  1. Yeah I watched the highlights but there weren't that many. I still think he'll have some issues with their OL and protection this year.
  2. Here's what I had before Pre-Season for our top receivers... After 2 games I'll update it with: 1. Reed 2. Doctson 3. Richardson 4. Crowder 5. Harris 6. Davis 7. Quinn 8. Sims 2-TE's 5-WR's 1-RB in the top 8 receivers. Not sure his route running is in any way threatening to Doctson. He's going to get scooped off the PS if they don't put him on the roster.
  3. I was just coming back to look at where I had Sims.... I'm putting him above Quick. Someone will take him off the practice squad so he won't last there.
  4. All the streams I have linked are HD so I'll stop posting see ya
  5. The game is on ESPN and locally so I don't think anyone should have a problem seeing the game...? Here's a list of streams:
  6. Pretty meh about the RBs now...not depressed nor excited anymore. This being said, we really just need a healthy streak for the big guys to let the RBs get some continuity going. I think all the RBs on the roster can produce when there's hole to run through. Same situation for the receivers and our new QB. The offense will go along just as the OL does. We could take the DL to a whole different level with some health and continuity there. The team is going to do as well as the lines are going to be producing over a season long set. I'd view this as gradeable by a series of games and not a game by game basis. Additionally quantified by culmination of consistency over the season. When you have at least 4:5 of the line playing on avg over the course of the year it's going to be a different season. If your plugging in guys week by week then your not going to be expecting any better results. Gotta keep the big guys on the field.
  7. I've been living overseas for several years and have never had any problem finding a link to any game I wished to watch live. I've posted links here each year and if you search my link for the reddit forum for NFL streaming links you'll find them a few hours before game is broadcast. Also, if you have KODI there are plenty of resources to watch all games live without spending an arm and a leg for DTV. Now, I used to pay a truck full of dollars for DTV Sunday Ticket too. Not anymore. https://www.reddit.com/r/nflstreams/
  8. When I watch highlights of both Doctson and Richardson I don't see one trick for either of them. There's a few examples of Doctson cutting routes short with DB's biting deep. His comeback routes are money. I wouldn't argue that his vertical ability and high point on the ball are special skills. I view the logical next step for him as being able to run all 3 levels of the route tree at the same speed (ala Norman's grading of receiver strength). If his routes evolve he's going to be making plays at every level. Richardson's got some speed and makes plays across the field. He catches everything (with as great of a one handed catch as Harris had vs the Lions). Probably comes down to Coach getting the most out of his players.
  9. That wasn't the context of my comment at all. The meat of it is that it cost them nothing to get Quick and he is a physical presence as well as a veteran receiver that's not virgin to the offense. Just making a sarcastic comment and ignoring my intended commentary is equal to trolling. Anyway, it's not just his stature that would compel any logic to simply discard him.
  10. Richardson has been getting after it as much as everyone else. I watched all his highlights from last year and he definitely balled out after being on IR. He's obviously feeling better and this would be the year he could breakout. He is fast too. There's a valid combo there with Doctson, Reed, Crowder, Richardson...you've got talent at every point of attack. Can't ask for much more than that except to add a RB that could potentially require some help to stop in the box. Might come down to the coach. If those guys are all healthy and don't put up numbers it's definitely on the coach imo.
  11. Yeah that's what I'm thinking. He's one of the tallest WR's.
  12. I think he's as likely a candidate for a #4 spot as any of them at this point. JD is back. Fake news sucks. Watch the live tweets. https://twitter.com/LakeLewis/status/1026892112493768705
  13. I wouldn't hope Brian Quick fails because he's 6'3" 215...also didn't cost anything to see if he could valuable. I can see him getting waived.
  14. Yeah, I'm not sure about Thompson right now (because Thompson isn't sure about himself). He seems like a really honest guy and consistent with his language to all outlets. He's admitting pain, lack of confidence, and 'pushing through'...Doesn't sound promising. Might be reasonable to lower expectations until he's self proclaiming feeling 100% and confident. Once he's talking that up, I'd be with you to include a pass catching RB in the top assets of the receivers for sure. When he's feeling strong and confident, we've seen what he can do and it definitely aligns with what Alex Smith was doing previously with success. I think at this point just being in training camp and working is just as it should be. Preston Smith covered Chris Thompson down the field one-on-one on a deep ball and was there to break up pass. No joking on this! https://twitter.com/LakeLewis/status/1024668204415635457 Richardson at the bottom though? Why are you down on him? Everything I've seen and found about him was upside. Is it just intuition or something else? https://twitter.com/ChadwikoRCC/status/1024730670764109829 Brian Quick isn't a top 4 guy but...he could be the Skins Top 4 guy! He really needs to be unseeded imo. I'd like to think my 4,5,6 are all working towards that #4 designation. ? marks for Crowder, Quick, and Harris will not likely be answered in Pre-Season and I'd suspect not expected to solidify until the Bye Week.
  15. From what's available I view the Receiving Corp as serviceable with an upside. My intuition with respect for what might happen has Maurice Harris making some impact. With a healthy Jordan Reed, Crowder gets some stress relief and Doctson has the opportunity to take the next step. I'd have to put the rankings something like this: 1. Reed 2. Doctson 3. Richardson 4. Crowder 5. Quick 6. Harris I see this evolving over the Pre-Season, but my view is there's plenty of talented players and the upside is pretty good.
  16. With respect for Reeds ability and the often injured statistical fact, lets try and gain a little perspective on what he was dealing with and what the facts are currently with this regard. First, he's had a few concussions that we're an issue previous to the foot injury. The foot injury was the reason he missed games over the last significant portion of the games he's missed. The injury was a floating bone in his foot (the Sesamoid bone). This is a floating bone that is embedded in a tendon and connects to the big toe (in the foot). Another larger Sesamoid bone is the patella (knee cap), only connected by tendons, muscle, so it's floating. Not like the patella sesamoid, the one that floats close to the big toe isn't really necessary. Meaning you don't require it to walk, run, balance, etc. So in Reed's case, he had a situation where this bone was constantly irritating the tendon causing painful tendonitis at his big toe. If you've ever had tendonitis you'd know that it affectively renders that affected body part as useless with shooting (debilitating) pain when aggravated. In baseball pitchers get this tendon issue in their elbows or shoulders, they've got to end their season and get surgery. They can't pitch. The same would be true of any athlete that would have this type of tendon interference in a foot, knee, or hip. Now, he had one surgery to try and take the pressure off the tendon and it didn't alleviate the tendonitis issue, so they they just took it out. Problem solved, but he had to obviously heal and this type of procedure shuts you down for several months. Affectively, he's not going to have a correlated foot issue anymore. Additionally, his previous injuries have all healed. Now, he's stating he hasn't felt this good in years and it's just a matter of conditioning. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000942468/printable/redskins-jordan-reed-feels-100-times-better-than-17
  17. It's been pointed out by more than a few analysts and agreed upon here, our #1 Receiver is our TE. Last year, the Super Bowl with NE and PHI had both #1 Receivers as...TE's. While the #1& #2 Receivers in the League were (1)Antonio Brown and (2)Julio Jones. They combined for lots of yards but only 12 TD's between the two (9 and 3 respectively). Let's just say 6 TD's each, on average, between the two best Receivers in the league. The top two TE's in receiving yards were (10)Gronk and (13)Kelce. Both had 8 TD's. That's 33% more point production from this easy observation. We can take it a step further and (30)Ertz also had 8 TD's (Philly's #1 Receiver). All three of these TE's had relatively healthy seasons playing an average of 14 of 16 games. Both Kelce and Ertz had breakout seasons in their mutually shared 5th NFL Season. Jordan Reed, also had his 5th Season last year and it was injury plagued once again. He's played only one season, his breakout year 2015 where he's played 14 games. The magic number here appears to be 14 games. I don't think there's any TE in the NFL that is going to beat out Jordan Reed in any statistical category if he plays 14 games. Additionally, I don't believe there's any analysts that would disagree. Combine Alex Smith, whom delivered Kelce the ball, with a better receiver in Reed, over the course of 14 games and you've achieved the obvious winning formula that is today's NFL...You don't need a #1 WR to win a Super Bowl.
  18. Norman did an interview this off-season at the MLB All-Star Game and he said that the WR that gives you (the DB) the biggest trouble and what makes him the #1 threat is the guy who runs his all the routes, at the same speed. So a guy who can 1- Run all the routes and 2 - Run them at the same speed. Also think that Reed makes all the WR's better and since he's so often not on the field, that takes away from the WR corp as a whole. Essentially spending a lot of money on a guy who plays half the time isn't going to get it done for your unit. He essentially plays half the year. Currently on schedule to play 9 games this year. This is simply his statistical average. It's my opinion that for the WR corp to be successful, they need Reed to be on the field +70% of their games. When applying the NFL WR career formula, Paul Richardson Jr is the guy who is following the career path to Elite status. His second year was lost to injury. Year 3 (career year 2), is where their supposed to take a step to the next level, which he did and played another 15 games. Then, career year 3 (year 4 for Richardson), is supposed to be the breakout year for NFL WR's that have excellent careers...Richardson broke out. Just happened to be his year 4, but none the less, his career year 3. If there's two guys that you'd expect to have really good statistical years or upside years, it would be Richardson and Doctson. Not Crowder.
  19. Crowder didn't seem to have the focus or be as locked in to his overall game play last year. Normally you have a WR development where the second year is the first level where a WR takes a career forward. Crowder did make that step. His year 3 was a slight statistical decline. This wasn't a major sign of a downgrade IMO . It just wasn't another step forward to the next level. Possible that he's peaked. Essentially being valued at 750 yards and 3-5 TD type of NFL WR. That's going to put him in the realm of a #3 or #4 guy. From a roster point of view, you need those guys. I like the fact he's in a contract year. That normally fuels the fire for a statistical improvement (bar injury). If he get's locked in with AS then he should find his niche.
  20. Im sure everyone knows that Philly has arguably the best run defense so far this year. With that, what i dont want to see is guys taking a snap and running into walls. I think Jay needs to have a plan for that. Doctson is going to get more snaps and Pryor needs to be getting more looks. The Philly secondary is the soft spot. I believe tgey can win with a nice QB to WR showing in this 6th game. Its about that time. Id note that Cooley broke down Pryor's routes and he pointed out hes improved and its now timing. So KC to Pryor could be huge, with a slash of opportunity balls to Doctson. Im looking for a big passing attack. Redskins 31-28 The new kid kicks a 61 yarder to beat the Eagles in a payback!
  21. Incredible win for the Raiders. Don't see how KC will continue to be dominate moving forward. Their defense has been exposed. They have to rely on too many huge plays to put up enough points.

    Reviewing The Chiefs

    I watch the A22 of each game. It's 40 min. I like to see what's working and what's not. Good info, keep it up!
  23. They have to play a hard schedule vs an easy schedule like they had last year. It's going to be a rude awakening for these Brats. They're a bunch of spoiled rotten brats. Definitely not the gangster thugs or Showtime Favorites. They've strung together a group of very talented and borderline selfish brats. By the National poll that's half of the population that despises the Entitlement Attitude. Just a popular logo with a 50% consensus that they're rightly so entitled to nothing earned. They'll cave hard to an early lead and stout in your face defense. Formula is written now. I hate the F!@#$/ Cowboys!!!
