Though neuf was pretty off last week and a couple times this year. Might have an injury and seeing how it’ll respond to some rest. JCon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eli at 100% is one of the best in the league and kola is an over achieving replacement level guy. He could probably be a step up at guard for a team or two but he should really be a back up to the 6th man. Booch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QB Dru Brown is back after missing practice Tuesday + last week. Early on WR Carlton Agudosi is getting looks with the 1st team. Would make sense for him to replace Janarion Grant on the roster this week. Tui Eli filling in at guard for Paddy Neufeld today. More from @DTonOB: Demerio Houston & Greg McCrae returning punts today. Abu Daramy-Swaray wins a jump ball vs Rasheed Bailey and Daramy-Swaray is feeling it! And next play Nick Hallett jumps a Schoen crosser for the pick-6! Thanks to Dru Brown for sharing some heart-warming stories about his dad. And his dad's line: "Are you open to some mentorship?" is one I definitely will be stealing. @CJOBchristian will have that interview on the CJOB Sports Show tonight. ---------------------------- Edited July 12, 2023 by JCon Mark F, Blue-urns, wbbfan and 4 others 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two bomber players fathers in short order that really sucks. ****, guys. I’m so sorry to hear you guys have had to deal with this already. My dad had a heart attack in the early days of covid and no one was allowed to go in and see him. The only reason I knew about it was my aunt was a nurse in the ER and called me. But for hours we didn’t know if he was alive or dead. He thankfully survived but even the thought was enough to put me to my knees. And same as you wbbfan, I couldn’t stand the thought of putting my daughters through that feeling. Started to be a lot more health focused again.
