Nice post man. It's not as good as being there, but I really enjoy being able to see some of the things going on. We all like to be positive this time of year, and it is easy to pick stuff apart and call camp "not real football" , but it is just that. You look for the successes in camp that we all hope will be more the norm than the exception.

I do hope these fuckers turn out to be a snowball rolling downhill.

Who Shi$ in your new hat?(who fell for that BS?) Oz in 15 started against your Steelqueens Scout basters to the tune of 21 of 44 for 296 yrds. 3 TD's & ran for another..The Qb keys are laying on the table starting Thursday. Kess & Kizer will see plenty of scout team snaps..Go Drive the damn Team Bus?

Dude, look man, optimism is fine, but the guy was playing against the scout defense. He isn't exactly shredding anyone in camp. He hs making a few nice plays, but just as many bad ones.

So in consecutive posts you say you haven't seen Camp, but know Brock is making as many bad plays as good?

Cam simply has no tech and no control. Tripping over the goalline while trying to get out to lead the bubble screen and instead tripping up the WR might be a new low.

But those goal lines can be tricky. I've seen many a great RB trip over those things and go head first into the endzone.

We simply have not had people that were qualified to make 1st round draft picks.

Well let's see how Williams' two first round defenders pan out. I know he was insisting on Garrett for sure.

Hue had a strange comment on Cam, which has me puzzled.....basically said, after watching the tape, that Cam didnt look as terrible as he thought he would....????

1) What?......yes he did.....

2) What makes me nervous is that he is(kind of) defending his play.....so, again, I say....WHAT?

Yeah, I HOPE Hue is trying to use reverse psychology on him so he won't hurt his feelings as bad when we cut him. The guy is worthless.

"There were a couple times where Cam has to REPLACE his Hands & put his Hands in a better Spot,but he battled"...Huh,, Kinda hard to Re-place if it was never Placed in the first Place.Beep-Beep .So join us here each week our friends your sure to get a smile from 7 stranded offensive lineman .. Here on Turnstile Isle..

I swear his problem seems to be that the gut on him keeps throwing him off balance. They need to insist he run with Garrett in those 100 yd. sprints Myles does after every practice if he wants a shot at making this team.

Yeah- he only looked "bad", not terrible awful stinko bad. We disagree Hue.

Dead cap is around $5 million- may as well get that out of the way sooner instead of later. I mean last year when he was (trying to) play center and got hurt- we brought in a practice squad guy who was an improvement.

I forgot about that. What an indictment of bad play.

There are too many garbage players still in camps, having only one cut down is ridiculous. The real world needs to put those college degrees to work sooner than later.

The Gipper

Just because there is one cut now does not mean the teams have to wait until that date because anybody can cut anyone anytime they want

TopDawg31

Still have to carry a minimum number I believe.

Certainly did not come out of FSU with that belly... but he was still ungainly.

Have only watched the game... not "graded" the OL, but Cam had a few decent plays... just so many more epic fails.

I did not think the hold called on Shon was a hold.

I think everyone got irritated with him after his false start / hold / allowed pressure on one play; that was pretty bad, lol. After that he had a couple blunders but really wasn't that bad from what I saw compared to what everyone was saying. He definitely had several plays where he handled his guy just fine.
