 Samuels is gone.
Never seen a guy get worse every year after he was drafted and last this long.

I said many times last year I wanted the whole RB room gone. At least the top two will be different. I can't see Sammuels making it this season.
Howard Griffith had to resort to chop-blocking him during the 1997 AFC Championship Game. An incredulous Kirkland asked Griffith, “Why do you have to use cheap tactics like chop-blocking?” Griffith replied “Why do you have to be a 300-pound linebacker?”

 If Haskins was at the 40, you'd be carving his bust for Canton.
Sure, because I've been such a Haskins nut-hugger here.

Your gut is like a minor league sperm bank for NFL jags
Because I haven't released Rudolph yet? :lol:

Okay, son.

That punt was on purpose, get yards or get the returner to think he could field that…

HOLY SHIT

Overall the team looked pretty good

Starting OL did ok
Haskins looked good
McFarland might be able to get a few snaps
Lotta D players lived up to their billing

The problem with Dobbs is consistency.

If you EVER believe he might become a decent QB, he'll prove you wrong very quickly.

 This 17 looks better than both Pierre and Layne.
I agree KC - he looks like a keeper for now. I will be focusing on him more as the preseason unfolds and hopefully he get in against some better receivers, but his body position and anticipation are really good!

I'd go for it. THe kicker doesn't need any more work.

Samuels seems to have regressed over the years. He's going to be cut.

Is Snell not playing because he is a lock to make it or he was too slow to make the team bus to Canton?

Gilbert at least understands when to turn around and look to play the ball.

Layne doesn't and never will. Pierre does it occasionally. Not consistently.

I didn't think Pierre was as bad as some of you thought. Layne was a dumpster fire though. I liked a lot of what I saw from Brooks in the slot.

Good attempt though. :?

He shoulda thrown it to Dennis Rader.
