Woot! Like him better than Huntley. He'll never be elite but he's got a lot of upside, give him a few years of development and he'll turn into a decent backup, have a Matt Flynn game and then get his paycheck with someone else.

Good to see!

The experiences in Clev. and NO will serve him well.

The odds say he'll at best be a back-up; but I see no reason why his ceiling isn't that of Russell Wilson with a minor leg injury.

It's nice to have him back but as I said when GB lost him, it's not that big of a deal. He failed to stick on 3 team's 53 and all the other teams passed on the tremendous opportunity.
Clearly he is not ready for the big time. No I don't mean starting. I mean just sitting on the bench during a game.
Perhaps in 2-3 years it will be a different story.

Yay!
I can dig my Callahan jersey out of the box.
I hope he's got the same number!

Brett Hundley is a much better quarterback than Callahan.

There, I said it. Now go continue your love fest.

Callahan's deep ball speed compared to a true elite QB is like watching a trains vs a person walking. Accurate, doesn't match the NFL speed though.

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.

dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.

Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : The spotting of the ball IS the issue. Not the chain gang.

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Will there be a tracker on the ball or something?

Zero2Cool (1-Apr) : uh oh

Martha Careful (1-Apr) : Too bad camera's can't spot the ball as well.

Mucky Tundra (1-Apr) : So will the chain gang be gone completely or will they still be around as a backup or whatever?

Zero2Cool (1-Apr) : The method for measuring first downs in the NFL will switch from chain gangs to camera-based technology in 2025, the league announced.

Martha Careful (1-Apr) : A big step in the right direction. Just put in the college system is very very good.

Zero2Cool (1-Apr) : NFL has passed a rule that allows both teams to possess the ball in OT during the regular season

Zero2Cool (1-Apr) : Touchbacks on kickoffs will now bring the ball to the 35-yard line.

beast (31-Mar) : It might of gotten more popular recently, but braiding hair (even men) in certain cultures goes back for centuries.
