Around the NFL Preseason week 3

If I'm Miami I'm keeping Moore as the #2 and cutting Garrard.

A passing league you say?

Bears OC Mike Tice says he wants Forte and Bush to BOTH rush for 1,000 yards this season.

Really, after getting Brandon Marshall, you make a statement like this? I wonder if this is an indication of the trust level in Mr. Interception, Jay Cutler?


Despite upgraded passing attack, Bears still committed to run - Chicago Sun-Times (http://www.suntimes.com/sports/football/bears/14686110-606/despite-upgraded-passing-attack-bears-still-committed-to-run.html)

Highly unlikely now that Cutler has a line that protects him and an actual WR in Marshall.

Definitely. Matt Moore played great last year late in the season. For about a month, he was the top QB (at least fantasy-wise) in the league. I picked him up on a few teams as a fill-in. :D

At one point, he was in a 11 TD- 1 INT stretch with a couple of 3-TD pass games. That one INT was against the Skins.

He played well against us too. He's mobile and fairly accurate most of the time.

Tannehill has the upper hand despite being the rookie, he played in this system at A&M, so Moore is actually the newcomer to the system. Interesting how that worked out.

Cutler was lighting it up last year before he went down and Cutler was flat out ballin against us last week. Now he has Marshall and Jeffery? Chicago will be throwing and running the ball with confidence this year. I wouldnt be bringing my safeties up in the box against Bears.

Yeppers, seems that obvious to me to.

After watching the Cardinals and Titans last night and having my Fantasy draft this Monday, the only guy you can possiblly consider taking in a fanatsy draft from the Cardinals is Fitzgerald and even then that scares me. The Cardnals may not win a game this year. Thier OL and QB play is dreadful.

I think, and have thought this for many years, that Berman is pretty terrible on air. Off air though, he's totally fine. When new people are hired he's one of the first to welcome you, ask if you need anything, can he help you settle in, etc. I wouldn't judge him based on a simple YouTube clip.

To say he just happened to be there when ESPN started is akin to saying Matty just happened to be there when this website began. Berman's been as instrumental as anyone in building ESPN.

My feeling is similar to what many of his current and ex colleagues, unbelievable respect for what he's done and the paths he laid down for people like myself, but it's probably time for him to hang up the mic

Fair enough. My point was originally that i cant stand to listen to him. He grates on my nerves and he is just bad. That clip of him just didnt help my opinion. However i am sure the man is not a total d-bag. We all have our moments. So point taken and nice to know he is actually pretty nice. As for the being there in the beginning well i just meant that his position greatly out weighs his credentials. Im taking it that you work for espn or in the sports world. That is awesome.

Back in the day Berman was the man. He definitely helped put ESPN on the map.

That said he's overstayed his welcome. His act got tired a long time ago. Hearing him in the booth last night was just painful. Kolb to Fitzgerald, HELLOOOOOO. I'm like dude why are you yelling?

Like I said, I don't care for him on-air. Never have quite honestly. Disagree though that his position outweighs his credentials.

I can tolerate him doing NFL games, thought putting him on US Open Golf coverage was just abominable.

Anyway, to repeat (and echo what Matty's said), tremendous respect for what he's done, but time to move on. Bob Ley (the other original on-air guy still there), on the other hand can stay as long as he wants
