Oh, how familiar that seems.

Old, slow, weak arm... at best a "Game Manager". Reminds me of old man Brad Johnson. That didn't work too well.
I'll take that out of a backup...don't forget that Brad Johnson nearly saved the 05 season.

You're right. Seemed a bit odd when I said it.
Bottom line is for the money, he's a good guy to have as a backup. He's more capable than Ponder and he's cheaper than anyone else people might think is better.
I like that Heinken kid though.

Oh, don't get me wrong... I'll take Hill over Ponder. No contest, no argument.

That penalty was so minor though. That seemed like nothing. I hope they don't start calling that in the regular season

Ponder played well last night. Hoping he does well in any action he can get.
Although, he got Samantha pregnant, so that's pretty damn good action.

I'm not complaining, but Waynes should have been flagged for that hit on Jameis.

Hodges, whom I wasn't originally big on...wants to change my mind.

I've been a big fan of him since he was drafted. I thought he was our best LB last year, honestly.

It seems we are using some strange alignments for LBs . 2 over center whole { I hear Zimmer has a big history of that} Then once no one in the middle. When they put 2 in the middle I think the other has his hand down as a pass rusher. Any insights info ?
