man. quick dominating and taking all the reps with the first team??? wow. this is beginning to sound like a lot more than just hype. i had completely given up on the guy…

yeah it would be huge. and if one or two other receivers can step up besides quick, this offense suddenly becomes real dangerous given the potential of the running game.

most won’t agree. but i think this offense is going to be really fun to watch this season. very physical. with some big plays in between. there’s just a really good mix of talent on offense. of course i say that every year.

camp reports have not sounded good on this guy. i’m surprised. i was convinced he’d be able to make it. early times though.

thanks for the report. that was great. reading good things about the receivers and defensive backs. quick in particular. although i’d like to see them do it against other teams.

don’t like what i read about jones. i’m also wondering how long it takes robinson exactly to get acclimated to the nfl. sounds like he is having some struggles there early.

shoot. could britt be having a positive influence on this young wr corps????

i especially like the comments on ogletree and mcdonald. williams, as we all know, is a perfectionist. he’s hard on his players. so for him to have positive thoughts on those two. that says a lot. especially given their versatility and williams’ love of the hybrid players. my guess is those two are gonna be flying around making plays. the defensive line can only get better. only thing left is finding a free safety among that group. then this defense could be complete.

top 5? wow. that would be beautiful to see. especially combined with a top 5 rushing offense?

well. police supposedly have footage of rice knocking her unconscious. that wasn’t released to the public.

i was also angry at how harbaugh responded to this whole thing.

“It’s not a big deal, it’s just part of the process,” Harbaugh said, via ESPN. “There are consequences when you make a mistake like that. I stand behind Ray. He’s a heck of a guy. He’s done everything right since. He makes a mistake, alright? He’s going to have to pay a consequence. I think that’s good for kids to understand it works that way. That’s how it works, that’s how it should be.”

maybe it should be a big deal. maybe i don’t know all the facts.

just not acceptable to me that it was a 2 game suspension. i realize people make mistakes. but in this case. i gotta agree with wv. guys are getting hammered for smoking pot and then this guy gets away with a 2 game suspension?

i’m appalled.

i didn’t have any respect for goodell before. nothing’s changed my mind after this.

From what I have heard Gregg Williams loves above all others Alec Ogletree and TJ McDonald.

tee hee!!! that’s what i was hoping to read.

donald sounds like a keeper for sure. thanks for the report!

i’m getting the new orleans saints roundtable…

yeah the secondary is the biggest question for me on defense. i’d try to pick out one player as being critical, but i think they all need to step up. jenkins, johnson, mcdonald, and joyner are the four most important i think. but i figure williams should be the right coach to bring this secondary together.

that’s gonna be hard. i think robinson has a slight advantage because he’ll be playing left guard. even though it’ll be a position change, i think he’ll have less responsibilities than if he was at left tackle. the running game also has the makings of something special.

watkins, on the other hand, is playing a position with a big learning curve. on a team that will be expecting him to make plays.

i’d have to give the advantage to robinson although i’d also be cutting a lot of slack for watkins given the circumstances.

in some ways bradford is the perfect qb for fisher.

i’m not even sure fisher would know what to do with a great qb. if the rams are to go to the playoffs under fisher it will be lead by the defense and the running game.

so let’s hope that is in order. and bradford should be good enough to help this team win.

yeah. long and laurinaitis for sure. i think joyner will eventually be one. for sure. how could he not?

on offense? no clue. i don’t think bradford will ever be a leader. i think he’ll be an effective qb. but not a leader.

zac stacy? i could see it. not sure yet. but i could see it. i could see greg robinson becoming a leader. not a vocal leader. but he just comes across as a guy of such high character and work ethic and ability that i think he could eventually be a leader.

well what i think happens is that a bunch of young talented players start to figure it out at about the same time. stacy, austin, bailey, robinson, donald, brockers, ogletree, mcdonald, jenkins, and johnson are all young guys who could have very memorable seasons this year.

they haven’t done anything yet. but it could all happen at the same time. that’s pretty awesome when you think about it. kind of like what happened to the niners before.

hopefully this is the year.
