What kind of drugs are you on, and where can the rest of us get some?
Just joking with you. But, you don't seriously think the team would give up on Josh after one season, regardless of how he plays, do you?
Welcome ?
this place is batsh** crazy and it’s like meth... super addictive
And don’t get discouraged when DCtom calls you an idiot, that means you’ve made it ?
Go Bills

Has anyone ever had their call screened by a friend? If so how did you guys handle the situation? Are they still your friends?

Yea I loved the Gaines trade too. I wasn't saying Davis is bad in zone so much as I think at his peak he was a top 10 corner mainly playing press man. We don't necessarily need top 10 play from him though. If he could match or slightly better EJ Gaines' production last year that would do. If he is healthy and picks up the scheme quickly he certainly is a talent upgrade and gives you a bit more versatility in the types of coverage you can run compared to Gaines.
I agree. I always thought he was at his best in press man so he can use his physicality and athleticism

I am also cautiously optimistic. Not as convinced as the OP that he is as good of a fit in zone as he is for more of a press man scheme which is how he was used when he was at his best. I was a big EJ Gaines guy insofar as his fit in the scheme.... but Davis if healthy and adapting to the defense is a more talented football player.
Taron Johnson v Phillip Gaines for the slot position is a battle to watch during camp and the biggest worry across the secondary in my mind is depth
Vontae was well versed in man and zone at Illinois
He excelled in off zone and press man
McDermott is not afraid to press or play off and Vontae was far from bad in zone coverage in his career... maybe lacks some awareness at times but all corners do throughout a game for some plays
I loved the Gaines trade when it happens and think Vontae can be a veteran upgrade... though It woulda been nice to have Gaines back

All that changes if Vonte has lost a step. He could end up being a liability. I hope not but we don't know if he's going to come back to be what he was. So it's a gamble.
He was hurt last year and was good 2 years ago and a pro bowler 3 years ago
He isn’t 30 yet and is a specimen athletically. He signed a 1 year deal because he wants to hit another pay day
i think we struck gold this time

Last year we saw a major overhaul of our secondary and a lot of people were suspect
We traded Darby and Gilmore walked, no longer had Robey Coleman in the slot.
Coaching and scheme proved to be the calling card of our secondary resurgence...
Now we add Vontae Davis to the mix.... A super physical corner who can play press man/ zone and is quick enough to play off man as well
He also is super physical in the run game... aggressive with keeping his contain and not afraid to throw his body around
A former all pro he brings veteran leadership and football savvy to the locker room
With Hyde and Poyer In the backend and White and Davis on the outside I see a top 5-10 passing D and a lot of pissed off QBs
Vontae is a headache for opposing WRs

I saw that Beth Hart had to cancel due to a jaw injury. I can't find much more on it. I'm wondering if she'll be ready to go this Friday. A couple of the guys I'm going with are huge Beth Hart fans (I honestly don't care if she performs, or not; she's good, but it won't break my heart to get an extra set out of KWS over seeing her) and are looking forward to seeing her as much as I'm looking forward to seeing KWS.
Yea , I’m Not exactly sure what happened to Hart, but some people at the concert were saying she broke her jaw?
if she broke it I can’t imagine her playing yet...
i did get a free concert ticket to canal side because she cancelled!
KWS rocked down the house, there were atleast 10 thousand there and it was rocking!
He knew how to put on a show and played some great blues tunes as well!
There lead singer was fantastic too! Didn’t know what to expect but they were a super tight band! Keyboard player and all!

I saw KWS as part of the, "Experience Hendrix," tour, for years ago.
While I agree that it's very clear that Hendrix and SRV were his primary influences, he's definitely got his own style. He absolutely destroyed every other guitarist during that show (including Buddy Guy, Dweezil Zappa and Jonny Lang). My point is that he's not just a copy cat, by any means.
I'm going to see him this Friday night in Albany and I cannot wait.
Last week was the first time I ever heard him and I was blown away
he oozes talent. His band was phenomenal and it was a awesome show
Dudes got the chops

I think you missed my point. Edmunds would play weak side on first downs and MLB in dime packages. You should check out what Bowman did last year in Oakland. Your way off on your statement there. Edmunds would be on the field all 3 downs. Milano , Bowman, and Edmunds on running downs, and then in dime packages Milano , Edmonds and a extra DB. To me this would strengthen a solid group and let Edmunds develop with less pressure. This would take Lorax out of the starting lineup and let him be a situational pass rusher and SP ace.
A dime Package only carries 1 linebacker...
what you are referring too is a nickel package

ATS (against the spread) -They're actually alright... With 14 starters coming back, (plus Anthony Johnson) that trend should continue...
However with games @ Chippewas, @ Bobcats, and @ BGSU, a DD-win season may be asking too much...
@ Temple 9/8 and @ Rutgers 9/22 will tell us a lot about this team.
I think Temple and Army are big tests and will tell you a lot about the Bulls...
i think they should be able to beat Rutgers in a good game
Good QB, good Oline, good RB and receivers and TE...
and an improving D led by Khalil Hodge

Watched the fights tonight.
Machado is a talented guy; he won his fight easily and it probably should have been stopped at some point.
Yea he is fast and explosive... had sloppy footwork and spotty D after his last fight but the 9 months off looked like they helped
Maybe he gets Gervonta next

I misread the title as "I Went to Kanye West last night."
Glad it didn't come to that.
I would never go to Kanye West ?

Bulls have 14 starters coming back of a .500 team... They get cupcake week 1 with Delaware State, then face a tough Temple team on the road.
-Thing is, they're terrible on the road, so week 2 will be their first real test.
I wouldn’t say they are terrible on the road lol
its always tougher to play on the road... lost to Minnesota by only 10 on the road... was beating army all game and ended up barely losing
Lost to akron by 1... a few plays here and there and they are different outcomes
he also were down to their 3 string QB for 2 ganes

My friend is a trainer for world champion Alberto Machado and has been with him since day 1
He is now in camp with Freddie Roach and this has been his kid for 10+ years
Always Told me he would be a world champion and now he is... he is defending rn on HBO boxing
he is a great guy

Interesting, I expected the opposite with offense/defense... Big 12 stereotype I guess
How are they against the run?
Top 5 last year and always pretty stout... they practice a lot for triple option , read options because they run a 4-2-5 which would look susceptible
Patterson is a defensive guru

Anyone follow this program? I’m trying to determine threat level for week 3 and can’t get a good feel from what I’ve read. I really don’t watch a lot of big 12. I know they’ve been really good recently but not sure what they have currently....
They are a defensive program.
They run a hybrid defense which has given teams fits for the last 15+ years no matter the mountain west or Big 12
if you can move the ball on them , you can win because they will not be an offensive powerhouse
(What’s confusing about that? I haven’t watched TCU religiously in a few years but they were always a defensive powerhouse. Top 25 defensive team
46 ranked offense last year... top 20 defense... that’s typical TCU

The first G3 was Satch, Vai, and Eric Johnson.
Kenny Wayne Shepherd is great...but he was so heavily influenced by SRV that after Ledbetter Heights I basically told myself "I can just listen to SRV albums instead," and kind-of lost interest.
Yea you can tell SRV really influenced him
but he also influenced a bunch of other artists as well

Most lineman do
I have a friend who played D1 and I. The league for a bit as a lineman and he lost 60-70 pounds fairly quickly after retiring
