I thought he was being sarcastic, if not ,his mentality is part of the problem.

I think Mailata just made the team

The hope is he can at least be serviceable but he's also had a history of back problems

Let's circle back to his rookie year against the Jets when he played the entire game.  He did look dominant at times.  I know it wasn't against the starters.  Maybe live action is what the kid needs.  He's either going to boom or bust.

This is why i consider cordy Glenn. He has some starting experience and he’s fine as a backup. Not sure if he’s played some right tackle but he has left tackle and is a fine backup.

I think the Eagles have no choice but yeah I think he needs live real game reps to get better at this point.

He needs to be healthy long enough to do that

For the most part gun owners like greend favor background checks, reasonable waiting periods, and gun safety habits.  Those aren’t the people responsible for most gun violence. Heck, the mayor of Kansas City said he would welcome the Feds assistance in battling illegal guns. 

I agree.

Its not to kill or to immobilize, its the highest probability of ending the threat, which is to shoot for center mass

Because if your life isn’t in danger, you don’t need to shoot your gun to begin with. You only fire your gun if your life is in danger and you need to kill whoever is trying to kill you. You don’t shoot someone in the leg to stop them from running. It’s difficult enough to hit a big target. If you have the composure and the time to aim and shoot someone in the leg, you didn’t need to shoot them.

I’m on your side. I’m just saying shooting in the leg shouldn’t be an option.

well it is what it is

Move JP back to LT immediately.  I hope that is their plan.

Much easier to find a RG than a LT.

Of course that probably means we'll move Lane to LT and put in Mailata at RT

JP would have been starter at LT by week 2 anyway.

did someone sign the probowl guard that the saints cut , larry warford?

When you allow politics into something that isn't that political, you have to accept that you will hear opinions that you don't like and accept that some people will walk away as they don't want to mix politics and pleasure.  The status quo will not remain and it's that level of arrogance/entitlement that I think a small minority have.  Further, you will be asked to justify other people's actions that you aren't aware of or agree with and as such, ignorance is not an excuse any longer.  You become fair game.  Lebron's silence on China shines brightly.

You also have to accept your potential salary could reduce over time as you could limit your revenue streams.  Sadly, I think the toothpaste is out of the tube and in 5-10 years time, veteran players will look at the Salary Cap and wonder why salaries aren't rising.  

Still, Andre Dillard did his best to distract people with his injury.  And I get one year of the JP false start game to start with.

He opted out.  Not sure how binding that is because he was a free agent and gets no stipend.
