Who knows; we might want to hold onto AJ instead of making him our #1

Looked to me like Tate had the ball by the finger tips, but the DB got a tug on the arm to let it slip away.

Trey Carson and Brian Hill are still looking good to me this preseason

Not if trading for the LT came after a year where you let your All-Pro LT walk and tried replacing him with Ogbuehi.

They needed OL help BEFORE Whit left, and Whit > Glenn, and you lost Zeitler, meaning upgrading your C position still isn't a net positive... so that still puts you behind the 2016 OL, which needed help.

If you had $3 and need $2 more in 2016, and in 2017 I take $2 away from you leaving you with $1... giving you $2 in 2018 doesn't mean you reached your original $5 goal. You're still short $2, just like you were in 2016. (The $ in this lame analogy is good starters on the OL.)


Everyone on the planet knew they needed more OL help, and everyone on the planet (besides apparently the Bengals FO and those chugging the kool aid hard) knew that Hart was a terrible player. (He was the Giant's Ogbuehi last year.) This is just like last year when everyone besides those two aforementioned groups knew Ogbuehi at LT was a terrible idea.

No point getting all riled up about a preseason outing in Dallas (where they win most games in preseason especially in part because they know the refs call almost nothing on them). We knew the OL is a work in progress and - surprise! - it looks like a work in progress. RT and RG are concerns in part because as long as they can be beaten easily the whole OL will have problems getting into a consistent rhythm.

Erickson is just a straight up baller...

[Millhouse]

nice catch by Alex, and good throw too

[Sweetness]

Driskel needs to give Dalton some tips.

[The Caped Crusader]

Erickson got them white boy wheels.

[*bfine32*]

Who knows this Erickson guy might be better than even Tate

[George Cantstandya]

Erickson is going to have a great career for the Patriots some day.

[HarleyDog]

Erickson looks like Eddie Munster.
