Whew... Chris Johnson is looking more like CJ2K again. Put on a dirty move during the Titans/Bucs game tonight. Feeling bad for Blount though, that knee shot did not look good.

I knew last year coming off that holdout he'd have a down year but he heard the whispers and is hungry this year. Wouldn't be surprised if he had a better year than any RB.

Still my favorite

Yeah man. Thats right along my thinking from last year. Big Contract + Hold out gave him too much time to rest on his laurels. He is going to need to have a pretty big year with a suspension/return from Knee injury for Britt, and a transition in QB inevitably happening.

I just want to see what this team can do with him, Britt, and Cook all out there at the same time playing at a high level. The offense has potential to be nasty if they can just get on the same damn page.

On another note.. I'm excited to see Ryan Williams play this year for the Cardinals. I think he is going to have a hell of a year.

Kirk Cousins gonna fetch us a good pick in a couple years. Boy led us back from a multiple possession deficit

**Prince** · 08-19-2012, 02:43 AM

Matt Flynn must not want to start. Russell Wilson outplaying him in both games so far this preseason.

**Knicks4life** · 08-19-2012, 02:51 AM

Russell Wilson is playing against second/third stringers and five of Flynn's seven incompletions were Terrell Owens targets including a 46 yr TD drop.

**BlueBaron** · 08-19-2012, 03:06 AM

Flynn will be the starter. I don't think they would have signed him to back up Russell Wilson.

**Diable** · 08-19-2012, 03:35 AM

I believe that Wilson is going to be a starter in the NFL, but after you give Flynn the money they are going to make him lose the job. Wilson is going to be a competent NFL QB. Only thing going against him is his height. He has everything else.

Wilson is also playing with second and third stringers. It kind of cancels out that argument. If he was playing with the starters against backups then you can make this point, but if he's playing with second stringers it does not make any sense.

Ouch, $10M guaranteed for Flynn? I still don't think they start him, or not for long. Coaches & GM's jobs are on the line.

I think Flynn will be the starter opening day. I think they pretty much have to after the contract they gave him. I just wouldn't be surprised to see Wilson starting at some point for Seattle.

I don't really buy into the whole issue with height. I mean Drew Brees is only an inch taller than Wilson and he turned out just fine.

ATLien · 08-19-2012, 11:00 AM

Kevin Kolb is a pretty expensive back up too

**Prince** · 08-19-2012, 11:08 AM

^ This

Just noticed that Blaine Gabbert had a pretty good game the other day. 13/16 112 yards and 2 TDs. Not bad. Having Blackmon is going to do wonders for him.
