Offensive lineman typically finish second in collective IQ after QB.

Too good to be true.
Cleveland is the front-runner to be featured on HBO's Hard Knocks training camp series in 2015.


Old Man Harrison back for up to two years.

The Steelers are as loaded on offense as they are barren on defense.

Very different from the Steelers teams I'm used to watching.

Raiders reportedly staying in Oakland. This is interesting because it puts a nix on the Rams moving back to LA.
Still, NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport made it clear that a trio of clubs in Southern California isn't seen as "feasible" by the NFL.


Chip Kelly may want to invest in a QB coach.
Kelly explained why he brought Tebow in during a conversation with NFL Media's Steve Wyche at the NFL Annual Meeting in Arizona.

"I've always been a fan of Tim," Kelly said in an interview that will air tonight at 7 ET on NFL Total Access. "We bring in a lot of players for private workouts, it's just he's the one that everyone keeps talking about. We brought in Terrelle Pryor for a workout and Thad Lewis in for a workout. When players are available for you to work them out it's the same thing of going to the Veteran Combine or going to the Super Regional Combine.

After letting Nick Foles go for Sam Bradford, the Eagles are trying to get insurance from one of those three dudes? My fucking god. Hope Sam's ligaments hold out this year or he'll quickly become the next Chad Pennington. Jim Tomsula should get on board that train.

No blackouts.

Pats owner details how potential LA teams should jump ship from their current rigs.
The Patriots' owner said that he feels bad for young children growing up in the Los Angeles area that haven't known a hometown team. He mentioned L.A. being a "showplace" for the league.

You're shitting me. Maybe LA should try harder to hold on to a fucking team.

Manziel getting ready for the exciting preseason battle with Josh McCown. I hear Johnny's doing 12 ounce curls every day.

AP's agent: playing for Vikes not "in Adrian's best interests."

Atlanta takes a lot of shit, rightfully so, for being a bad town for sports because the fans suck. I think LA should be in that conversation as well.

They, like anyone, can support a winner, but they're late to arrive, early to leave, and don't really give a shit. They're a lot like Miami, another town that should be in the "worst sports cities" conversation.

Titans make sure that none of their current QBs will give a fuck.

Jimmy G almost went to Miami.

Redskins thinking of looking for another bust at QB when draft comes around.

Tone Loc seems a bit overconfident in his offense.

At the least we have to throw that out there as trade bait.

Bonus points if St. Louis trades for it again.

Someone thinks the Pats cheated.
The Jets filed tampering charges against Patriots owner Robert Kraft for Monday's comments referencing Revis...


Vikes keeping Patterson. Goddamn, I hope Bridgewater doesn't suck.

LA story continues.

PAT\XP changes.

49ers looking like their season will be a train wreck before it even starts.
"Reggie can be an every-down back. He's done that in the NFL," Tomsula said, pointing specifically to Bush's distant 1,086-yard campaign with the Dolphins in 2011.
...
"Reggie's a very good space player," Tomsula said. "Reggie can -- it's well-documented -- his skill set on third downs. Reggie's a guy -- he's a running back. He's not a gadget guy, in my opinion. I think Reggie Bush is a running back. I'm really excited about having Reggie joining the crew."

Wtf?

Why the Eagles wanted Bradford.

A college-type rule in which a defense could score a touchdown on a blocked kick or interception or fumble return on a two-point conversion.

I'm all for that.

Pats did cheat with that formation.

Did you think Kraft holds Goodell's head down when he's deepthroating him?

Pats didn't cheat. The rule has changed. To become better, imho.

Like the tuck rule, and the snow plow that was allowed to plow the field for the kicker, and destroying all Spygate evidence, and Deflategate, etc.

No, they're not cheaters.
