Recap
Big CatHard Knocks stinks
Hard Knocks stinks. There's nothing that can turn around a bad episode of Hard Knocks like watching it with a cool dog... The ending was, I had to like check myself because they had the dramatic rainstorm and Liev Schreiber was doing some unbelievable speech, and then I was like, wait, they lost in a preseason game to the Cardinals by three points. What are we doing here?
Big CatDak Prescott is probably going to miss the whole year with his shoulder injury
They can't show it [on Hard Knocks] because they don't want to tell us that [Dak Prescott's] shoulder's fucked up and he's probably going to miss the whole year.
Hot Seat Cool Throne
PFT CommenterJohn Mara is the driving force behind the NFL's new 'anti-fun' taunting penalty
Co-owner John Mara was the driving force behind the new taunting penalty in the NFL... It's honestly stupid... Mr. Mara, he is the man. He is the machine that needs to be raged against. He looks like when you die, if you still have a boss, that's what he looks like.
Big CatThe Tim Tebow tight end experiment was a farce and he sucked
My hot seat is anyone who likes Tim Tebow because he got cut and the farce of Tim Tebow actually trying out for the Jacksonville Jaguars and being a tight end... I'm just sick of Tim Tebow, especially the fact that he was asked to be a tight end like 10 years ago when he was still in the NFL said no. And now he tried again and he sucked.
Jake MarshNFL jerseys will eventually have advertising patches like the NBA and NHL
The NHL, like the NBA, is adding advertising to the front of the jerseys in 2022. I feel like it's inevitable for NFL.
Interview
Ron RiveraSpecial defenses are led by the defensive line setting the tone
One thing I will say is that each one of those teams [85 Bears, 06 Bears, current WFT]... it started with the defensive line setting the tone for the defense more so than anything else... When you look at those guys that were up front, there was something about those guys that set the tone and the tempo for who we were going to be as a football team.
Ron RiveraA defense that makes big plays at the right time will win the Super Bowl
A defense that can make plays at the right time will win the Super Bowl.
PFT CommenterDownfield laterals are the next revolution in football
Design downfield laterals... a receiver catches the ball, have a guy trailing them... that's going to be a chunk play every time. That's going to be the next revolution in football... it's the future of football.
David BakerLarry the Goldfish is officially admitted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame archives
We can certainly put him in the archives... we will take good care of it. Preserve it... he will be included in the archives of the Hall of Fame.
