  1. They aren't mutually exclusive. I like both. Yes, it's precisely what those studies that suggest moderate rises in the minimum wage do not raise unemployment, rather macroeconomic performance is the main driver of employment. See the response above.
  2. Hmmm...I thought the minimum wage was supposed to raise youth unemployment?
  3. They have a really tough schedule...
  4. This WR group makes me think of Missouri....not because of the homonym, the motto.
  5. L. Johnson was the nickel, and they seem to be ok with their new Johnson and Gaines competing for that spot. What continues to worry me is the depth, or lack of, on the outside.
  6. My favorite was coach chastising the offense for not celebrating a TD, then showing how the D did it, focusing on some obscure D Lineman trying to catch up to the celebration, ending with “and he probably didn’t even no the guy’s name!” Entertaining stuff.
  7. i think most people would agree that Allen should start IF he Is the clear winner, but they've only played one preseason game so far. I won't be surprised if he has a stinker in one of the next two games--it's the nature of the position. If that happens, maybe the "start Allen no matter what" crowd will tone it down a bit, maybe.....
  8. Glad to see this. I saw a couple of plays in the game where he looked very good, but nice to see a complete analysis. Teller was a guy I came across in Virgil's TSW 3-round mock draft (the second one). I wanted to take him in R3 for the Vikings, but I was a little gun shy since it might've been too early. I think I posted his highlights in that thread. I was excited to see the Bills take him in R5. He hasn't disappointed.
  9. Given how he was used in college, Daboll's offense seems to be a good fit too. I'm optimistic he will have a good year.
  10. One of the "criticisms" of Jones coming out. Of the draft was that many of his record-breaking catches were short passes and bubble screens. Sounds like a perfect fit for Daboll's offense.
  11. If you're interested, There are two separate threads on this topic which can be found on Page 2 of listed topics...
  12. I think they will look hard at Cb as teams make their cuts.
  13. I had similar hopes that maybe he'd become our Edelman. I do think it's a bit premature to write him off just yet. He really didn't have a senior season, and it will certainly take some time adjusting to the nfl speed. I'd wait for that last preseason game before writing his nfl obituary...
  14. He seems to be peterman’s favorite target too.
  15. What I got from last night was that both can run Daboll's offense relatively well, and that it may take 3 games before they make a decision. I'd like to see how both do on the road too, even though it's preseason.
  16. yeah, I was thinking about the belief that they would be worse this year. My view is they won't be any worse--they were pretty good in run blocking but mediocre in pass blocking. Of course there is room for improvement. I think Daboll's scheme should help out too.
  17. Yes, I think the concerns have been a bit overstated. The tackles are the same as last year; Groy will most likely start at center and has shown he is more than capable when he replaced an injured Wood; the RG is last year's starter at LG; and the LG previously started for 2 years. The depth is adequate too.
  18. Yes, but I’m not worried about him yet. Now, if it continues...
  19. For me, no concerns about the starting D, but big concerns about CB depth. Davis and White need to stay healthy...
  20. Helped: Teller was a mauler out there. Hurt: anyone who played CB in the second half...ugh....
  21. They got him for a bag of peanuts, and I'm sure he knows it's one strike and yer out...
  22. Whoever starts of those two Thursday, I would guess the other gets the next start.
  23. Same here, though I will reserve judgment until at least two preseason games.
  24. I disagree on Reilly; I haven't seen much of Proehl yet, so I'll reserve judgment there.
  25. I posted this in some other Washington thread, but his overall stats (except sacks) were better than Kyles when adjusted for snap counts. I'm sure you're opinion s based on what you observe, not the stats.
