Although I don't like his comments sometimes, I can live with that. The 13 drops really bothers me more than anything. I'm not hating on him when I mentioned the trade, it just a player of high value where a defensive player of the same talent at those positions would help us more and there wouldn't be a huge dropoff from our replacements. Hell, if they would do it I would trade Finley, Jones and a 1st for JJ Watt!!! Too bad the Texans don't have that need.

Maybe it's not normal for him but it still begs the question: What the fuck, dude? Thirteen fucking drops?!?

I was pleased to hear Finley say he was going to "freestyle" this season, and by his definition that is "Just go out and let loose. Don't worry about anything." I think we'll see an improved Finley this season. I wouldn't be surprised if he tops 65 receptions, 900 yards and 10 TD'S.

The 13 drops hurt for sure when a guy acts like he should be the go to receiver on the team. It wasn't just the 13 drops that hurt but if my memory serves me correctly...many of them were drive ending drops in pressure situations. 55 receptions is awesome for any TE...but 55 receptions to 13 drop ratio is unacceptable at a professional level.

Nah, actually I expected most people to get it.

Now, people might not know who the Purple People Eaters were....but those were Vikings, after all, so who cares.

Finely made a nice grab on a high throw to keep the drive alive for their first TD. That was a game changer.

It felt great. Not extra work at all. It was much-needed. It was great to get reps from both quarterbacks. I know we talk about ‘12’ all the time but Graham did an awesome job today.

It’s beneficial, for sure. It was good to get my feet back under me overall and get the conditioning up. I’m just excited for next week, man.
