A bad offensive line will hold up better against a 3 step drop than a 5 or 7 step drop. That's the concern. Of course if your receivers are dumb/inexperienced and don't know how to read coverages you get in trouble with a short drop too.

Tiger starts off birdie-birdie. HE'S BACK
-
http://www.chicagobreakingsports.com/2010/08/martz-bears-set-on-offensive-line-combination.html The offensive line is tentatively set with Williams-Garza-Kreutz-Louis-Omiyale. Hopefully Louis turns into a good player...he's really athletic but raw. I remember he had some character issues coming out of school too and now he's being converted from TE to LG.

I think the real story is that Tiger appears to be a bigger jerk than ever. Seriously, for someone whose claiming to get back in touch with his Buddhist roots, his press conferences are unbelievably curt. He's cutting off reporters with snide remarks all the time. I don't mind it, it's actually kind of funny, but no one seems to be mentioning it.
-
Maybe it's healthier if you allow yourself to believe in one optimistic, media-driven training camp angle. I'm going with Forte showing burst and shake.
-
The first game is against the Lions. Or did you mean the first real game?
-
Typical offseason fluff. It's truly meaningless. I mean it might not be but there's even odds that it is. Even preseason games don't mean anything. Remember when Cutler walked into Denver and tore up the Broncos in what was described as a playoff atmosphere? Didn't change [expletive]. The Bears will stink, false optimism, etc, etc.
-
Still more promising than Rudy's I'd say. What does Rudy do besides shoot the three ball? He had a sick dunk in the Gold Medal game.
-
Rudy Fernandez does not warrant that sort of additional attention.
-
You're just too tired from hating everything else in existence to hate Penn State football.
-
People talk about how great those Cardinals safeties were last year and then they couldn't stop anyone's passing game. Kampman would've been nice to get though. At least he's not on the Packers any more.

AmMo's worse.

I don't see how a straight to NBA or 2/3 years in college rule would be legal or enforceable in the first place. It would require cooperation between the NCAA and the NBA and the players union already hates the age limit rule. Plus how would universities force the NBA not to draft players after only one year of college?
-
I still see a decent case for the Vikings being the 2nd best team in the NFC behind New Orleans even without Favre. I mean no one would be surprised if they won the NFC North with Jackson at QB. The West blows. Are any of the Packers, Eagles, Cowboys, or Falcons clearly better than the Vikings w/o Favre? They could be but I don't see any definites there.

Martz is good at this Baghdad Bob thing: http://www.chicagobreakingsports.com/2010/08/martz-pleased-with-bears-offense-so-far.html
-
I'd love to have Delonte West if only to distract Lebron. Plus he's crazy and a decent player. I think the positives outweigh the risks here.

-
It was some specious argument about wanting more mature men coming into the league.
-
Also that training camp report is totally bogus and I'm not buying any of it for a second.
-
Peterson's still a beast but he's not the most patient runner in the world. Maybe it's the blocking. A few years ago they were wrecking teams with that stretch/zone blocking play where AD would get on the 2nd level and just run by/over people. Seemed like it got stuffed a lot last year.

Brad Childress looks like a pedophile.

Bulls @ OKC on 10/27 to open the season. Should be a good one. First Miami @ Cle game is 12/2 on TNT.

I believe the technical term is "only sulley's teams." -
I remember Kiper seemed to think he was one of the guys in that draft who could become an NFL starter down the line. He ended up undrafted, but what do we really know about Hanie at this point? I don't mind stashing him on the roster if he's a developmental type guy. Is he expected to be second on the depth chart? Yeah. I read on one of the ESPN columns the other day that because of Martz installing a new offense that the 3rd and 4th string guys aren't even getting any snaps in camp. It's all Cutler and Hanie.
