preseason football is upon us

[uh-oh]

this is one of my favorite times of the year. i get to watch my entire roster see live action.

what are the storylines for your teams?

ravens

we get to see the o-line get some real reps, and see who is gonna step up at right tackle, as well as if the center we got is as good as he's looked in practice

we get to see the running backs, pierce is a known goon, but the rookie talifarro can see some good reps

get to see the wide receivers and see who's gonna make the cut. steve smith, torrey smith, jacoby jones and marlon brown seem like locks, but they will keep at least 1 more guy, and the competition is deep. its amazing how much difference a year makes

defensively get to see the butkus award winner back there, as well as last years second round pick to see who will start beside darryl smith.

the revamped d-line, minus the giant white dude we drafted who tore his acl.

the safety competition im hyped for, elam is probably a lock at SS but FS is wide open between darian stewart and the kid we got from florida state

and the corner competition should be healthy as well, behind webby and jimmy smith

HYPE

i'm also interested in some non ravens storylines

particularly manziel, and him failing terribly

HYPE

[ill nik-A]

If Tannehill gets some blocking... Prepare

[Diode]

i don't have much hope for the panthers given they have no receivers and one of the best defensive players in the league will be out for awhile after puliing a ray rice

theyll still be better than the cowboys tho

and i dont have to pay for sunday ticket to watch them

so theres that

[Adonis]

Raiders story line is interesting

No matter what we do were a lock for last in our division

I do love what here from Mack though, and my sio Moore is a beast.

Don't like schaub but he's or best shot to at least win a game or two. Interested to see what derrick car can do in preseason, though I hope he gets side first string reps though.

We are actually really deep and young at wide receiver to. Them boys good

[Strikta]

I'm looking forward to seeing how our oline stacks up.

Trying to see what Amerson looking like at corner in year 2.. also, trying to see Rambo's progression in year 2.

Jerry Rice Jr. battling to make a spot at receiver shall be interesting as well.

But all in all I just want everyone to get the reps they need so coach can put together the best mob on Sundays. Praying nobody gets injured as well.

Oh yeah.... hoping the Pats ain't on no cheatin shit.. we're sharing camp w/ em for a bit.. play em on Thursday.

[Certain]

The Bengals' season in one sentence: Andy Dalton will continue to find new ways to bring down one of the five most talented rosters in the NFL.

[King Ra.]

Diode Kelvin Benjamin will be a beast.

I want to see how all the rookies do. A lot of them look like they will be stars in this league.

[DLB]

colts - playoffs and more.

luck gon have one of the best seasons for QBs this yr

He kinda needs a run game for that too happen

Obviously getting the wiley ol' vet back at WR helps, but dude is gotta be over thirty right? Brazil is gone and he looked good last year. Nicks is also in the downside of his career, so not only does he need RB's to step up, but he needs WR to as well.

[Half Wit It]

Jaguars and Niners.
SF is clearly stacked. Should be headed right back to Conference Championship.
Hope Blake Bortles and receiving core can turn Jaguars into an explosive offense.

[Adonis]

Niners have lost 7 people, three for the year, in 4 days. Some of these guys were going to be integral pieces.

Jaguars aren't good, sorry. Bortles is not a god send, even p. Manning struggled rookie year. They have a less than average receiving core for sure. Have an unknown at rb and defensively aren't going to win games.

[wolfdick]

The Bengals' season in one sentence: Andy Dalton will continue to find new ways to bring down one of the five most talented rosters in the NFL.

depending on the offensive coordinators use of him possibly. if he doesn't throw, he doesn't lose. Run game will be beastly with Jeremy hill an gio back there, I also hear sanu may throw a few more this year

[uh-oh]

any of you gonna watch the hall of fame game?

i can see the stadium/hall of fame from my window

but instead of being there watching two terrible new york teams i am high as fuck eating pizza rolls in a beater

[Meth]

I would but I'm working

Good game so far. And I usually hate the HOF game.
Maybe I just miss football.

miss the first quarter and a half

nassib looked a lot better than last year

giants will prob need him when eli gets his soul intercepted by the entire nfl

[Certain]

http://ftw.usatoday.com/2014/08/eli-manning-fumbles-nfl-preseason

yes.

so good.

delicious.

even with a west coast passing scheme he still manages to turn the ball over.

[DLB]

like TY and Darick Rogers don't exist.

TY and Darick were downfield gods when we needed it. plus, if we got our two TE game of Fleener/Allen in full effect, we don't really need an RB. we been running offense without a sufficient RB since forever.(i.e Peyton Manning and two yard per gain aka Hoeseph Addai)

[jilti]

Pittsburgh Steelers all day, every day!!!!!!

[Fart]

only thing my hawks can really improve on this season is penalties.

lol @ nfl making an LOB rule this yr. that's how you know you're the greatest

but yea we were the most or 2nd most penalized team in the nfl and still won it all. imagine if we committed even 50% less penalties...16-0.

[uh-oh]

what lob rule??

[Certain]

It stands for "Legion of Boom," what the Seahawks defense called itself. They're just reinforcing the rules against line-of-scrimmage contact.

[uh-oh]

yea i was wondering what rule was associated with them my bad i didnt mean like lob, like lobbing the ball

now that i read that back i can see the confusion lol

im HIGH

hard knocks tomorrow night

is tom sparks still around? bet he's hype

[Fart]

yeah they are going to be stricter with contact this season

[Meth]

Tom sparks is fgt

[Strikta]

Tom Sparks cool as a fan.

But yo, just really found out today Jerry Rice jr. is done.

I really just want to see our defense & ST do alot better tbh.

do you think Jackson will emerge as the #1? assuming robert gump III is back to form?

[uh-oh]

ravens 49ers bout to go down

hype as fuck

wanna see these second and third stringers

also wanna see what the rough early version of our revamped oline looks like with kubiaks system and 100 percent zone blocking

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Fart]

literally laughing so hard at the niners right now. nice drive by baltimore

[Certain]

If the Ravens are better this year than they were last year, I'd give like 80% of the credit to Gary Kubiak. Hiring him was the best thing they did in the offseason.

[Fart]

agreed

[uh-oh]

remember that our o-line was abysmal

and remember our offensive weapons were so depleted that we were starting an undrafted wr and a 567 year old dallas clark

flacco had no one to throw it to, and no time to decide who to throw it to

people talk about flaccos bad year and tend to forget he was alone on that offense with torrey smith, who was always flaccos like 3rd choice.

the abysmal o line not only meant pressure on flacco, but also the worst season running the ball in recent memory for the ravens. there were no holes ever.

this year everyone is healthy, we cut dead weight, and added a reliable proven wr into the mix, as well as another tight end that is perfect for flacco who favors the big guys over the middle

we didnt have pitta, now we have two basically. we didnt have jacoby, now he's back with steve smith, and torrey so now torrey is relieved of being everything and can ball out

if they stay healthy they are the same ravens they always were

but with kubiaks offense it should be much more efficient as its perfect for the skill sets of the players already there. i'm sick of offensive coordinators putting flacco in the gun and wit spread offenses on first down.

give the ravens there running identity back, and let flacco dip it over the middle off play action, with the occasional bomb to stretch em out

***AWW

[Blanco Bishop]

Simmer down.

[uh-oh]

yall just got merkkkkedddddddd

that was an all around embarassment. i wish the 49ers would have put up some form of effort tho its hard to evaluate who's good on my team when they are all given good plays on a platter

i like taliaferro tho, been hearing forsett is the man in practice but taliafero shined. north and south. no pretty shit

also carlos hyde is gonna be a problem. other than kaeps scrn pass he was your whole "1st" string offense. gore entering old man land

[YDK]

Dalton looked like he was worth the contract in one series. Campbell as usual was trash

[Blanco Bishop]

Who cares about preseason?

Ravens should win their div easy though imo

[uh-oh]

its just preseason it aint that serious im just fucking with you yo

but like i said hyde looked good. i wish him the best coming out of OSU. its always interesting with runningbacks more than anyone seeing how they put it together in the nfl. i figured hyde had a shot since he was big and dope in college, but you never know till they play

he looked like he's gonna be nice

[Blanco Bishop]

Fo sho dude.

Just bummed that Hunter got hurt n L James haven't panned out.

I was geeked when we drafted James but hasn't been what i thought he could of been.

[YDK]

Ravens should win their div easy though imo

lol easily?

[dyedinthewool]

Oh football :) ♡♡♡ I'm so ready for cold nights and leggings and socks of all kinds on a comfy couch in front of a flat and gummie worms. Sour ones. Except for toe socks. Ew.


Dallas, we got this.

[Tom Sparks]

They hv trent Richardson.
Hopefully they utilize him more this yr.

But go ravens

How you gonna say Go Ravens and hope Trent is good????????????? This is called "identity crises"


On the real though, Trent has a shot. He's a plodder. Colts don't have the best Pass protection but CAN push the line and Trent could average a decent 3.5 yrds or so. He won't catch passes and will lose Goal Line opportunities to Luck via Pass or Rush, but he can thrive here if he is good. I don't think he will because I see him in need of a stellar O line in order to rack up yards. But as long as he can get 3-4 yrds a rush for Luck to do the rest they're ok.

He won't be good in Fantasy if thats what youre eluding too. He won't rack up TD.s which is why he blew up year one. Luck will vulture half his Goal line TDs alone not including what Bradshaw and Company will steal from him

Lol. I like his play. If Cleveland didn't get new coaches & clean house he would've had better opportunities to showcase his talents.

I disagree w.the o line comments. Trent is a strong runner. Think eddie lacy, he's very difficult to take dwn & seems to always fall fwrd si if the ball is in his hands you tend to get positive yards. They only kept him one yr before indy trade. Indy didn't use him much due to all of the "promising" rb on their roster. I personally didn't think any were better than trent but thas a personal opinion.

If indy plays him, I feel it will take a lot off luck shoulder allowing him better chances to release the ball given the o line block improves a little more for him.

[uh-oh]

richardson didnt impress me. his best run was for like 8 yards when he blew that eagles dudes helmet off

i dunno what he did in indy tho i think he averaged under 3 yards a carry

ray rice had 3.1 and looked ABYSMAL so richardson mustve been terribleeeeee

[Meth]

Good lines make good runners

[Fart]

Indy's o-line isn't the reason Trent looks slow AS FUCK

he's trash, a dud. he'll never be good
his rookie year was bloated with goaline carries.
