I'm gonna take a stab at what Eli will say:

"We did some good things out there tonight but just didn't execute enough and left some points out there. We had some plays." Rinse and repeat twice or thrice.

"No, I'm not concerned," Manning said when reminded that the first-team offense has failed to score a passing touchdown this preseason. "I thought tonight we did some good things. There are definitely things to learn from and things to improve on. We have some new guys in spots; it is just a matter of getting right on target and getting on the same page."

didnt know about this:

Quote:
The Philadelphia Eagles gave quarterback Michael Vick a second chance after he was released from prison for dog-fighting charges.

While serving time, Vick filed for bankruptcy because he couldn’t pay the $10 to $50 million he owed. The debt, partly acquired because of foolish spending, was amassed despite reportedly making an estimated $25.4 million a year.
So when Vick struck an astronomical deal worth up to $100 million Monday, it not only marked what FoxSports.com’s Alex Marvez called the greatest rags-to-riches-to-rags-to-riches story in all of professional sports, it also displayed an “ultimate show of faith” from the Eagles.
And what prompted such faith?
Vick’s new-found maturity, says SI.com’s Peter King.
“One reason the Eagles felt comfortable handing Vick more than $40 million guaranteed is because they’ve seen a more mature Vick,” King wrote. A good illustration of that is his relationship with [Ravens sixth-round pick Tyrod] Taylor.”
King said one of the most interesting conversations he had on his trainingcamp tour was when Vick talked about his mentorship of Taylor, who quarterbacked at Virginia Tech like Vick did.
The 10-year veteran took the rookie under his wing this spring and summer. They worked out together in Virginia Beach. (ESPN followed the two for a session, which is shown in the video below. I’ve posted this in LFW before, but it’s worth another look.)
With their hometownsjust miles apart, Taylor followed Vick’s career from a young age and grew to idolize him.
“Don’t idolize me,” Vick told Taylor. “Follow me, watch me, but brand yourself, Tyrod.”
From there, they went to work. Vick was determined to help Taylor get ready for an NFL training camp despite the lockout.
“Vick told Taylor that when the lockout ended he had to be ready to step into a practice huddle with the Ravens and call plays confidently,” wrote King. “Because Taylor had been exposed to the Baltimore offense from offseason exposure to Ravens veterans, he had an idea of what the offense was, and what the terminology was, and Vick told him during every workout to make sure he did his homework on the Ravens’ plays.
“Vick would throw basic NFL concepts at him, like how to call protections and how to recognize certain blitzes and how to be sure to go through his progressions on a pass read.”
Vick’s labor of love is already paying dividends. Taylor is surpassing most everyone’s expectations, and is legitimately contending to be Joe Flacco’s backup. Not too shabby for a sixth-rounder who plays for a team that’s expected to reach the playoffs and battle for a Super Bowl berth.
“Everything I asked him to do, he did,” Vick told King. “I’d say, ‘Get in your playbook tonight,’ and he’d come back the next day and I’d ask him things, and he understood.
“This kid I’m really rooting for because he’s gone after it the right way. He really wants to be an NFL quarterback. He’s really worked at it. One night I called him at camp and said, ‘How’s it going, little bro?’ He said, ‘Getting it down. Running with the twos. Going good.’
Had I known that I would have been much more comfortable with Taylor as the backup and not worrying about it. He's been really good in the preseason games.

I believe Vick has been involved a lot with the QBs at Virginia Tech especially since his brother fizzled out badly for the college (off-field issues) and the NFL.

ESPN had a mention 1-2 weeks ago how Vick is usually called for input each college pre-season to help improve the training for the QBs so they are more NFL-ready and better players for the team. Obviously he wasn't able to help during his time in jail though.

There's a part of me that misses Vick in a Falcons uniform (he was the reason I started getting into football at all), but I'm very happy with how the Falcons have turned out without him. He's an amazing player, but the risk-reward drove me nuts as a fan, and he probably never would have gotten as good as he has had he not left Atlanta and had everything else happen to him. He's not the quarterback I remember watching - he's better. The injury risk is still very present, and he's never shown super consistency over an entire season, but he will carry the Eagles on his back some games to make up for it.

That being said, I cannot believe the Falcons ever survived the whole debacle. Kudos to Arthur Blank, Thomas Dimitroff, and Mike Smith for making a team that looks to be good for a while in a really tough division, and fuck Bobby Petrino.

Jerrel Jernigan is going to take years off of my life if he actually is the punt returner this year. The guy has fumbled/muffed almost every punt this pre-season. He doesn't look at the ball because he's too afraid of getting hit.

Good to see Rivers McCown wrote and posted the annual " Why the Colts run may be over" column on ESPN insider. I didn't know what I would do with out it.

It starts with " Indianapolis core is aging fast and the team doesn't have young talent to replace it "

Wouldn't feel like a Colts gloom and doom story if they didn't recycle that line from the last five years.

Clint Sintim might have torn his ACL, yet another season-ending injury. Didn't have much faith in him contributing anyway, seems like he is officially a bust...plus plenty of younger LB's have looked excellent. Anyway, with the pre-season over with and roster cuts due this weekend, I'm gonna take a stab at the Giants' 53-man roster. Mind, I wouldn't be shocked if they picked up a player or two off of the waiver wire when other teams make their cuts, especially at TE.

QB (2): Eli Manning, David Carr
HB (4): Ahmad Bradshaw, Brandon Jacobs, D.J. Ware, Da'Rel Scott
FB (1): Henry Hynoski
WR (6): Hakeem Nicks, Mario Manningham, Domenik Hixon, Victor Cruz, Devin Thomas, Jerrel Jernigan
TE (3): Travis Beckum, Bear Pascoe, Daniel Coats
OL (9): Will Beatty, David Diehl, David Baas, Chris Snee, Kareem McKenzie, Kevin Boothe, Mitch Petrus, James Brewer, Stacy Andrews

DE (5): Justin Tuck, Jason Pierre-Paul, Osi Umenyiora, Dave Tollefson, Justin Trattou
DT (4): Chris Canty, Linval Joseph, Rocky Bernard, Jimmy Kennedy
LB (7): Mathias Kiwanuka, Jonathan Goff, Michael Boley, Phillip Dillard, Greg Jones, Jacquain Williams, Spencer Paysinger
CB (5): Corey Webster, Aaron Ross, Brian Williams, Prince Amukamara, Michael Coe
S (4): Antrel Rolle, Kenny Phillips, Deon Grant, Tyler Sash

K (1): Lawrence Tynes
P (1): Steve Weatherford
LS (1): Zak DeOssie

---

Herzlich doesn't make it. Really gutting, and I hope I'm wrong...but I just don't see the Giants giving up on Phillip Dillard. It takes a lot for the Giants to give the axe to one of their 4th round or earlier draft picks after only one year. I would much rather they keep Herzlich and dump Dillard. Or, keep both and dump an extra OL, but that in and of itself is unlikely as 9 OL seems to be the Coughlin standard. If they want to have Bear as an H-back again they could dump Hynoski for the extra spot but I'm not too sure about that either.

If Osi didn't get his damn knee scraped out, they could probably just go with 4 DEs. Also with Prince out until October if another CB goes down I think they might have to make another roster move since having only 3 active CBs could be killer.

So much for "Tebow is the 4th best QB on the roster" eh? Fucking idiots

Quote:
Brady Quinn completed 4-of-12 passes for 26 yards and one interception against the Cardinals in the preseason finale.
It was a brutal performance in Quinn's first Denver start. He continues to look better in practices than games whereas Tim Tebow does the opposite. Tebow completed 7-of-11 passes for 116 yards and a 43-yard touchdown pass to Erron Riley to cap off a 94-yard passing drive in the fourth quarter. Quinn finished the preseason 22-of-42 (52.3 percent) for 276 yards (6.6 YPA), and a 2-2 TD-to-INT ratio. The much maligned Tebow ended up 20-of-31 (64.5 percent) for 310 yards (10.0 YPA), and one touchdown. It's clear who the primary backup should be.

Maybe Brady should try to get a refund from that qb coach he hired during the offseason.

Sweet, Mardy Gilyard cut. Seriously, he is retarded. Can not learn an offense to save his life, and his kick/punt returns sucked ass.

Eron Riley gets cut despite being Denver's leading non-starting WR, but Mitch Unrein who's done less than nothing gets a spot. The fuck?

Patriots expected to cut S Brandon Meriweather while RB Sammy Morris confirmed to be cut. They also got rid of S James Sanders and WR Brandon Tate to go along with some lesser names.

Morris wasn't a shocker considering he's been hurt most of the time and Tate never could adjust to Belichick's system even during the last 2 preseasons.

Meriweather was decent at Safety but Belichick loves Jared Mayo soo much he gave him the captain tag over the entire defense since last year. Ironic thing is Pats wanted Vernon Gholston in the 2008 draft but the Jets took him just so BB wouldn't have his top player and instead went with Mayo as the Plan B pick ... Gholston ended up getting released while Mayo is seen as one of the best young LB in the NFL.

Looking around the league to see if any interesting players were cut. I'm expecting Jake Ballard and either Michael Coe or Derrick Martin to ultimately be cut in favor of a new TE and DB.

The Giants somehow were able to put Sage Rosenfels on IR for strep throat...but that means his $3 million cap hit still takes effect.

Bears picked up Brandon Meriweather in a 1 year deal, no amount on the deal was revealed. Probably won't be a starter based on ESPN's analysis and how the Bears already announced their starters at the spot before the deal was done.

Patriots signed G Brian Waters to beef up the depth and quality on the offensive line.

Kinda wanted the Giants to pick up Meriweather...but I figured they wouldn't. Dude made the Pro Bowl two years running, so I'm assuming he was a huge douchebag to warrant getting pushed down the deoth chart and released. Belichick and Coughlin have the same mentality on dealing with players' bullshit.

Andre Brown and Adrian Tracy both have cleared waivers and will be on the practice squad. Happy about that.

Never, ever, ever, ever, make that assumption about a player in professional sports. A player's "behavioral issues" are almost always a media contrivance, pretty much like everything else in modern sports.
