Matt Moore is such a blast to watch because teammates love the dude and he's old school as poo poo. He even says it in so many PC words - "you don't make big plays without taking big risks" which poo poo as a dolphins fan is awesome.

I rather out team blow up going for gold rather than up the gut on 3rd and 4 for the tenth time in a drive because our OC is retarded

Falcons and Texans join practice today. That OLine gets to be tested by Watt and Clowney. Sounds like they are holding up pretty well, going back and forth with eachother.

They're doing a pretty good job of earning easy penalties, I guess.

"I came here to argue with you about a freaking television show!"
I remember that and vs the Jets, Tannehill looked befuddled gets hurt. Matt Moore comes in an bombs Marlon Moore for like 40 yards and his this "I don't give a rat's rear end" swagger.

I thought he was going to do that again last season against the Jets but... :cry:

You talking about hands to the face? There is a lot of that in actual games that doesn't get called, so whatevs. Matthews gaining that experience to go up against the best pass rusher in the league is so valuable that I'll take it for the rookie.

e:

I'm sure he will work on getting his hands lower, he seems to take his technique pretty seriously.

Tajh Boyd is a legitimately terrible QB though, receiving options aside. His sole purpose is to make Geno and Vick look great in comparison.

Hands to the face is one of the new points of emphasis this year, so he actually will get called for it because Goodell is a big dumb baby.

He probably would get called for it, which is funny because Watt is trying to go under his arm. It's face to the hands.

Yep. Like I said, I'm sure he knew he was high and will work to get those paws lower, but I like how he got to get that experience against Watt and Clowney. Should only help him this year. Man, that Texans DLine is loving scary.

I thought that this and the new PI rules were only being so heavily enforced for the pre-season. I wouldn't be shocked if they turned into this year's running back lowering the head where there are only like 5 instances of it called all season.

1 Free agent, 1 top 6 pick, benching 1 piece of poo poo, and 1 average player coming back from injury.... boom, rebuilt line. An average OL is all Ryan needed to pull some more W's out last year, but... they were loving god awful.

I'm pretty sure they've just stopped enforcing that rule altogether; reserving it only for the very sickest of hits.

Sorry to steal Raiders fans' thunder, but practice was apparently hilarious today:

Jason La Canfora posted:

Vintage Greg Little - gets 3 steps on the DB down the sideline, wide open, ball hits him right in both hands... and you can guess the rest

The Cowboys D being openly taunted on their own practice field by the legion of Raiders fans in the near stands. Like on every snap

It's gonna get testy here again. F bombs flying between the Cowboys D and Raiders O. All kinds of trash talking in individual drills

Loud cheer of "Romo sucks, Romo sucks, Romo sucks," breaks out on the Raiders fan stands. Yikes. It's special drills. Tony not even throwing

Another fight. We gotta be getting close to a half dozen in these two sessions.

Eagles CB Carmichael still seems to be total crap, much like last year. Seems every big play in practice, it's always him giving it up. Hopefully Nolan Carroll is bringing it as much as camp reports have been making it out so Carmichael doesn't have to see the field too much.

The lesser Zach Miller on the Bear's roster hasn't had a full healthy season since 2011. I'm not really expecting him to beat out Rosario much less Bennett.

Bennett is the best TE in the league after the catch.

Me neither, but there's a good shot he'll be more useful than Davis, Maneri, Adams, Manumaleuna...

Wow, its like every position besides RB that caught passes was clown shoes before Trestman got here.
