It seems CBS Sportsline doesn't think we are the favorites

I don't know about Holani's blocking skills - but we need him for depth to spell Walker - who's gonna get tired on his way to 200 yards from scrimmage.

Spelling Walker shouldn't be a problem - it's a common name with only six letters.

It's something to discuss....and maybe the Hawks see it and get annoyed. But a lot of the bulletin board BS is made up anyway. Remember when Jeremy Stevens had the balls to say he thought his team would win, and Joey the Douchbag Porter turned it into an entire thing about him disrespecting Jerome Bettis in his home town? Smart move though, since the Refs bought into it.

I remember it differently. All the talk that year was about Bettis winning a Super Bowl. Stevens said in an interview, "The story of Jerome Bettis returning to his hometown (Detroit) is heartwarming, but it's going be a sad day when he doesn't walk away with that trophy." Which pissed off Joey Porter. And Stevens went on to drop a sure TD catch in that game.

But Stevens was (and is) a loser. And Holmgren is a hypocrite. He said he would shy away from players with troubled pasts and off field issues, and then drafted Koren Robinson and Jerramy Stevens.

So, in your opinion, what Stevens said deserved the fucking ranting and raving douchbag Porter did about it? A few years later Joey was ejected from a game for leaving the sidelines and fighting. He was a fucking coach. Jeremy Stevens is an idiot, but nothing he said Pre Superbowl should have mattered. Where we supposed to say that since Bettis was coming home for the game we didn't expect to win?

But it happens a lot. Rumor is Michael Jordan made shit up all the time. Or blew stuff out of proportion. George Karl once ignored him at a restaurant during the Finals. George didn't want to start "head games". Instead? Jordan used it as motivation and made it personal. It was what fired him up. Joey Porter was just a dumb fuck that was too stupid to know any better. There are few NFL players I hated more than that jackass.

No, and I'm not defending Porter. But Stevens is a huge loser who should have just kept his mouth shut. He SUCKED in that game, dropping a sure TD. To talk tough and then not deliver... sure sign of a loser.

Love the optimism!

Charbonnet might be their second best back but not by much. See on the pff lists, Walker is listed as the 2nd highest graded HB at 88.4, charbonnet is 3rd at 86.7

Off the top of my head, a list of guys I'd be more upset about being without.
This guy used our backup RB being out as reason to pick against us.

I'm a Charb guy, but even if you aren't, the main reason we finally have Walker healthy at the end
of the season is Charb shared the load.

I don't imagine that Holani is the same caliber of blocker that Charbonnet is, but Outz might be?

You're talking about pass blocking? How about handing the ball off to Outz and having Bradford as the lead fullback.

I didn't realize he had been activated but he has along with Arroyo.

Yeah, I expect a lot of 12 and 13 personnel packages as we jam it right down their fucking throats.

Holani said he's been healthy for weeks so they've just been keeping him on ice

Holani said he's been healthy for weeks so they've just been keeping him on ice, ice baby...

Holani & Arroyo now ready for battle - I have also been activated -)

Way more 2 TE sets. Arroyo & Barner.
