Morse’s best: Is a Tweet still a Tweet if the symbol for Twitter is now an “X”?

His very first paragraph also nailed it:

“What Did We Learn from the 1st Three Practices?
We didn’t learn much but …”
followed by 18 mostly inconsequential observations.

He repeated one I’m confused by. Morse said “It appeared that Matt Judon was conducting a “Hold In”. That is, not participating in practice due to his contract status.“.

I’m confused about how that would work. Does he go to Bill and say “I want to be paid more so I’m not practicing” or is that a conversation he has with Mayo? How do the coaches respond? Do they just cede him control and let it go or do they say “get in there and cover Gisecki”? Does he just refuse? What then?

I’m thinking it’s much more likely the coaches have kept his load light because they know what he will do and he doesn’t need meaningless preseason reps as much as they need him fresh late in the season. This whole ”hold in” thing is some writers’ fantasy.

Not a fan of Mount Brown as our starting LT, but he's definitely gonna get first crack at it now;

If Quandry Mosely's our #4 Outside CB, then we need to sign another CB.

If Uche wants to sign an extension before the season starts, then it has to be on our terms; otherwise, I want to see more from him before committing the big bucks.

I hope the offense isn't feeling discouraged by their red-zone futility so far in camp; they sure could use some good news somewhere...

Otis Taylor was a very good receiver for KC... But Stanley Morgan should've been the name coming out of that senior committee.
