    And...another one. Say what you will about the Bengals and their reported "criminals" but the Lions are getting just as bad with their undisciplined players & coach...

    Well hopefully Ray Lewis slaps him around a little bit and persuades him to stay in Baltimore.

    Baltimore is playing this smart. With the short shelf life of NFL backs they can just franchise him the next couple of years and still be ahead financially.

    He's not worth Adrian Peterson/Chris Johnson money (frankly, I don't think either of those guys are worth what they were paid) but I do think he's right in line with Shady McCoy/Arian Foster money.

    Was just gonna post this lol. Should be semi interesting with Reggie Bush saying he will lead the league in rushing and Tannehill trying not to be a bust.

    I suppose. I am not too excited about the Dolphins. Hopefully there are certain players who turn out to be characters worth watching though. It seems like every team that goes through Hard Knocks gets some good karma for the season too.

    Haha don't think by my post that I'm excited... I really don't get it either but I guess maybe the Dolphins were the only ones who wanted to do it.I just meant at least there are some storylines for this Dolphins team lol.

    I never thought of that either but your right 4 out of 6 teams that were on Hard Knocks had a good season and made the playoffs.

    Loved Gonzo at OSU. Hope it all works out for him.
  • Midstate01
    Whew!!! I couldn't go this year. Was afraid I wouldn't get the chance. Though the practice they did on base was better then the game anyway.
