What's up with Jammal Brown?

There is no sign of right tackle Jammal Brown, who on Sunday signed a five-year, $27.5 million contract. Also not in sight is undrafted free agent linebacker Kyle O’Donnell, a Liberty University product.

Brown was attending a personal matter...at a funeral

Brown was attending a personal matter...at a funeral

Good enough...

The team drew a boisterous crowd that “Ooooo’ed” “Ahhh’ed” and “boooo’ed” plays throughout the day. Some fans even scolded quarterbacks for bad throws and receivers for drops - as if the miscues really mattered.

Really guys? Really? Please tell me no one from here is among the idiots Mike Jones is referring to in this quote.

I don't see why fans root for one side over the over. It's a win win. If the offense has a bad day, that meant the defense had a good day. If the defense had a bad day, it means the offense had a good one. There's a winner on every play lol.

In defense of Hightower's, fumbling problem, (saw it once), his fumbles at today's camp can be corrected. He fumbled once when I was watching, but I think his fumbling is a bit overstated. He's a hard runner, who fights for every yard, so it's gonna happen, it's football. From what I saw, Hightower has a little bit of everything (vision, power, deceptive speed, and patience to find the hole). And He's DURABLE...can't say about Torain. Rather have a RB who can at least contribute, than a glass made RB who can never stay healthy.

Gotta love the sideline coaches :doh:

John Beck hurt his groin but Shanny doesn't expect it to last

See why there are those who would like to see training camp far removed from some of these local idiots. Not all...but some of them only serve as distractions.

I think he's still rehabbing a bit and taking things slow. It's a long season, so I'd much rather him get healed up and ready to go.

Would anyone be surprised if we fielded a top 10 defense this year?

Top 10? Yeah, pleasantly surprised. Top 15? Nope, that's my expectation.
