Re: Week 1: Let's Go!!!!
 

I’m going to remember this and remind ESPN they don’t know shit when the season is over.

[quote=Chico23231;1258233]Interesting depth chart released today by the Skins

JD Mck starter at RB...and the LB lineup is a surprise. SDH is starter over Thomas, KLP is a starter at weak side. Cole listed as a MLB behind bostic[/quote]

I came to note the exact same 2 things.

I think it was Ben Standing on Sheehan's podcast who predicted Bostic and KPL starting, he hesitated between Holcomb and Davis for the 3rd one and gave Davis the nod because of his experience, I'm quite eager to see how our LB corps comes together.

I also think Sweat getting the nod over Kerrigan is worth mentioning.

Re: Week 1: Let's Go!!!!
 

I think the safest bet ... is the UNDER.


But I do think Turner will surprise with some wrinkles, with our newly trimmed down QB.

I'm just so glad to be talking about FOOTBALL.

Broncos’ OLB Von Miller injured a tendon in his ankle on the last play of practice today, and he is expected to need surgery that is likely to end his season, league source tells ESPN.

You can't blame these outlets for saying we will finish 3-13, the team was garbage last yr and honestly other than Chase Young, they haven't upgraded the roster much.. RR should get us 4 wins alone but how is this offense going to score 20 PPG?

I don't know if you remember the end of the season last year when the offense started clicking with Sims, Guice, McLaurin, Haskins being competitive. This team will be in the playoffs.

We have drastically improved our running game (don't care if they are young), more depth on the O-line, Haskins will be much better and that D is going to kick some serious ass!! We might take out an opposing QB a week. I love the fact that CBS sports has us ranked as the worst team at 32.

You must be smoking that Labrador.
Not one proven RB on the team.
The two most consistent OLinemen are gone.
They’ve done a great job stacking the team with athletes and that’s about all I got for optimism. A spread offense should be fun to watch.

On the long run I'd say Scherff is a better asset than Flowers and Penn... but focusing on last season your statement is true.

I still don't quite understand while we haven't signed Penn back on close to vet min deal... I am not at ease with the idea of Geron Christian being our starting LT...

Re: Week 1: Let's Go!!!!

Re: Week 1: Let's Go!!!!
 

Secondary is garbage. Darby, Moreau and Moreland were not good at all. But they can and will hopefully improve. Not impressed w/ Collins either. Can not cover TE's and gets exposed. Another terrible contract by Bruce. Interested to see Apke tough..

Fuller was average at best in KC too so yeah this DB group looks very bad on paper... Ron made the Panthers DB's look good tho so we'll see
