I don't know where to put this but this world champion in dedication needs to be mentioned:

Someone asked me how many 20-yard out routes Brees has thrown throughout his career. I didn’t know the answer. I watched all of his throws since 2006 to figure out how many times he’s targeted every route. https://www.theadvocate.com/new_orleans/sports/saints/article_7d0ccf3e-aa4c-11e8-afb1-1b6d8d23cbe8.html?utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter&utm_campaign=user-share … via @theadvocateno

Rams tried to trade for Khalil Mack before Raiders dealt him to Bears.

More here: http://www.latimes.com/sports/rams/la-sp-rams-report-20180905-story.html

Raiders thought Rams pick would be too low in 2019, thus did not accept their offer. Damn, imagine Mack added to that front.....

The rams are weak at 2 spots on their defence: ILB and EDGE - Mack would have literally eliminated an entire weakness of their defence instantly

#Titans DC Dean Pees on Correa. Says he’ll be an OLB: “In Baltimore, we tried to make him a hybrid guy, a jack of all trades. But we don’t need that. We need him to be an outside guy.”


I wonder how long it takes for "Fire Dean Pees" thread to show on Titans boards

so the atlanta falcons not only had to put keanu neal on I/R but out of nowhere deion jones has also now gone to I/R for a foot issue

[JO_75]

Lions Vets are already upset with new Head Coach Matt Patricia. The two complaints by players were the "number of rules put in place" and "how hard he worked them in Camp".

Hahahahaha millionaire athletes complaining about being worked too hard lol.

Gruden: Easier said than done to spark Amari

Speaking Tuesday, Raiders coach Jon Gruden said it was going to be "easier said than done" to spark Amari Cooper going forward.

Cooper had a dreadful Week 1, catching 1-of-3 targets for nine yards while adding a nine-yard rush. Gruden actually did his best to get Cooper going against the Rams, featuring him out of the slot 45.2 percent of the time. That's compared to 21.8 percent a season ago. Derek Carr's struggles aren't helping. Busting Cooper's deepening slump is going to be extra difficult against the Broncos' stout secondary in Week 2.
=======================================

There is an easy fix for that, Gruden - trade him to us for RGIII

Now that’s a fair trade.

Now that’s a fair trade.

It sure is. They targeted Amari 3 times!!!!, their QB sucks and McCarron is a backup. OK, we'll include 4th round pick, too.

They should give us a 4th for taking him off their hands

Might happen - they gave 2nd back to Rams for taking Mack off their hands

Remember when people thought Carr was good hahaha 1 (overrated) decent season doesn’t make a good QB

I'm guilty of this, but apparently if you hit him good once, he really ain't the same QB. Hmm. Keep this in mind when we play OAK later on the season.

You could make a list of Ravens receivers from the last 5 years and I would wager very few of them are on active rosters today. Pretty telling.
