Anyone else watching?

I'm keeping an eye on it. Highlights:

Favre looks rusty, but to be expected, obviously.

Harvin made a nice snatch on a low throw.

Chiefs D stuffed Peterson on short yardage.

Bowe running with the first stringers again, guess Haley's done motivating him.

 

[seahawk 17]

Farve 1/2 for about six yards. AP stuffedon 4th and 1. KC is now driving.

 

[seahawk 17]

Cassel looks really good so far.

 

[seahawk 17]

KC 3-0

 

[The Jacket]

Cassel looks really good so far.

Yeah, Cassel is impressive, but that OL is utter garbage. He's extremely mobile but he can't run for his life all year.

Minn is a tough test though too.

 

[seahawk 17]

Brett has been sitting home on the couch and it shows.

 

[VTjkru]

So surreal seeing him come out of the tunnel in that uniform.

 

[seahawk 17]

Cassel sacked, Minn D has settled down and is playing with a nice pass rush.

 

[seahawk 17]

Cassel fumble, offense recovered and they are punting.

 

[seahawk 17]

Jackson is now at QB.

 

[lyon812]

Jaymar Johnson getting his share of looks.

 

[seahawk 17]

Jackson throws the ball after he is 4 yards past the line of scrimage, Vikings punt.

 

[Rylenol]

LJ bustin out an 18 yrd run

 

[The Jacket]

LJ bustin out an 18 yrd run

The only shred of daylight he's seen.You know, I've thought LJ is undervalued, but this OL is so damn bad that he'll struggle this year.

 

[Rylenol]

Where would you rank this OL? Damn, Cassel to Bowe TD. Cassel put together a nice drive there.

 

[seahawk 17]

Cassle to Bowe TD.

 

[mcintyre1]

LJ bustin out an 18 yrd run

I think once teams start to respect the passing game, he might see a little more open running lanes. Then again, that should have happened last year too.

 

[seahawk 17]

OL has been horrible....Cassel has been running for his life and LJ is 8/23 but 18 of that was on one run.

 

[The Jacket]

Bowe is going to have a great year.

 

[meeka]

In regards to the KC O-Line....Cassell has had more time tonight than what Manning did last week. MN can really get to the qb.

 

[seahawk 17]

Why is AP still in the game?

 

[mcintyre1]

Tahe hasn't looked great at FB... any chance the Vikings look at Lorenzo Neal? Even as old as he is, he's gotta be a better blocker

 

[jurb26]

Why is AP still in the game?

Because the Vikes have gone 3 n out on every drive until now.

Being a fellow Pittsburgh fan, I was wondering if he could beat out Davis/Summers.

 

[lyon812]

Jackson drives for a TD! Start the QB controversy!

 

[Jeff Tefertiller]

this is my fear as well

If they wanted him for blocking, there's no doubt he could. Unfortunately, the Steelers seem to want more of a receiving fullback. If they didn't I don't know why they ever released Kreider.

 

[ScottyFargo]

I tried to tell you all about Shiancoe, he is going to have a great year.

 

[seahawk 17]

All of Jackson's passes have been high. Wade and Shincoe have helped him look good.

9/10 is 9/10 Lets hope Favre plays better next game or the media will actually entertain the idea that there is a QB controversy.

106 yards and a TD on top of it.

 

[None_More_Black]

Is Brett's 12 mil guaranteed?

 

[Chicago Hooligan]

"As to this year, that amount [$12m] essentially became guaranteed when Brett walked on the practice field Tuesday as he will be paid his salary were an injury to occur." sez Andrew Brandt

 

[Kool-Aid Larry]

It is once the season starts.

But if you're lucky, he'll retire before then.

 

[seahawk 17]

Jackson's auditioning for a job tonight for another team. He should have been motivated before this and Farve wouldn't even be on the team.

 

[lyon812]

He looked pretty motivated at the end of last year, yet they still brought in Rosenfels.

 

[FreeBaGeL]

What channel was this on?

 

[Kool-Aid Larry]

I guess the Raiders must be really motivated this year.

Look out NFL........

 

[bcr8f]

Bowe is going to have a great year.

Facing double coverage all year I don't think so. Who else do they have to cover?

 

[bcr8f]

I tried to tell you all about Shiancoe, he is going to have a great year.

Based on a pre season game T Jackson will be MVP. It's pre season.

plus tough schedule including NFC East

Im streaming it.

OH IS IT, THANKS I WASN'T AWARE OF THATIt's still not too late to trade for him then if you've already drafted, because he is going to have a great year. You can thank me later, cheese breath.

 

[QUEZILLA]

So I guess we shouldn't look too much into those Bowe / dog house rumors?

 

[Jon_Moore]

He looked pretty motivated at the end of last year, yet they still brought in Rosenfels.

That's how I saw it too. Jackson showed some serious improvement last year, but they still brought in Rosenfels. Now he looks sharp in pre-season, Favre looks god awful, now of course it's pre-season, and Favre is rusty--but it's lame he's playing good and the odd man out. Favre wouldn't be rusty if he had been a man and come to camp.

 

[seahawk 17]

Another Jackson TD.

Well said. I'm sure Favre will settle in and do fine. I just don't understand Minn's treatment of a young QB who they KNEW was going to be a project--hell, finding a development guy was the point, according to Childress--and seemed like he was starting to put things together in his third year. You'd think they woulda been happy.Nice rope to Reynaud there. I'm glad to see Jackson has some fight in him.

Which contract is more prohibitive to cut, Tarvaris or Sage? They may be more inclined to try to trade Sage than outright cut Tarvaris.
