New oral history. Andy Reid runs the NFL’s most difficult camp.

Every year, many players, drenched in sweat & near extreme exhaustion, ask a version of the same question: Why does Reid make camp this hard?

The answers come through experience. https://t.co/XQnHgYANeY

— Showed more technique than you see from a lot of rookie edge guys with much bigger names

— Went to Ferris State, and who gives a damn? This guy is a PLAYER. Titans made out like banditos here. pic.twitter.com/O3kLuhTIFh

With the season set to begin, I examined some lingering offseason issues now bleeding into the season:
-the discontent of Jonathan Taylor and Chris Jones;
-whither Joe Burrow's contract extension?;
-the blundering end of Trey Lance in SF.
Settle in:

NFL teams looking for a good coach in 2024 should be clamoring for Deion Sanders. https://t.co/wRV8uzh2xH

The @Lions just dropped the curtain on Aaron Rodgers career in Green Bay and ruined the Chiefs banner raising night by handing Patrick Mahomes the first-season opening loss of his life in back-to-back games. pic.twitter.com/JaGrDzaqCD

Source: MRI revealed a torn Achilles for Aaron Rodgers. His season is done.

This is the closest look at Aaron Rodgers’ Achilles injury. I’m gutted for him.

the Browns defense had an average time to pressure of 1.95 seconds against the Bengals in Week 1.

this is tied for the 6th-fastest average time to pressure by a defense in a single game since the start of the 2019 season, via @TruMediaSports.

The Jets, man. I would hate to be a Jets fan.

They are in worse shape right now than Seattle. Like Seattle, they entered with season with high hopes, and Rodgers is gone. The final piece to their puzzle was wiped out on the opening drive. A 40-year old QB with a 2-year $75 million guaranteed deal. He might be ready for next year. Maybe. He’s 40. Achilles. It’s bad.

For myself, part of me is giggling, but part of me misses the storyline that everyone just got robbed of. Aaron Rodgers will be just fine, but his opportunity to “pull a Brady” is gone.

And the Jets gave up a 1st and two 2nds, and something else for him. Sux to be a J-E-T-S fan.

Wasn’t it ex-Ram, Leonard Cohen — you know, the author of “Hallelujah!” — the edge who did him in?

I’m not a fan of Rodgers. He’s a jerk, IMO, especially when it came to the pandemic. But I didn’t want to see him go out in the first game.

Lotsa talking heads were saying the Jets might call the Rams again about Stafford. With MS playing so well this past Sunday, the price has likely gone up.

Would you trade Stafford to the Jets at this point?

If the Jets offered Sauce Gardner, Jermaine Johnson, and their 1st next year, I think I would.
