AFCCG Practice/Info Thread

I kind of feel bad for Edelman because his answer is actually pretty fair. Some teams are looser in regards to stuff like social media and some aren't. But it's getting parroted around by the media in a way that makes it sounds like Edelman is saying that Tomlin is running a circus. Sucks.

The idiot is running a circus. Joey Porter was right in the middle of some soft of "gathering" between chiefs and Squealers players after the game.

From my view his blocking has been above average and occasionally exceptional.

He just doesnt seem to have the burst or grace catching the ball like he used to.

He looks like Daniel Graham out there (which isnt a bad thing)

Thats why we can expect all 5 WRs to be active vs PIT.

What that Howard Stern?

Kind of disagree. It's not like Tomlin let him off the hook, he had some pretty harsh words when questioned about it. Ben too.

Just because you run a tight ship doesn't also mean that people aren't going to pull ****. See also: Wes Welker mocking Rex's fetish.

Usually they have their PS guys mimic tendencies from the opponent's star players in practice. Like for last week, I would guess Foster was Hopkins in some capacity. I edited my post to say it should be the main focus because the running game for them controls the clock and keeps our offense off the field.

Little DJ Foster the RB as DeAndre Hopkins????? Nope - - Devin Lucien the PS WR.

I believe he prefers to be called L'il DJ.

 

[Todd Bradley]

Ladarius Green back to practice for Pittsburgh.

Who know if he dresses, hasn't played a game in almost a month, but I don't think he'll add anything that Jesse James already doesn't for the Steelers.

I have a feeling Amendola is going to have a big game, not only does he always seem to come up clutch, but he seems to be getting overlooked, not hearing anything about him, seems like its kind of forgotten hes on the team, at least I hope the Steelers have

I'm hoping for more from both Amendola and Blount.

Blount wasn't used much last game, likely due to recovering from illness and lack of practice, while I look at the Houston game as an opportunity for Amendola to shake off the rust. Now that that is done, hopefully he is ready to contibute, and that is critical since Floyd didn't impress last game, and Mitchell may have rust issues himself if he is active.

Yup and drew reaction from ben and now we have a story.

 

[SVN]

Good answer. Get to football. God this media drives me up a wall.

LeGarrette Blount won’t talk about differences between Steelers and Patriots

Media trying to create a story.And people wonder why BB/Pats dont talk so much to the media.

Weird to have an off day days before a championship game. I know they are vets but....

Not ideal for the Patriots....but bring em on

Such an incredible pick up, I knew he was gonna be good but wow huge pick up, mastermind billy did it again

If they aren't injured why aren't they out there? It's not smart to miss a day of practice when you already lost time due to scheduling and travel days.

[long distance]

It was full pads. No need to risk the banged up starters fully.

"We already spotted those assholes a day and a half....so i'm going to sit out our two star players from practice this week so I can say we spotted them two and half when we lose"

The whole enchilada:

Ladarius Green back to practice for Pittsburgh.

Who know if he dresses, hasn't played a game in almost a month, but I don't think he'll add anything that Jesse James already doesn't for the Steelers.

Jesse James actually concerns me a bit. It might just be images burned into my mind of Owen Daniels owning us/Jamie Collins last year, and Dennis Pitta in other years, but it seems like TEs tend to do average to above average against our defenses.
