This is nice to see...

It seems like JP Losman and Jason Peters are starting to form a good relationship. I like that Losman is in between both starting offensive tackles in the stretching after practice too.

Mikey, please tell me that Losman looks good out there and all this Holcomb crap is just a joke!?!?

I'm not sure I can do that. Losman looks really good, but sometimes he looks off. I really believe that the competition is a good thing for him, but the way it's getting done is not right. It seems like sometimes the QB will get 3 or 4 plays in and then it goes right to the other QB, and sometimes they only get 1 play in and rotate 1 or 2 plays a piece. I also think that it's making the offense so it's not in sync right now and it's starting to show at times in practice. Jauron better think of a new way to do that because this to me doesn't seem like the right way.

Oh, another thing that doesn't help is that sometimes they are counting handoffs as their reps with the starters and that skews things a bit.

I will also say this.... the defense is jelling nicely and looks like it's a lot better right now. The defensive line is especially starting to show good penetration and cause problems with the OL.

Dick is starting to show some of his warts. I'm afraid in the interest of competition that he is hurting the team. From what I've read and heard from people who have been at camp, Losman looks better when he is in for longer periods of time. That makes sense since the offense starts to feel comfortable and then they jerk him out and noodle arm goes in and throws it all to *****.

That's what I've noticed too. If I were to put all the practices and include the backup reps in, I think that JP Losman is in the lead right now. But like you said, it hasn't been fair to either of the QBs with how it's gotten done. I'd like to see JP get like 10 plays and then Kelly get 10 plays. Let them get a chance to feel comfortable. That would show u who is better.

Mikey, why the hell aren't we coaching this team?

Good question. Didn't most of us want that good coach from Green Bay? Mike Sherman?

I think I disagree with this a bit.
I would bet that they have a schedule for how long this QB neutrality goes on, and we are not at that point yet.
When we hit it, and I bet its a date as much as an objective decision on who is doing better, the starter will be obvious and getting most of the time with most of the starters, with others filling in in spot positions because of eventual roster decisions. Like sticking in the fourth wide out with the starters just to decide who to keep etc.

I would draw no conclusions about any of this from the first week of practice. I think they have a plan to get the eventual starter all he needs, but in due time.

Good point. It's a long camp.

I hope you're right...I really do.

Is that because the DL is playing well or the OL just blows?

I think it's because the DL is playing really well. But some of the OL blows. They have no depth. And Fowler hasn't done anything to impress me.

I miss Trey Teague.
