Somebody made a post a day or so a go that said GMAP like 50 times, it sounded like Bienemy talking about himself in the 3rd person, it was like nails on a chalkboard for me. Probably because of IMAP, GMAP makes me think of some sort of proprietary internet protocol (maybe Google Messaging Access Protocol). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingdaddy Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 Good read here on Kingsbury's offense, gets into great detail. TE's will be used a lot and so will crossing routes. Spread the field mentality. Best case scenario we've got 2012 all over again, minus the ending with the QB. There are lots of reasons to be excited because we've upgraded in so many areas. https://www.si.com/nfl/bears/news/fiction-and-non-fiction-on-kliff-kingsbury-offense 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OtisDriftwood25 Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 I heard somewhere we are up to 43 new players entering camp including UDFA. Pretty amazing overhaul. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lombardi's_kid_brother Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 Magic is done with basketball and is now going to bring this level of cutting analysis to, well, baseball. But come October-ish, his Commanders better perform or he will demand they be mentally tougher on the Site Formerly Known as Twitter. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I'm probably going to get dragged for this but I see a lot of similarities between the beginning of the Harris group era and when Jerry Jones took over Dallas in 1989. The Cowboys intentionally hit rock bottom, before completely overhauling the roster and culture. The 6 game improvement in '90 laid the foundation for a playoff run in '91 and back-to-back Lombardis immediately after that. Washington didn't get the same haul as Jimmy Johnson did for Walker, but they had a lot of draft capital last weekend and crushed it, by most accounts. I'm expecting a playoff push this year, and whether they get there or not, they should be more competitive and it's going to be more fun than at any point since 2012.

So magic was the key note speaker today at the aaae conference I volunteered at (my airport was hosting) all volunteers got to meet and take a picture. I thanked him and told him when the group took over was the 1st time in 10 yrs I spent money on the team for merch. Also told him the fans are pumped for the future. Said he was grateful for the fans support and the they can feel the support and energy from the fan base.

kingdaddy Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 I just listened to Ed McCaffery on Sirius NFL channel and he is ecstatic that his son Luke is gonna be playing in Cliff Kingsbury's offense. If that's not encouraging then I don't know what is. He went on to say how great Jamison Crowder is gonna be as a mentor for Luke and how solid our WR corp is. He then mentioned how he's pumped to see Luke play with Jayden Daniels. 6 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommanderInTheRye Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 Call me a sentimental old fool, but I can never get enough of these "we just drafted you!" videos. Here's a compilation of Peters welcoming each of our draft picks to their future... There's something about having a dream that you worked so hard at for years, and finally seeing it manifest that reawakens the essential "thing" inside of all of us that drives us to be more than just the sum of our collective parts. I guess it's kind of why I love hokey dream quest films like Rocky so much. 18 4 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that last pick it sounded like he might have been crying. He was so happy and his family were really cheering hard. I wish we had video of that. It must be agonizing waiting through the whole draft hoping that somehow you might hear your name and then when a few pics are left and you've just about given up hope the phone rings. On the other end of the spectrum, I felt like Nasty Newton was pissed off that he didn't hear his name called until the second round. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got that vibe too, I also wonder if his initial reaction was partially to not wanting to start his career in the shadow of two pro bowl defensive tackles. I know he's had videos since that say he's excited to work with Allen and Payne but that might not have been his first reaction. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
