Atticus Finch posted:I forgot about Zeitler, but he's coming back in 2 weeks. AJ missed a game and came back the next. The rest will be ready after the bye week (with a big maybe on Burfict). I wouldn't consider any of those injuries major or worth worrying about. Yeah I don't think that they're worrisome or long term problems, but they are major losses within the games. The fact the team has looked as dominant as they have, against pretty good competition, while important pieces are missing at any given time, is encouraging. In particular, no AJ and no Marvin against Atlanta should have been a problem, but the team was able to compensate in a major way. That's impressive to me.

The NFL and their media associates over here love Menelik Watson because he's perceived as having the chance to be a NFL starter (he'll never be a NFL starter but 2nd-round pick from a year ago at a position no-one can evaluate means it'll be a while before people give up on him), he's very visibly and proudly British and is perceived as British first and foremost, he's on a team who probably have more name recognition than almost any other in Britain (you see a LOT of Raiders merchandise in London because of it being a fashion thing and such), and so on. Dude, in Australia in the 90's we got the Darren loving Bennett coverage overshadowing every single aspect of NFL information and it was mind numbingly painful. I hate Darren Bennett so damned much, even though everyone here says he was awesome (probably because he was a football player first and a punter second and actively sought out contact) but when the coverage tries to relate everything about football to one single player on a team you don't care about, it sucks. When that player is a loving punter it's downright infuriating.

Haha mate, two of my friend were up there today. Both British, both Packer fans and well into football. One is volunteering with free tickets to the game tomorrow. They know it's a poo poo match up, you don't live in Britain and follow football to not realise that. It's like if you're a Martian captivated on the goings on of planet Earth. Then some idiot fires a rocket to you with some of the most idiotic humans you know. You don't care, you've fixated on the goings on of these humans whatever they choose to do, you're gonna be so drat excited they're here because it's such a rare and fascinating event. It's your only human fix you're gonna get and you're grateful for it.

Speaking of being fascinated by just how stupid humans are and the things that they can do... http://m.bigskypress.com/GreenRoom/archives/2014/09/26/ill-loving-cut-you-behind-the-scenes-of-the-1491s-segment-on-the-daily-show Here's a behind the scenes write up from Migizi Pensoneau. One of the Native Americans from the comedy troupe, The 1491's, invited to film the Daily Show segment about the Washington name change. Here's an excerpt: quote:The next morning, football Sunday, the three of us went to FedEx Field as part of the show. “The Daily Show” taped us wandering around the “Redskins Nation” tailgate, though that never made it on air. I, rather naively, thought maybe we’d be able use our presence at the tailgate as a way to showcase our humanity, and let the Washington Team know that there are Native Americans out there who are among them—real people not relegated to the eternal myth of history. Maybe we’d change a mind or two. Or, at least, maybe some ignorant hilarity could be caught on camera. It was worth a try, so with a camera crew following us, one little, two little and a third big Indian struck out into FedEx Field’s Redskin Nation tailgate. Sources later confirmed that the "blonde little wisp of a girl" quoted in the bolded text was actually Daniel Snyder in a wig.

He played pretty solidly when he was in last season. Just couldn't stay healthy to the point that he'd make Chaz Schilens feel like ironman. Also it's kind of funny that Jack Crawford got cut in preseason and then got signed to the Cowboys active roster. Totally missing out on his 15 minutes of fame. He would've been the most famous scrub DE in the NFL if he was still on the team. Well, the second most famous.
