Went there last season. Best stadium I have been in besides Cowboys.

So far it looks like 3 rookie QB will start in the NFL this season. Russell Wilson(Seattle), Andrew Luck(Indianapolis) and Robert Griffin III(Washington). Did I miss anyone else? That would be awesome.

Ryan Tannehill for the Dolphins and Brandon Weeden for the Browns.

Doug Martin went to Boise State. LeGarette Blount punches guys from Boise State in the face. Doug Martin just took LeGarette's job. So uhh, watch out Doug?

No doubt in my mind though, Doug Martin will be the best RB from this draft.

Washington sure loves signing Baltimore's castoffs every chance they get. Too funny that Graham Gano now has been replaced twice by Billy Cundif. Isn't this like his 10th team in 12 years in the league?

I don't know how many people like reading about the X's and O's of football but this article on offenses is pretty damn interesting....maybe just for me.

Kenny Britt gets 1 game suspension. 10 incidents were reviewed. According to twitter universe and PFT.

I think that's brutal. Should be more. He got away without punishment last year due to the CBA debacle.

Looking forward to watching Brock Osweiler take Caleb Hanie's job tonight in the desert. I just hope I can stay awake. It's been a long day!

Cut down day tomorrow boys!

Speaking of backup QBs....i have been very worried about what the Packers would do should Rodgers suffer an injury as Graham harrell has been nothing short of awful thus far in pre season. Then tonight he comes out of no where and throws up some eye popping numbers.

13/15 for 223 yds, no sacks, 2TDs and a 158 QB rating

I feel a bit better about him now.

I'm beginning to think the Chiefs defence could be a total disaster this year. Very little pressure, poor coverage, and a lot of penalties. If they suffer a couple injuries again, it could be bad. Dontari Poe is looking like a lot of other high first round defensive line picks by the Chiefs....Undrwhelming.
