[quote=MTK;1320062]It’s been good, I’ll be rooting for the Lions. Still have my doubts on Campbell, but he sure would be a great high school coach, that’s the vibe he gives me.[/quote]

Some of the coaches on the Lions like Staley and Glenn, they are so competitive that I almost feel like they need to tone it down. They're not playing anymore but still act like they are.. lol. But none the less very entertaining stuff.

Re: Around the league 2022 Camp edition
 

I always watch Hard Knocks, Huge fan of it and honestly I'm a sucker for football content. Dan Campbell seems like a great coach to play for but he does say the same shit over and over "Come on man, we need to fucking clean it up man" LOL

I don't see them going that far with Goff who is a top 25 QB but will never be elite.

Damn. Inside the NFL back in the day was my absolute favorite thing to watch, and back then when we won all the time I can remember being so excited to see the game recap for the Skins. Loved the pick segment too. RIP.

Indianapolis Colts punter Rigoberto Sanchez will likely miss the entire season after he sustained an Achilles injury during practice Tuesday, a team spokesperson said via the Indianapolis Star.

Sanchez went down during the final moments of practice Tuesday when the entire team was running sprints, something, as the punter, he wouldn’t normally participate in.

[Set, hut, hike! Create or join a fantasy football league now!]

Sanchez will undergo further testing Wednesday to determine the severity of his injury. According to ESPN’s Stephen Holder, his Achilles is believed to have ruptured which will end his season.

Sanchez was gearing up for his sixth season with the Colts this fall. He has been the team’s punter and kickoff specialist since the Colts signed him after he went undrafted in 2017, and the 27-year-old signed a four-year, $11.6 million extension in 2019. He averaged 44.5 yards per punt last season, and was ranked ninth in the league in punts taken inside the 20-yard line last season.

The Colts do not have a backup punter on their roster, so they will have to pick up someone before Week 1. The team has kickers Rodrigo Blankenship and Jake Verity available for kickoffs. Sanchez also served as the team’s holder on field goals.

tough break

Re: Around the league 2022 Camp edition
 

If the Seahawks tank their way to drafting a stud QB ... I dont think I can handle it.

Ride high on the Russell Wilson train for 10 years, then trade him at age 33 for two 1st Round picks, two 2nd R picks and 3 young potential players.

Eat one bad season.

Draft a potential QB stud in Stroud/Young/Richardson ...

While we muddle for decades ...

Cowboys’ left tackle Tyron Smith suffered a torn left hamstring during Wednesday’s practice that will keep him out indefinitely and could cost him multiple months of the 2022 season, sources tell @toddarcher and me. [url]https://t.co/CBd7XTOeyg[/url]

Ouch that’s big

Their Oline has been shakey in camp so far and their 1st round pick Tyler Smith hasn’t been able to win the starting Guard job. The other Tackle spot hasn’t been great either.

Re: Around the league 2022 Camp edition
 

I hate to celebrate when players get injured but it is hard not to have a little chuckle at the Cowboys who have had this problem with Smith repeatedly over the last 5 years and never seem to have any contingency in place

Given their first two games Dak may well be running for his life and hopefully be more than a little nervous when we visit in wk4

Cowboys’ LT Tyron Smith’s hamstring tore and came off the bone, per sources. He could have surgery as early as today, pending meeting with doctors. He is out indefinitely, and is unlikely to return before December.


Doesn't sound good

Yeah Im surprised they didnt have a contingency for this. He hasnt played a full season in a looooong time. You need a starter level swing tackle. Not some above average player but a Lucas type player.

Boys drafted LT Tyler Smith no. 24 overall .. but have him as starting LG over Connor McGovern.

They have Terrence Steele as their RT ... 64.5 PFF grade last year, played over 900 snaps, scouting report wasnt great UDFA in 2020.

Boys have a ton of cap and i imagine a Leno or Lucas level player becomes available. I dont think playing rookie Smith or underwhelming Steele at LT is an option.

I mean the Packers have had Hall of Fame QBs for 30 consecutive years and only have 2 SBs to show for it, so you can enjoy that part.

Seattle will never admit it but we all know what they are doing...

Re: Around the league 2022 Camp edition
 

Of course, they had to have a good enough player in RW to be able to swing a trade for those kind of assets. We haven't had anyone like that in ages.

Jerry seems like he would be fun to party with.

One of the players I met at Jason Taylor's HOF induction party told me JJ had a 3 story tent built for his HOF induction party (which was the same year). Who knows the debauchery JJ had going on in there.

Just read that McVay hired Jay Gruden as a consultant. How the tables have turned. That would have to be a little awkward.

I think that's just throwing Jay a bone - he probably gets paid to sit at home and watch games and occasionally call up McVay to offer some criticism or advice. Jay is living the dream now.

Pretty obvious Jay didn't have what it takes to be a HC, but I'm really curious about the control he had and didn't have over the offense. Reporting during that era alluded to the run game not meshing with the pass game, but Gruden is a good enough offensive mind to know that.

Always suspected that Dan or Brucifer brought Callahan in and forced the issue. It was absolutely ludicrous to have two opposing philosophies in run/pass.

I'm surprised more Bruce stories haven't leaked from that period about the dysfunction on the field, unless Dan was the puppetmaster.
