LOL, I doubt there are 10 other posters here who pay attention to EPL

b stein - There's always at least one...

That makes no sense, they weren't selling those t-shirts at Walmart in a year we're not playing the 49ers, they were peddling them outside a stadium where he was the starting qb for the visiting team.

Pretty much this. My enthusiasm for watching other games hinges on how my two teams are doing. Notre Dame is the worst time in the world right now so I watch zero college football

Re-sign Zach Brown and just rotate our ILBs.

Well said

You're talking about a group of people who are drunk and already riled up, do we really think this wasn't said by at least someone in the area, if not the girl herself? The real question is, why is this a story? Is calling someone a Muslim an insult now? People burn effigies of opposing players all the time, why are we supposed to treat this player as special? I'm sure there are plenty of racist comments lobbed at opposing players at New Era field on a weekly basis, this is just a group of people looking for a reason to be professionally outraged so people can see how sensitive they are.

Looks like corners will be on an island and we stack the box and leave Zach Brown out there as a spy.

I'm more interested in why we had him scheduled for a visit, cancelled it and then he signed for another team. You think Whaley had him send a pic of him standing on a scale and decided it wasn't going to work?

EXACTLY!!! Every single person in that stadium could humiliate themselves in front of the entire world and I would not care one IOTA as long as we win.

Just checking. Are YOU a master of karate and friendship for everyone?

I'm more offended by Kaep's being a vegan in Buffalo. "Colin Kaepernick Hates Buffalo Wings, Calls Eating Meat An Abomination" now that's an article title I could be outraged about.

I'm up for whatever the heck makes him uncomfortable or less focused on the game. Is he afraid of spiders? Let's release 1000 spiders onto the field. I could care less about his political anything. He's a vegan now, I plan on "protesting" him by eating some sausage and peppers and a crapload of wings. Of course I will be doing it from home so no one will notice, but I'll chalk it up as a sweet burn.

Well yeah, I guess you could put Geno instead of EJ because he seemed like the consensus top QB in that draft, but some teams will always go their own weird way.

Nothing wrong with what McCoy asked. Now, if the fans ARE disrespectful and it affects Kaep... I'm ok with whatever messes with the opposing team's QB. This is a football not a camp sing-a-long, I cheer for my team to win, I don't cheer for the team with the nicest players and fans.

+1. I would just add that AZ and NE were good wins and good teams can have bad games but still find a way to win, like we did with the Rams. Now, we're not a "good team" yet, but it is encouraging that we didn't screw the pooch against LA. Good teams also roll over teams they should beat and don't let them hang around. We will know if we are a good team in a couple of weeks, at the very least this team appears to be more resilient that years past where we would lay down and die at the first sign of trouble.

At least he tries to present something substantive. I see you went in the other direction successfully... Incorrect, you cannot draft based on hindsight, you look at the next guy who went and realize this was the next guy up on most people's boards.

The fact that you don't know Goodwin was a third round pick doesn't do much for the credibility of your opinion.

I feel like this thread is a bit reactionary. FireRex has done a great job with his game observation posts and I think it's too soon to be calling for anyone to eat crow after 3 wins. I certainly hope the defense continues to tighten up and that Tyrod can show some MUCH NEEDED progression. If we see those two things I would feel a lot better about this team. 4/10 for 22 yards (according to the presser on OBD) in the second half isn't stellar QB play.

We need a receiver because we need the THREAT of a passing offense. All anyone needs to do is bracket Woods and stack the box and we're pretty much stuck throwing to Clay or no one else.

Scheme and coaching make a huge difference in player success. Look at how many players switch teams and then their play falls off; read that article by Haynesworth that was posted on the board. If Lorax were suddenly manhandling people whereas he never used to, I would say your suspicions may be founded, but we're talking about a player with a long-term injury (lisfranc) who played at a pretty good level in Washington before his injury and who feels healthy for the first time in a long time and is also coming into a scheme where LBers are put in good positions to make plays. I dunno, I feel like people who are suspicious of his success didn't see him play in Washington.

Three wins are three wins, but no one should be forming a bandwagon yet. 14-17 is right around where we belong.

Goodwin is no better than a 3rd maybe 4th receiver. I pray Hunter pans out because we have Woods and then no one.

Searched for this after reading the article while just browsing the website and was thinking about linking it myself; highly recommend it
