Yea, but the article is far from being very informative or definitive.
I think we still dont know exactly whats going on.

Re: The Defense Only Thread

Eye memory and visual memory are two terms for the same thing. Visual memory is recollected information about what a person has seen. It involves both the mental storage of such information and the ability to retrieve it. It can be short term, lasting only fractions of a second, or long term, lasting decades. It is separate and distinct from other types of memory, such as auditory memory. The process by which visual memory works is not fully understood.

In any event, Cravens is not being silly at all. My grandson lost most of his short term memory and could only write backwards due to a severe concussion, until he recovered. As I recall, his recovery took 6-8 weeks. There are many ways that a person can be disabled in either the short term or the long term by a concussion, depending on the severity of the concussion and the area of the brain affected.

BTW, I'm not trying to play a doctor on the internet. I googled "eye memory" for the definition and I experienced the part about my grandson.

Re: The Defense Only Thread

Check out the directional averages. Offenses running to their left, our defense's right are averaging almost a full 2 yards per carry over any other direction.

Any ideas why?

When I first saw his video, I googled eye memory. I didn't really see anything- maybe I spelled something wrong? Not sure, because after I read your post I googled it again and saw a lot of information. Yeah same here hope your Grandson made a full recovery.

I missed most of the Ravens game. Did Cullen Jenkins play?

I'm still holding out hope that he helps to tighten up the interior a little
