some folks have a marriage to fight for, kids to grind for, some folks in between jobs, some folks simply trying to figure out their next move.. send up a prayer instead speaking down on situations you can’t relate to.

I'm a little bit surprised the Redskins haven't made a visit to Trent Williams yet. They are off in Richmond tomorrow. Dan Snyder should get Moses and Scherff and fly to Texas for a heart-to-heart to try to mend fences.

In his prime, Donald Penn was a technician in pass protection and a mauler in the run game. But now he’s 36 and coming off two injury-shortened seasons. What does he have left in the tank to offer the #Redskins? I took a closer look https://t.co/rgHc5gcNrc pic.twitter.com/VWS5SuVT4N

The #Redskins offense under Gruden has been a dink and dunk passing game. With the new interference replay rule, Jay must call more deep shots. By doing such, the running game will improve and provide Reed and Davis with more space in the middle. No risks, no rewards. pic.twitter.com/Tg0J8FAMEB
— Ed Sheahin (@NFLPhotoGuy) August 2, 2019
Utilizing Guice in the passing game is something I always hoped for. I think it maximizes his effectiveness and suits his strengths.

Haskins. Singleback. Gruden says "Feel the heat" to tell him to throw "hot" . Paul Richardson runs short comeback on right side. Gruden yells "Let it rip!" Haskins throws it and it hits the dirt short. Gruden yells, "We gotta have that!"

There are certainly times you could trim the verbiage and go with one or two word calls. But the Skins like to mix and match concepts and more verbiage gives them more flexibility to adapt in game. Once you get playcall structure down, it becomes easier https://t.co/JpkIsDUkiD

Thing that bugs me most about the 71 situation is seeing so many people turn on him. Idc about him not playing a full season in yrs. Idc about the suspensions. He’s matured and he’d play on one foot if they’d let him. There’s a way to discuss the situation w/o disrespecting him

Highest percentage, uncatchable passes on targets in 1-20-yard range in 2018:
— Steve Palazzolo (@PFF_Steve) August 2, 2019
1. Josh Rosen 27.9%
2. Lamar Jackson 25.6
3. Mitchell Trubisky 24.2
4. Josh Allen 23.8
5. Jameis Winston 22.2
6. Blake Bortles 20.3
6. Ben Roethlisberger 20.3
8. Sam Darnold 20.0
9. Marcus Mariota 19.9
This explains why the #Colts were working out RBs: They placed RB Spencer Ware on the Reserve/Physically Unable to Perform List. His season is over.
— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) August 2, 2019
Spencer Ware has $300,000 in per game roster bonuses that he won't earn.
— Nick Korte (@nickkorte) August 2, 2019
If those don't count, $955,000 with no snap count boost is unlikely to allow him to qualify for the 2020 compensatory formula.https://t.co/BB9iZsqLtH
