8/6 Practice (and Fan Fest)

[Proudiddy]

that's what i'm talking about!

[Proudiddy]

Does anyone know if Rivera allowed Derek Anderson to come to fanfest? I would assume you would keep that guy chained up in Spartenburg.

I hope he filled up his water bowl before they left

Rachel Nichols in the media room, Smitty talking to ESPN right now.

I'll be in there next year, maybe later this season.

[Proudiddy]

Oooooohhh, you feel that burn John Fox?

Smith says new offense is refreshing. Different sets, unlike old offense. "Its gonna be good".

This is a good call by Chud IMO.

agreed. didn't used to think so, but I think it is now. Might get him beat up, but might as well see if it works as well in the pros...

I definitely think it will. Vick seems to use it a lot in Philly and it served him well last year...

smith: Qbs are doing what hasn't been done here in a long time. Put foot in gas pedal and go hard.

wow.

[monstercat]

I'd rather him watch film on defenses

You do realize that it's possible to do both things, right?

Steve Smith takes some shots at fmr staff. Likes how Chud is moving him around instead of lining him up on 1 side for "70 plays a game."

As long as it is used as a "wrinkle" so to speak and doesn't become the main crux of the offense I will be thrilled. Plus I think Cam can be very effective with it even at this level.

[Jackofalltrades]

As long as he's a threat to both pass and run he'll scare defenses. I want him to be a throw first, run if you gotta QB.

Like a much more athletic McNabb.

I never understood why they didn't move Smitty around more.

josephperson Rivera says they might use a 3rd safety in nickel package. Likes what Jordan Pugh has done.

loving it!

they might be using clausen better, but it's pretty evident that newton fits a lot better what they want to do.

Because Fox was a horrible, unimaginative OC.
