What happened to this guy? After running on the AZ cardinals he had his ticket to canton stamped and I drafted him in my FF league? Why wasn't he getting the goalline carries against Atlanta? Is he hurt or in the doghouse?

We're resting him for the playoffs.

How did you like them long snaps on punts last night? That was some funny shit there.

Thomas Jones 2.0

Our OL really is not that good. Charles wasn't having much success either.

He had six carries that were worth shit the whole game.

What do I not understand about this? Seriously, how hard is it to long snap? I know it might not be perfect, but it seems like a typical pro athlete should be able to at least get it in the air and not roll it. That was bizarre.

Yep. Our line is not making holes. This offensive line has been grossly over rated by fans.

They showed him practice on the side lines doing just fine. Bizarre yes. Funny it was the raiders hell yes funny.

I think those snaps actually cost them the game. I realize that long snappers are important, but I wouldn't have really guessed that an injured long snapper would be such a disaster. That was like a F5 tornado hitting their special teams.

On another note, some team had a long snapper who made several snaps after breaking his arm, because apparently their backup wasn't much better than the Raiders guy. It was a tough week for long snappers. I wonder if anyone is dialing up Kendall Gammon.

Well, Atlanta's D is pretty good.

I expect us to do well against bad defenses.

We'll lose games to good teams, especially if they have a good defense.

Same old shit.

Snapping the ball 15 yards (45 ft) and then having to block isn't something a player can just do at the drop of a hat.

You use both hands to snap the ball and have to IMMEDIATELY get back up and block someone. If you don't have practice doing that, I can see where it can go wrong.

I think most fans or at least myself, aren't anointing this oline great yet. They have a lot of potential but it's gonna take some time to gel

Carson Palmer :harumph:

Yeah, McFailen lit it up last night.

Positive that we lit up the falcons, who have a pretty good d, throwing the ball for a half
