Johnny Manziel will find a home, I'm sure.

I have an extra ticket tonight in the north end zone. Looking for a ride to the game from Sharpsburg and a ride back after in exchange. The real treat is getting my salty commentary for free. Anyone interested?

Game delayed until 8:30. Good thing I’m only watching the first quarter.

Bizarro World where Dupree and Burns are the high points.

Postby **NTP66** » Sun Aug 18, 2019 8:45 am

Yeah, both of them had really strong games - Burns especially. In other news:

Not quite "Michael Jordan on Bryon Russell" but he did push off a little.

Devin Bush Sr. played against Tom Brady in 2001.

His son likely will suit up against him in a few weeks.

That's nuts.

JuJu on Family Feud tonight.

Oh we have a new Steelers thread? Well I’ll talk about how much the sky cam sucks here too.

Postby **slappybrown** » Sun Aug 25, 2019 9:18 pm

I dig it

The primary bad thing I’ve seen tonite is the Steelers insisting Switzer should touch the ball on offense. Stop it.

#82 for the Steelers got his helmet twisted all around on an egregious facemask. Somewhere, Randle El is beaming an arthritic face.

Defense looked respectable.

Ben threw a couple behind JuJu and Vance before he warmed up.

Rudolph to Washington was beautiful. The bad route for the interception was not.

I’m really unsure with this team. They could easily go 11-5 or 8-8.

Postby **NTP66** » Mon Aug 26, 2019 6:15 am

For a sloppy field, they looked good. On defense, it seemed as though somebody was making a hit quickly, and there weren’t a lot of free runs like we’ve seen in the past. I’m excited about our defense, finally.

I have no idea how bad Tennessee's starting Oline is this year, but if that is the Tuitt and Heyward we are going to see they could be a sneaky great defense this year. Allowing those two to be more disrupters instead of space eaters could translate into more early pressure, which allows the speed and athleticism at LB to clean up.

Postby **Troy Loney** » Mon Aug 26, 2019 7:42 am

It looked like Bud Dupree was getting pressure on the QB. So, must be that the o-line sucks.

Postby **NTP66** » Mon Aug 26, 2019 7:44 am

He had been getting go the QB in the first preseason game, too.

Postby **Troy Loney** » Mon Aug 26, 2019 7:44 am

So Bud Dupree doesn't suck anymore? I don't buy it.

Postby **NTP66** » Mon Aug 26, 2019 7:47 am

Baby steps with him. So far, I haven’t seen him run 10 yards out of his way to get to the QB, which can only be described as progress.

Postby **Troy Loney** » Mon Aug 26, 2019 9:34 am

Is Washington good now?

Postby **willeyeam** » Mon Aug 26, 2019 9:35 am

I just want to say how much I enjoy seeing the roster turnover from some aging headaches to a bunch of likable guys so quickly. I mean the main pieces now besides Ben are..

Conner
Juju
Watt
Vance
Heyward
Edmunds
Bush
Tuitt
Decastro/Foster/Villanueva

I'm more excited for this season than most in recent memory. Especially with all this underdogs to the Browns BS. gtfoh

Postby **Troy Loney** » Mon Aug 26, 2019 9:44 am

Edmunds and Bush seem like good first round picks.

I think someone is going to have to step up big time to play opposite of Juju. That seems to be Washington at this point, but who knows. Also, I think they will need another RB to share the workload with Conner.

Postby **NTP66** » Mon Aug 26, 2019 10:29 am

Washington has looked very good this preseason.

I think they tried to run the wheels off Samuels in that game last night

. Maybe it was the sloppy field but he seemed to be called on every play during a stretch.

I know 'preseason', but they've looked pretty good in all three phases so far. Looking at the schedule, 11-12 wins feels legitimately within reach.

I'm going to the game against the Chargers in October with a few friends. Will be only the second NFL game I've been to, and the first since like 1982 or something.
