What a Romo throw.

Will Allen/Peterson : 8/4/2013 9:02 pm : link
From a fantasy perspective, I think the biggest concern I have with Miller is that I don't expect him to get goal-line carries. But they did keep him in for the first third-down opportunity they had tonight, which supports the notion that's been coming out of Miami about how he could be a three-down back as soon as this season. Philbin recently praised the progress he's made in pass protection since he became a Dolphin, and I think he'll surprise some people with his ability as a pass receiver.
I thought Miller dropped in the draft because of his knees  
robbieballs2003 : 8/4/2013 9:06 pm : link
Miller easily has the most talent of the group. I really like Gillislee though. He is just a great all around back. He may not do anything great but he does everything well.

Nope, Miller's knees are fine. He underwent shoulder surgery roughly four months prior to the 2012 draft, which raised medical red flags and caused him to plummet. He played through the injury throughout his sophomore season.

LB I wanted the Giants to draft in the middle rounds. Such good athleticism in coverage for a guy that size. He is gonna be a good one for Dallas.
Dallas made the switch to a 4-3  
robbieballs2003 : 8/4/2013 9:14 pm : link
and they have too many LBs and not enough DL.
I don't like Cris Carter

He is very annoying

@wingoz: Tony Romo told me rookie C Travis Frederick is blowing people away in camp. They like everything about him in Dallas
Yay!

I hope he's da awesomest bc he went to my collige!!!
Pretty  
Jon in NYC : 8/4/2013 9:24 pm : link
much.
We don't have the extra game  
JohnF : 8/4/2013 9:24 pm : link
but why isn't there a scrimmage to take it's place? I know teams didn't want to come to Albany (or at least that was the explanation), but other than the Jets (who I wouldn't go near after the last time), you'd think there'd be teams that would go to the Quest (as long as we had a return the next year to their place for scrimmage.)

I'd rather the pre-season be 2 scrimmages and 2 games,anyway. Less chance of injuries, and they would get more work in. It's not like the first 2 games are watchable, anyway.
Sorry  
Jon in NYC : 8/4/2013 9:25 pm : link
that you didn't go to college because you are da stupidz.
Smart enough not to root for players on division rival teams.  
arcarsenal : 8/4/2013 9:27 pm : link
You fuckin' putz. Are you going to be blowing this guy all year?
Lol.

wow I must have hit a nerve.
And yea,  
Jon in NYC : 8/4/2013 9:31 pm : link
I'm not going to just stop hoping a player I like does well because he happened to be drafted by a division rival.

I'm sorry if that offends your apparently oh so delicate sensibilities.

Can the media relax with Monte Kiffin, he had 3 HOFers/Potential HOFers with Sapp,Brooks, and Lynch in Tampa, he has no one like that in Dallas
Not trying to attack you  
LawrenceTaylor56 : 8/4/2013 9:35 pm : link
But you root for a guy on the Cowboys but root against a guy on the Knicks bc he went to Michigan.

You will root for a Cowboys player because he went to Wisconsin.. but are basically rooting against a Knicks player because he went to UMich.

Lawlz.

not surprised in LT because he's a putz, but I'm surprised that you are so shocked that there's no switch that just turns on and off when a player I liked/hated in college gets drafted by a team I like/dislike. Lets not pretend that I'm rooting for the Cowboys here. There is a clear difference. And it really isn't a big deal either way. Surprised your panties are all up in a twist about this.
its preseason  
mattlawson : 8/4/2013 9:42 pm : link
but the Cowboys D actually looks good. they are up on their fundamentals. getting to the ball
Jon being Jon.

Putz? Where did I just hear that?!

Jon in NYC : 8/4/2013 9:44 pm : link
didn't notice Arc said that. Maybe it was subliminal.

But yea, you suck.

@wingoz: Denard Robinson is lighting it up this preseason.

Translation: Eli who?

LawrenceTaylor56 : 8/4/2013 9:46 pm : link
Go outside.
I agree  
robbieballs2003 : 8/4/2013 9:47 pm : link
the Dallas defense is flying to the ball. I still don't think this style fits their players but they look good so far. Lets see how good they are stopping the run which is one of the negatives about the Tampa 2. On top of that, I still like our weapons against them. We will see though.
I don't care if you want him to do well... that's your right.  
arcarsenal : 8/4/2013 9:47 pm : link
We don't need to see all the tweets about how much he r00lz, though. At that point, you're asking to get railed on.

I also think it's safe to assume that I'm probably not overly serious around here.. like.. ever.

So.. don't worry about my panties. They're still nice and in place.
LT,  
Jon in NYC : 8/4/2013 9:48 pm : link
just thought I'd let you know the tally of people who have reached out to me either on FB or on XBL to tell me how much you suck is now at 3.

At least you're making an impression?
I didn't  
Jon in NYC : 8/4/2013 9:49 pm : link
think you were serious until this:

It was also one tweet and on a Dallas Cowboys preseason thread. ctfd.
I agree about the tweets  
eliisthemanning : 8/4/2013 9:50 pm : link
For Dallas I think the key is the health of Lee and Carter. Both are extremely athletic and I think fit well with the system. Seeing the hustle by the Dallas D and flying to the football is concerning. But I do think Dallas's DL is too weak.
I still wasn't that serious  
arcarsenal : 8/4/2013 9:51 pm : link
And you're still a fuckin putz.

I'm glad you have a tally  
LawrenceTaylor56 : 8/4/2013 9:51 pm : link
going of how many friends you're making through various social media outlets.

Jon, I've had 5 people on MySpace, 2 on Facebook, 3 on Xinga, and 7 through a company chain mail saying how much you're a dickwad.
this is getting sappy

they look spirited  
mattlawson : 8/4/2013 9:53 pm : link
gave up a few big runs but overall they are shutting down most of anything the Dolphins are throwing at them. its like the 2008 Giants offense they are running though. we are light years past that. thats why i look forward to eli going 15-18 yards downfield routinely on these clowns -- i dont think they'll have an answer.

re

Most of these players will be cut.

Bunch of scabs.

Adam XLII : 8/4/2013 10:30 pm : link
he's the number 1 center in this past draft. That said, I hope Jon Hankins (a buckeye, ew) fucking mauls him this year
As

Hankins is a beast. I loved that pick.
