NFL FORUM

If Seth had a mind clone, it’s me, our articles and cheat sheets seem to be always highlighting the same guys in CFL and NFL preseason.

The ATL at MIA game last year. Wow. It was a mess. The rain coming on the wet field, Julio’s sore leg and his newly signed super contract was why he only played a snap. He and the other 1’s were slated to play into the third but the line looked so bad that the line was blown up after this game and a trade for a starter was made. Ryan was sacked, pressured or rushed every throw and the line was manhandled, Roddy was out due to have a scope procedure done. The game was a wash and they pulled Julio after a snap and the others before the half was over. They had truly seen enough.

This game in Orlando, tends to be different as the better line has looked solid so far, against Cleveland for sure, and the MIA DL isn’t what it was last year. That being said, if anything looks bad, they will pull guys. In this case, tonight, it might be Tannehill considering that the injuries on that line and the changes made with rookies in there, are major.

As to playing, ATL is expected to play all first stringers into the third, unless a position battle or roster spot dicates that they players in question need to see some time with the 1’s. Pretty sure DQ was referring to A. Robinson with the WR and B. Wilds with the RB crew. They also have a backup guard that they want to get work. Gray can not be assigned to the pratice squad, only Wilds. Yet, Wilds offers something that the other backs do not have in his 215 lb frame. He is the Steven Jackson big back that never happened. They will get him in with the first team to see how it shakes out, maybe even Gray as well.

I’m sure that we all will be talking all day on Twitter about the games.

Hey Seth, how can one get access to this site? Can anyone? The main site asks for user/password but offers no info about signing up.

Now do the YMCA dance lol..

With Dez being out, do you think Sherman will be covering Butler or Williams?

playing 3 quarters

I don’t feel great about any of the ATL running backs, it may be to even of a work load to have a sure fire guess on who will get the most volume. Although the RB situation tonight is pretty bleak so you may have to take a chance.

Miami gave up something like 5.0 yrd a carry in preseason. Their run defense is a gaping hole lol. Atlanta will play their starters 3 quarters minus Julio Jones ( JJ will probably play a couple of snaps). ATL beat writer also said most of the touches will likely go to Freeman and Coleman. Unless there is some news that says Freeman will not play the entire first half; I would go with him and B Wilds.

Is used pretty loosely, to have a good idea I’d check out the previous years week 3 preseason games. Seattle starters “played 3 quarters” that game as well. I’ll probably be wrong but I don’t feel good at all with anyone from Seattle, they never seem to put an emphasis on preseason games.
