top 24 WRs, but they can be good enough to help their teams, the same way a rookie Doug Baldwin did.

    Which Rookie WR Breaks Out?

    Kevin White is essentially playing a redshirt freshman season this year. He'll know the playbook a little better than a true rookie, but the difference is fairly minor. Receivers usually need reps to build rapport with their QBs. White only has 3 catches for 12 yards this preseason. Chicago...

    I'm picking 2nd

    I'd probably take OBJ just to be safe. But the temptation to take Elliot would be very real.

    My team: Could use some thoughts

    I'm starting to cool on Russell Wilson as a top fantasy QB. The spread looks and 3 WR sets that made him so dominant last year have been rolled back this preseason. Seattle is heading back to their roots and going more inline formation, run heavy stuff. And the umpteen bubble screens Bevell...

    Just drafted.

    I like this team. I've watched enough of Bortles this preseason to think that he is finally starting to play up to his stats. Charles/Ware is arguably the biggest RB steal of the draft. Allen Robinson is a stud. Anderson is looking good. Watkins is risky, but he's insured by Demaryius and...

    First Round Of Cuts

    I would love to see Seattle use the 4th preseason game as an audition for Austin Davis. They're going to need to give the reps to somebody, and Heaps has zero chance of making the roster. Shocked to see Knighton go. Was he hurt?

    Exotic Smashmouth, is it for real?

    It's preseason, but consider: DeMarco Murray: 19 rushes, 159 yards, 2 TD. 8.37 yards per carry. Derrick Henry: 27 rushes, 154 yards, 2 TD. 5.70 yards per carry. Even if you took Murray's 71 yard run away, he'd still be averaging 4.89 yards per carry. Henry's longest carry has been for...

    Thoughts after rewatching Dallas preseason game - 1st half

    I understand what a constraint play is. Seattle ran for a whopping 22 yards in the first half while doing them. Dallas never adjusted their defense to react to the bubble screen calls. Why would they? Two yards per play helps you off the field. And like I said before, if you run this play...

    Thoughts after rewatching Dallas preseason game - 1st half

    I don't know if I buy into this narrative all that much. Why should a defense go take defenders out of the box to prevent a play that is actively helping them get off the field? The constraint play theory makes sense if these screens are getting 5-10 yards a pop. But not when they are getting...

    Thoughts after rewatching Dallas preseason game - 1st half

    My issue isn't with the tactics in a vacuum, it's with the personnel. If you have Tyler Eifert leading the way for AJ Green, you'll have the size advantage to make it an easy 5-10 yard play until you force the defense to commit to stopping it. If you have Paul Richardson lead blocking for Doug...

    Thoughts after rewatching Dallas preseason game - 1st half

    In the past couple years, Seattle has had some struggles against teams with upper tier OL. Jerry didn't know that when he was drafting his OL though.

    Cardinals vs Texans. Preseason

    My favorite player in the 2013 draft, lol.

    Seriously, what's with all the Dak Prescott love?

    Any reason he shouldn't be getting love? The guy has been pretty remarkable.
