Brandon Williams does not turn his head around in the endzone giving up a Denver touchdown.

Why am I watching this?
I keep asking myself the same thing. Not really anything I can even complain about.

Poor Caleb Wilson. I want the guy to at least make the practice squad, for whatever reason.

I can see bagging on the starters for poor play, but the dudes trying to define their career path? That seems different. It’s this collective ******** mojo that will keep the valley from seeing a championship. I truly believe that. There’s no spirit, there’s no community, there’s nothing from this fan base that makes any player want to play here. Peeing on some poor bastard that likely has to redefine his life is something that the football gods won’t overlook.

What are we referencing? Brandon Williams?

I don't think anyone here has been too terrible in what they've said. In all honesty, this team has given a guy who changed positions in his final year of college football every single opportunity out there.

I'm slightly sympathetic to the fact he might have to go find a new job soon, but he's played what... three years? At a higher pay rate than most of us on this board will ever achieve? He has made more than $2 million for three years of work, because we drafted him astronomically high.

If he was smart with his money, he won't have to work the rest of his life, or he can make passive income while barely doing anything.

In news for anyone still lurking around, and a thread I don't want to make, Rosen did not win the starting job in Miami.

That's interesting.

Get rid of the fourth pre season game. This is brutal to watch.

#63 from pre season game #1 as the backup left tackle to being cut in a matter of 3 weeks. Penalty machine

The desperation on Kanoff's face is a little rough. Like he knows it's the last time he'll stand on this stage, or play the game.

Ugh.

I switched to ASU very quickly.

Jayden Daniels is going to be good 3 years from now.
Hope so. But I'd like to see how he handles the contact he's going to see soon. And I'd really like to see him find his way to the weight room, my wrists look bigger than any part of his arm.
Agreed with both of you. Although as I was typing it, he had an iffy throw on the run.

If what leads to championships is players wanting to play here, and players want to play here because fans are nice, we should have a couple SB rings by now. This is one of the softest fan bases in the NFL. We constantly settle for mediocrity and excuse poor play. You want to see a tough fan base try Philly. Or New York. Yet they've had more success than we have. There's no correlation there.

I'm not sure your take is accurate, but I was asking myself the same questions about fan-morale.

I'm just not 100% convinced that low fan morale has that much an impact on team performance, FA signings etc.,, though it may turn out that our suspicions are justified.

A good topic for a new thread?
