Wasn't #41 supposed to be a speed guy at LB? Wasn't that what we drafted? Seems every RB the Patriots had he was watching the dude run right past him and catching passes behind him.

I don't think we win this game if Brady plays all four quarters. Just a hunch.

Yea #41 is Zack Cunningham, rookie backer drafted in second round out of Vandy. He looked real good in the Carolina game but got beat badly vs the Pats. Maybe he will redeem himself in NOLA.
Keep an eye Saturday on another rookie backer, Dylan Cole. He's an undrafted rookie FA who's been tearing it up who looks to make the 53-man roster.
Everybody is pulling for Quess, hope he plays well in NOLA Saturday because it's an important game for all trying to make the 53-man roster.
And here's a reminder about this years cuts down to 53 - it's only one cut to 53, new policy is no more intermediate cuts, so just one cut en mass from 90 all the way to 53 on Sept 1.

Clearly a quick healer...

Mama Ellington apparently had a system. Andre is Child A. Bruce is Child B. I'll bet the next child's name starts with C.

I've always said the best performers in exhibition season (regardless of sport) are the ones who have no guarantee of future employment.

They are cousins. Cou-sins. That means that one is the child of the other's aunt or uncle.

Or, as they say in Buford Holler, datin' material!

Haha! Good catch! My reading comprehension skills have suffered since I started working for the government. They're so good at meaningless polysyllabic gibberish mixed with confusing acronyms.

It seems there's an acronym for everything with the VA - except one. That was the Dental Inventory Center. I began asking why there was no acronym given for that one. This got all the old hens cackling. Well, apparently, it's been renamed now.

Wait - you are an employee of the federal government?

That is better than anything I could have imagined.
