Very odd injury for Prince Amukumara. I'm wondering if it isn't a calf injury the way he couldn't put any weight on it after a seemingly routine play.
Bears look like #$%&. David Wilson looks good. Not so much for Ryan Tannehill. I'll be surprised if Terrell Owens makes the Seahawks roster and Russell Wilson isn't starting.
Russell Wilson is looking very good, this entire preseason. so I think it was a good decision about not playing Tarvaris Jackson and trying to trade him.
I'm really looking forward to this for some reason lol. RG3 showed his speed in the first series, along with a nice throw (although his WR didn't catch it). Now it's Lucks' turn. And is it just me or does Luck look like an NFL veteran? Dude's gonna be awesome.
No one is expecting him to have a winning season, anything above five wins is a bonus. I expect 3-5 win this season.
He already got sacked twice in the first 2 drives. And he got murdered last week. Thank god he's not a Vick-type. He can endure these hits.
Vick can endure more punishment than Luck, it's just that he takes way too many vicious hits. If any other NFL QB absorbed the blows Vick takes, they wouldn't last either. He isn't fragile. Not all sacks are equal when it comes to beating up a QB. Vick has to be more willing to give up on plays by throwing the ball away to avoid sacks and (even moreso) the guy must learn to fall down and curl sometimes when he sees the pocket collapse. Ben Roethlisberger has the same problem. Gotta know when to fold em. A QB can have too much courage for his own good.
Exactly. People label Vick as fragile but he actually takes a lot more punishment than most quarterbacks because of his style of play. He does need to learn when to give up and not try to continue to extend or try to extend the play. There are times when even he needs to throw it away or lie down.
Was that two girls in Rams jerseys that tried to tackle Dwayne Harris or were they just playing like sissies? Wow!
I'm sorry, some of the hits Vick takes and he gets injured from are pretty typical "hits." They're not always hits that make you same "DAMN, that guy tried to kill him." but his style of play does expose him to "hits," and his small stature simply makes him more susceptible to being injured. The hit Luck endured last week when he went in for a rushing TD was what you call a "vicious" hit; he nearly got his head taken off. And he bounced back like it was nothing. No need to shake it off or whatever. You mention Ben, but yet you don't hear many call him as "injury-prone" like you do with Vick. Probably a reason for that. then he's not Michael Vick. If he had a Cam Newton-type of physique, we wouldn't be having this discussion. Lil Pun, ask yourself you're not scared EVERY TIME Vick takes a hit. Every time.
