Eagles/Panthers, Falcons/Ravens, Browns/Lions and Chargers/Bears on tonight.

I know it's preseason, but even we look better than the Eagles.
 
Angry Pig with all kinds of trickery and not one of the plays has worked all that well. Their best plays seem to be more traditional.

Foles with a pick in the endzone.
 
Damn! What channel is all this on? Anyone got an internet link?
 
I just have the Bears/Chargers on ESPN...

Fluker did just get destroyed on a pass rush though.

I don't think Ron Rivera is an effective head coach. That and Cam Newton is an immature me-only turd.

I do like their pass rushers and Luke Kuechly, who is what Sean Lee could be if he could stay healthy.
 
Vick picked off again. It would not shock me if Angry Pig went with Foles, honestly. Vick just can't protect the football.
 
Josh Norman might have a break out year...three picks in two games.
 
Chip Kelly is just a gross coach to look at.

He makes weird pained faces and sticks his tongue out a lot.

You mean the CB we could have drafted in the 4th round instead of Kyle Wilber or Matt Johnson?

And how that's how CB should always be addressed instead of trading 2 picks for Morris Claiborne, who instead should have been line help?

Interesting.

The CB/TE fetish always gets in the way the trenches. It is the Cowboy way.

I have to say, I am getting the same kind of feeling from Claiborne that I got from Felix Jones.

Talented, but something wrong upstairs.

That kid doesn't even behave like an elite cornerback. I don't see an edge.

I don't know if I say Felix Jones vibe, in the sense that he'll wash out in 3 years, but I'm starting to get a Terence Newman vibe. And I thought he'd be better than Newman (though still not anywhere close to worth his selection, of course).

If he ends up that way, this pick ends up being exponentially worse because we gave up a 2nd rounder as well.

He lacks the elite speed in the pros to cash in on the instincts he showed in college. I like his knack of going for the ball when he tackles, but the bang for the buck at his position comes from tracking the ball in the air. I think with Ware healthy Claiborne will get better pressure than he got last year, but the safeties next to him are still big and slow.
