A DeVonta Smith Kelly Green just feels right. Something about it I can’t quite explain. 

Milton Williams Kelly Green will be the one for me.

Wow that’s pretty unique. I bet there’s less than 50 Milton jerseys out there (his friends & family mostly).

Sirianni saying that they're high on trey sermon and they wished they could get him more touches, so why didn't they?

Now that Sanders is gone and we have Penny surely the situation is exactly the same, even worse for sermon if they draft a RB.

Matt has to find a replacement for his Calvin Williams jersey.

If the Rams want him at 36, they would be smart to move up to 30 to get him.  With QB contracts going the way they are, that 5th year option is huge.

And give us their first rounder next year.  Rams LOVE trading away their first round pick.

Is Nike the worst manufacturer out there?  They can't make silver/gold pants, they couldn't make Midnight Green and they just ruin eveything they touch.  Has any other team not had their colors made in time for them?

The update from last season was that the Eagles were working with Nike in an attempt to match the kelly green as closely as possible. He said Nike currently didn’t have that color in its palette with the new materials used for jerseys these days.

what a pathetic excuse. So really we're not getting kelly green, we're getting a nike version of it that will be shite.

Maybe it’s against child labor laws in China to produce Kelly green $hit, idk

They are essentially trying to take all the quality games away from Sunday

Amazon is paying them a billion dollars. 

The NFL is beholden to their broadcast partners, hence why theyre eager to schedule a team for two TNF games (allowing them to spread the wealth across each broadcaster) and reluctant to flex TNF (then it becomes a balancing act mid season)

If the team had been better giving out contract 5 or so years ago, there would be more money their now to spend on Hurts.  That is on Lurie and FO, and a lesson they kind of don't seem willing to learn unless they are faced spending on a mega contract

I couldn’t even begin to express the fury I would have if I built a trip around a Sunday game that ended up getting flexed to a Thursday. 

It puts me off going if I get 2 weeks notice that I may have tickets to a game, and they move it forward a few days and I can't attend because travel plans are locked in.  John Mara was thankfully looking at it from the fans perspective

"I’m adamantly opposed to it,” Mara said. "Flexible scheduling ... is really inconsiderate to our season-ticket holders who fill our stadiums every week. People have gotten used to going from Sunday afternoon to Sunday night, but that doesn’t mean they like it. This year, we can be flexed to Monday night, which I think is very inconsiderate to our ticket holders.

"But to flex a game to Thursday night to me is abusive, and I’m adamantly opposed to it. Fortunately, it didn’t get enough votes, but it will probably be revisited in May."

It’s BS time.  Like everyone on the roster so confident no holes, miss the players that left etc.  Smokescreen for the next month.

How do they not have the color? The A's have a similar color to Kelly Green and so do the Celtics, both Nike made jerseys.

I was in the pro shop at the linc last week and saw a big difference in the midnight green from Reebok and the Nike version. I fully expect Nike to f this up.

Pick one

Van Ness

Murphy

Adebawore

Nike could have a proprietary colour palette or it be a case of those don't have colours available, and are incapable/unwilling to invest in getting it right - they are still selling jerseys, so why bother when we are making all that money?

Wrexham AFC have midnight green as their 2nd kit colour

I've not seen one in the wild, but looks to have the same issues as Nike have, but a nearer match

The Atlanta Falcons are signing 6x Pro Bowl DE Calais Campbell to a one-year deal. (Per Mike Garafolo

Yup, one would think a company as big as Nike would be better but they're not.

My eyes still bleeding from that complete hack job midnight green jersey they made that came out teal...🤢

That’s a tough call. I think I got with Adebawore. Production and athleticism. Can play on the edge or inside.

It's funny. He said Sermon looked good in practice or some such nonsense. They barely have any real practices during the season and certainly it's not Sermon in some game type action.

Maybe they felt with Sermon he has something special but last year he just needed some work in certain areas like ball security for one.   

They had Sanders and Gainwell taking the bulk and Hurts had his carries as well.  The draft will tell alot like you said.  If they don't take any RB then Sermon should get a good size work load and they are set with Gainwell, Penny, Scott and Sermon.

True that, Siri practiced like once a week, non padded half speed for 20 minutes.

So not sure how much he could glean from that about sermon.

Yea, I'm wondering if they looked at it as a wear kind of thing.  They had a very stable RB groupp last year so why put Sermon in there and risk injuring him when they plan on running him in to the ground in 2023.  Just spitballing here though.  IMO, if you have a player who you think is very good, put him on the field.  

They knew 2022 was Miles Sanders last year here and 99% had no intentions of bringing him back.  Run him in to the ground and get everything you can out of him while you have his replacement on the roster for pennies.  

Not sure I helped our O in this FanSpeak mock
