Damn Birdgang. Unsatisfying RedSea...
2 days to the final preseason game...less than two weeks until our glorious 2025 season debut...

And nobody has anything to say.
It's "Content Season" fellas,...so let's see some content!!
There have been more memes posted by Ronin this week than any viable football discussion by anybody.
I mean, OMFG!! Somebody please step up and entertain me...it doesn't have to be epic. Even mildly amusing like K9's stuff is fine.

Anyone wanna to a week by week roster breakdown on our opponents so we can see how we match up??
Maybe scan the leagues bubble players for a viable speed wr or OG candidate??
Not sure who has the #1 offensive line in the league, but whoever they are clutching onto all the way to final cuts?? Well they are probably better than our 4th guard ...

I dunno...the Birdgang has been slipping. We used to get new content every day right up to opening day once camp started.

I'm starting to think some of you might be viewing other message boards.

I’ve been pretty preoccupied with a big upcoming yoga tournament, but here’s my take.
I would bet the over on wins, the division title, and us beating the Falcons in the playoffs in one of the best playoff games ever. I’m all in. Damn the torpedos.
A YOGA tourney!!
Now that's news right there.
Have you been doing competitive Yoga for long??
Is a Semi-Pro type thing or more of a community league? Or is it dog eat downward facing dog every tree reaching for the sun for themselves?

Will Sherman. 6'6" #300 OG
Drafted 6th round. Patriots.
Cut in year 2.
Denver Broncos PS the last couple years.
26 years old.
This year the talk around him is "bubble" instead of PS.
Denver posted the top Oline in the league in 2024...allowing Bo Nix 3.03s time to throw...highest in the league.
Sherman obviously didn't contribute to that from the PS but they keep bringing him back and he is borderline top 53 now.
He seems to have the athletic profile JG likes.
Would Sherman be a better 4th guard for us than Connor?

Realizing he could be cut again and eligible to sign ....
Would it be worth a 7th round pick to remove any chance we don't get him?
Now I'm wishing I paid more attention to Denvers players last week...But I'm sure JG and the boys noticed if he was a player

Idk about "new content" but I'm just ready for the season to start, I have Kentucky football in Lexington next weekend, then our Cards play the following weekend, I'm pumped for all of it.

You mean we can just make stuff up?
Well he'll yeah, why not?
It's the internet. 90% of the information and "facts" are fake as hell and 99% of the population believes it's all 100% true.
It just has to have an intriguing title to motivate interaction...and at least one thing that can be verified as true...or if not true,at least verified to come from someone else so you can deny making crap up.
Other than that, just make it entertaining.

James Conner! Underappreciated key component of the ground game. Finally he may have a perfect side kick in Trey Benson. Let's go!

I’m open for another FF league.

And will wrap-up my series of off-season evaluation after cuts next week

I blame the preseason. It's just a huge waste of time, and the best you can hope for from training camp/preseason is to avoid major injuries.

Vibes feel ok for this group, but definitely more "let's try and make the playoffs" instead of "we should be a serious contender", which is accurate, but after 2 years of zombie football I was hoping for more.

Cards are still plus money to make the playoffs somehow.
Vegas is getting caught up in a RedSea Desert Storm this season.

Atlantic city is gonna love us as all those rich noreasters throw away their cash on ancient divisional hatred.

And, in an interview right before the nfc championship game... JG will respond with a straight fave..." I don't know about that but I know we just need to keep on working to get better."...then he'll break into a wry grin..."at least for two more games...."


And who knows what is gonna happen after that

I know there is already one for the older posters.

But if we can get enough players, sure.

Yahoo with individual defensive players?
It's bad enough having to carry a defense on your roster.
But whoever sets up the league sets the rules

My 14 year old playing tackle football for the first time earned a series of snaps at noseguard in his first freshman game (albeit a blow out) and my sophomore played a third of the snaps on JV at defensive tackle after not getting a single snap last year on Frosh football.

How’s that for content?!?
