Is Irsay becoming the next Jerry Jones? Seems he likes the limelight, and not sure why he's saying anything to his coaching staff after a friggin pre-season game.

Non story, it says Douglass was inebriated. Other than killing someone, dwi etc. What you do when in a drunken stuper should never be held against you. Me and my third wife are in complete agreement on this. It just doesnt count kind of like an eternity of mulligans.

Anybody surprised? First punt was blocked.


[quote]3. PITTSBURGH'S SPECIAL TEAMS NEED SOME WORK: The Steelers brought longtime Washington Redskins special teams coach Danny Smith in during the offseason hoping the passionate Smith could stoke some life into a largely blase unit. It's going to take some work.


New York blocked a punt after Pittsburgh's first possession when Damontre Moore came in untouched to smother the punt off the foot of Drew Butler Things didn't get much better from there.


Punt returner David Gilreath inexplicably caught a punt inside the Pittsburgh 5 early in the second half. A block in the back penalty put the ball at the
Pittsburgh 2 for the first snap of rookie quarterback Landry Jones career. Jones botched a handoff and New York fell on it for a safety.
Gilreath later let a punt smack off his facemask. The Giants recovered the muff but were unable to score.[/quote]

Re: Around the NFL 2013 Offseason (Episode 99)
 

^^ I am. Special teams used to be solid for us with Danny. It must be hard to work with the least talented guys on any team. Steelers special teams never stood out to me in the 2 games vs Ravens each year.

I guess I'll always root for Dsmith.

Solid? Our ST (blocking wise, not coverage wise) had been crappy for awhile. Blocking punts, blocking field goals...

Granted, a lot of that lies on the players stinking it up (i.e. low arching FG kicks) but some of it falls on coaching as well. You gotta teach your players to know and play better.

Guess I'm kinda siding with NC on this one.

What a joke. He played during a era when concussions were of major importance to the NFL. This is simply a money grab by a greedy douchebag. Hell, if it weren't for the fact no teams wanted him, he'd still be playing to this day.

Lions are the only team that lost money this year, more of a reflection of Detroit than anything else.

The two worst teams (in most people's eyes) are the least valuable franchises, Jags and Raiders.

Cowboys of course number 1, skins are number 3.

Tyrann Mathieu's dominating. I figured he would be pretty good in the NFL. But like you said, it is the preseason.

EJ Manuel out for the rest of the preseason? That sucks for Buffalo; Manuel>Kolb anytime. Hopefully he can start Week 1.

Seriously, what is wrong with Dallas? They're loaded with talent: Romo, Bryant, Murray, Witten, Ware, Lee, etc. Yet they just continue to suck. Not that it bothers me, of course.

What's wrong with Dallas: Jerry Jones

NFL Network coverage of the den-sea game is leaving something to be desired. They cut from live action in seattle to a meaningless punt with 3 min to go. Then they talk over the game, and then cut to commercial in the middle of a broncos scoring drive.

Re: Around the NFL 2013 Offseason (Episode 99)
 

Omg i hate Seattle. Those mfrs play hard though. And when you play as hard as they do your gonna get some breaks. But in the long run i still think Pete Carrol will screw it all up.

Well they don't suck, they have been around 500 the last few years. They've been an average team.

Yes Dallas is loaded at skill pos. But that oline is embarrassing
