NFL Training Camp: Brett Favre-less Daily Notes
Terrell Owens Eats Up Pacman In Round 1
Now that everyone has reported, well, everyone except Brett Favre, we'll turn our daily focus to the training camp developments that we should actually care about.

I probably don't need to tell you this, but the first preseason game is less than a week away. Rejoice!

TO vs Adam HBO's Hard Knocks is going to be incredible, and you can expect a lot more of these star wide receiver, infamous defensive back showdowns. Terrell got the best of Adam Jones on their first matchup, burning the corner formerly known as Pacman, for what would have been a touchdown.

They'll still be terrible Oakland is going to struggle, but any positive news in regards to JaMarcus Russell is progress. Apparently, he's been markedly improved over the first few days of camp and is more than ready to be the man. His holdout definitely hurt his progress last season, but it could have been a blessing in disguise to keep him on the sidelines and learning from the Raiders many mistakes. I predict a better season than most predict in Oakland, even, say 7-9.

Dolphins uninspired by QB competition Tony Sparano and Bill Parcells would like second-year quarterback John Beck to take over the starting position in these early stages of camp. Instead, he had what they are calling his 'worst practice ever' over the weekend. He threw 10 passes in the Dolphins second workout and three of them were picked off. Unfortunately, neither Josh McCown or Chad Henne has performed much better. As I've said previously, it will be Henne's job by midseason.

Speaking of terrible QB's The Rex vs Orton battle is too close to call after almost a week, which is translation for they both haven't been impressive. We'll continue to hear how Orton has the more accurate short game, while Grossman continues to dazzle with his deep balls. Unfortunately, we also keep hearing about their one-upping each other in the interception department. If we had to guess, Rex is the current leader in the clubhouse.

The Coolest Redskins tight end, blogger extraordinaire, Chris Cooley offers up some tips on snagging autographs during his fan appreciation day.

Hey, let's (da Bears) not name a starter.      We can flip-flop between Orton & Grossman the whole game.      Between them, or by combining them, we have a very good QB; Orton can read a "D" better and handle the short/medium passing.    Sexy Rexy loves to throw deep.     So, let's not have a 'starter', let's use both during the game, heck even on the same drive !

 

This will force the defense to prepare for each, and will be slightly more difficult to 'game plan' for !       Plus, let's face it, neither will suffer all that much by not having 100% of the snaps in practice; they've been the same for 3+ years, so they're about as good as they're gonna get !

 

Lovie, why not.......it can't hurt.....can it ??

I think having TO burning ADAM Jones, will make him (Adam) a much better player.
TO, Moss, and THE CHAD are kind of in a league of their own.
Nice to have practice against one of those guys.

Jones will be much needed help to the Cowboys, anything less than  a play-off win this year will be a major LET DOWN!!
