Of course not. When has he broken any rules?
TOM BRADY QB, TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS
The NFL ruled that Tom Brady did not violate league rules by visiting Buccaneers OC Byron Leftwich.
Last week, Brady made headlines by wondering into the wrong house down in Florida while on his way to Leftwich's place. Brady eventually tracked down his offensive coordinator, had a "brief visit", and went home with the playbook. The NFL investigated the visit to see if it broke its strict guidelines about player and coach meetings, but everything checked out. We can all forget this ever happened despite some around the league expecting "stern discipline".

He’s about as perfect as you can be LOL.

Having a young generational QB really amped up my anxiety because we've all seen guys like Rodgers and Luck fall apart trying to carry bum offenses, Im glad we have EDC.
Luck fell apart. How many injuries has he had?

All good, thanks for asking.
Yeah, no sorry Ice. When you've suffered at the position for years the way the Ravens have it's hard to have any sympathy. lol

The coverage possibilities afforded by having Queen on the field are ridiculous., along with pressure possibilities.
Nickel with the young LB's gives us great option to have either Chuck or Patrick in man on TE while sending the other if wed like.
Im also liking the idea of 4 a true corners package (smith, Marlon,tavon,Marcus), along with Chuck and both LB's with Earl Thomas off the field.

I find him annoying and a bit patronising - and the time is very “I’m smarter than you”
And in one of his offseason vids, he was clearly working hard on his releases at the LoS because I’m assuming he came to the same conclusion as you
I found it interesting that after re-signing, jimmy talked about taking on a role a bit like carr’s - we’ve often speculated here that he wouldn’t be a candidate to make that kind of transition to get him on the field
That being said I don’t think we’d ever take earl off the field

Day and night
And was still making plays and scoring on one good foot.
He’s going to be so much quicker and stronger and he was already a weapon that teams had to respect and were scared of deep
when you’ve suffered on Defense for so long you have to feel for us. We haven’t had a good defense since Clinton was president.

There are times where Earl was really out of position last year. In a sense he is being asked to be Eric Weddle in this defense and I'm not sure it was easy for him. Nickel stuff with the presumption that we go with Malik along with Patrick will be awesome to watch though. I am really looking forward to seeing how coach Martindale uses the safeties now that we have an LB that is capable of covering TE along with Chuck.
Very curious to see Jimmy on the field and how wink uses him.

So man coverage across the board, 4 man pressure, and 3 guys who may zone, double, or blitz.
just to make it better, have Judon standup rushing, just in case we wanna drop him and run a cb blitz one time

They got an hour long interview with EDC and it's nothing but empty calorie questions and obnoxious laughter... damn near unwatchable
Jimmy can 100% be used like a coverage weapon where we line him up against a TE and just have him erase them from the play like he used to with number 1 receivers
That’s disappointing to hear - especially post-draft when there’s much less secrecy
