Or that the kid can learn to be a leader, which is easier said than done. Would be a shame for that much talent to go to waste.
McNabb was somewhat immature when he came out (and there's a good argument he still is) but Reid was able to work with him...

that's my take.
We are a 6-10 team, with the potential to get to 8 or 9 wins with a few lucky breaks.

Our schedule is one helluva' lucky break...

Well... no matter what, you couldn't imagine a better situation for him.

Yeah, that's fine, and true enough for a couple passes per game.

We can call it excuses, but I think (hope) that this timing issue is more due to a building but unrefined chemistry between QB and his new targets. Maybe they work that stuff out better and better as they go... maybe not.

Reid said last night that Wiley tweaked a hammy and they pulled him out for that reason, no sense exacerbating the hammy tweak in a pre-season game. I think Wiley is fine. He said the same of another guy who left the game, name escapes me. It was hot as hell and the final pre-season game. Basically, he said the only guy who is now officially out was the lineman with the torn bicep. Again, name escapes me.

Oh, so it's not just your opinion of Bowe that's reeruned. You legitimately have no ****ing clue when it comes to WRs.

Is it a mental disability or something? I'm sorry if I offended you in the past.

The fascination withn Wylie is beyond me, but good job here.

I actually agree with buzz, but I'd cut/trade dex and let Hammond return punts and put Hemingway in the slot

Hammond is ****ing garbage. Why would you put him on the team to do anything but serve gatorade to the real WRs?

O.city 08-30-2013 08:26 AM
Hammond looked better returning punts last night than dex or Wylie ever have.

He had one solid return. The rest of them were Dante Hall wannabe returns.

Move along. Nothing to see here.

I don't think it's a fascination with Wylie. Wylie makes the team on special teams alone, just like Jalil Brown. But even better that, like Brown, he can actually have a role on the team (a slot guy who isn't there yet, but definitely has the speed and agility to develop into one...). If Wylie weren't so good at special teams, I'd agree with you.

I think there are plenty of guys who can do the same thing, but can actually contribute elsewhere. Hammond isn't a good receiver, and he's not good enough to be a pure return guy. If you're unimpressed with Dex or Wylie, you have Knile Davis and Demps, both of whom looked very good.

As far as guys fighting for positions. I really liked what i saw out of Bradley McDougald and Abdullah as Safeties. Jalil Brown looked to improve as the preseason went along, as well... Was impressed by Catapano.

Iirc, neither of them have returned a punt.
