NFL Season 2014/2015
Posted: Thu Jun 12, 2014 10:18 amJust thought I would make a new thread since the new seasons only about 80 days away.
Lots of happenings at the moment in the NFL world. Teams are currently at OTA's (voluntary practices, which players get monetary bonus's for attending).
Johnny Manziel drafted by Cleveland has been a huge focus by the media. I was hoping the Texans took him at No.1 , but Im happy with Clowney. Cleveland have pretty much put him and Hoyer, their QBs, on media bans, just so there is less distraction while they sort out who is their No. 1 QB.
In Houston, Texans Offensive Tackle, 23 year old David Quessenberry has been diagnosed with Lymphoma. He has been put on the Non-football illness list so he can get treatment, and return to the team when able.
In New York, the Jets have a decision to make with having 2nd year Geno Smith, and veteran QB Michael Vick on the list. I think this will be one of the better QB competitions during the preseason. No matter who they decide to go with, I think the Jets will have a better season than last year, due to having some maturity at QB, as well as a decent running game care of new recruit Chris Johnson. I can see a lot of play action and QB option plays being run throughout the season.
In Miami, the bullying investigation came to a conclusion, with Richie Incognito being found responsible, along with other players, of systematically bullying their fellow offensive lineman Jonathon Martin. Incognito is still a free agent, and currently undergoing therapy to get himself right and try to make another NFL roster. Martin on the other hand, was signed by the 49ers, to play under his former college coach Harbaugh.
Michael Sam, the first openly gay player to be drafted, was drafted by the St Louis with the 2nd to last pick in the draft. Word is that he's going to do a reality show during the preseason about what it takes to make the final roster. I predict it'll become too much for the Rams, and he won't make the roster. This could also be down to him not being good enough.
Getting keen for the season already. Wish I was in whufc's shoes and going to a game.
