I read that Dorsey is probably out for the year with a torn Bicep. Too bad. He was doing great things in S.F.
Watching this game now, had it DVR'ed. James Wright didn't make a catch last year, but gets drafted. Then in his first game as a Pro, catches a TD pass... Here is a write-up with a pic. In the pic is also Philip Gaines, I saw him play in a number of games at Rice last year. http://www.nola.com/lsu/index.ssf/2014/08/former_lsu_wr_james_wright_hit.html
Tonight the Saints vs the Rams. The Rams have a couple former Tigers... #72 Joe Barksdale T St. Louis Rams #90 Michael Brockers DT St. Louis Rams
Jarvis Landry punt return......... http://www.nfl.com/gamecenter/20140...ameinfo|contentId:0ap3000000375846&tab=videos
Craig Loston came down on kickoff coverage and only allowed be returner to the 15 yard line after taking it out of the end zone. The was the ATL vs Jacksonville game.
Got to see some of the Bill's/Panthers game. Trai Turner looks really good coming in from college, played very well for his first Pro game. On the other side Brooks still looks good as a backup with the DB's. Kyle Williams can still hang with the best of them.
Congrats to Alfred Blue, playing for the Houston Texans. He was tonight's "Yahoo Sports Fantasy Football Standout." 5 rushes for 30yds, 6 ypc.
