With Coleman, resting/recovering, Seantavius Jones has stepped up...

Payton spoke glowingly how Jones added honest, effective downfield blocking and that he seems to have found an extra gear as Coleman has shown in camp...

And we'll find out in the preseason game against the Ravens, but so far Stephone Anthony not only looks like he'll justify his selection in the first round, but he may have been a steal there and will be the best MLB we've had since Sam Mills...

I don't get it. You imply there wasn't any good news until the report on Ingram, yet for two weeks we heard mostly good news every day.

Up until now I have heard much more bad than good. Take injuries out of the equation. First there was the Gillette thing that was definitely negative news. The line had not looked like the revamped line that we thought they would see. Drew has thrown several of the worst passes in his career. Confusion along defensive line. Overall sluggish practice altogether. Read several articles on above and heard the same on 870 sports. Even Jim Henderson said he isn't impressed thus far. Maybe I am used to the media citing how much talent and how great we have looked in previous preseasons which I never bought into anyway. There has been a lot of negative talk in the media which is why I tried to post a positive thread.
I'm not saying there aren't things to get excited about. I am just saying the media has chosen to report on a lot of negative stuff.
And I don't know why on earth you singled out Ingram, I named several players on offense and defense.

I try not to read too much into the early reports from camp. We are all chomping at the bits for info, but camp stories are the same every year. The vet who is suddenly looking good..someone looks ready for a bounce back, someone struggling with an injury, someone who is supposed to be good but struggling, someone we have never heard of making impressions...etc...etc..etc. Around the 3rd preseason game, it will all come into focus.

I have a blah feeling about this team. Think we wasted money in places and we'll never see Byrd play up to his pay. O-line will be improved but still some holes. Tons of injuries in training camp.

Then again, I'm the guy who felt this way before the 2009-2010 season and I got rid of my season tickets............
