Pretty sure Sam is gone and the team penalty yards just improved by six yards per game.

Smitty has come a long way since the sandbox. He’s become quite sassy.

He has come a long way. Instead of a 850 word diatribe he has learned it is much more efficient to just call someone a fucking retard and move on. I'm so proud of him.

Shit, even Von Miller looks terrified of Barhammer.

Coverage sack, but even on those it takes effort, and Overton certainly showed it here.

Wheat looking good there also.

I know it wasn't some splashy 50 yard throw in the air dropped into the bread basket, but this was probably Milton's best pass of the game. Just beautiful to first get himself in the position and then a perfect pass in stride to TDCB.

Wheat looked good on a number of plays. He had that sack deep in our end, as well, that stalled their drive and forced a FG.

I love this play from him because while he's scrambling he's still looking to make a play downfield instead of just giving up and running. This is the sort of payoff you can get when you do that.

Also nice work from Brown to keep working.

 

[Cotton]

Please please please make the team.

I wonder if they throw him on the practice squad.

 

[Chocolate Lab]

Yeah, I'll eat some crow on Joe. Not sure he won't still make bonehead throws against better competition, but he does look much improved over last year.

 

[Cotton]

I wonder if they throw him on the practice squad.

I hope so. He is the only guy I have ever seen be able to make me feel stoned just from listening to him talk.
