He's been mentioned to being a tweener. Hopefully that weight lose helps him get to where he needs to be as an OLB.

If people aren’t aware of the furor if the comic critics on YouTube, they will enjoy it. I was unaware and looking for a reason to join the mob, but it’s just another fun Marvel movie. I thought the character arc was decent. If you don’t expect it to be feminist in nature, then I don’t know what to tell you, but it’s mostly a good superhero film with basic issues like any superhero movie.

Enjoy

I expect it to be feminist, but I am not like those that try to look for reasons to hate a movie. I go in with my own opinion (usually optimistic) and watch the movie from there. If it is bad or good then I got it from the level of enjoyment I got out of the movie. Good to hear you liked it, too. I am expecting a good 7/10 movie with the credit scenes giving some juicy stuff.

I don't like it because Marvel pretty much stole Captian Marvel from DC (I know rights expired) and I like Shazam a lot more than Marvel's Captian Marvel

You'll enjoy it. In terms of politics, I thought it had considerably less than Black Panther, which I also enjoyed. I think the major issue was less about the movie and more about Brie Larson's comments.

I'll be honest and say I don't watch it because it's boring to me. I don't watch any sport where scoring is so low. That includes soccer, hockey, and baseball. Obviously it's a personal choice and many people love baseball or it wouldn't be able to pay it's players the exorbitant amount of money they do.

it is, but with Chandler and Banks, you at least have some semblence of experience and production. and you hope for a year 2 bump, especially wiht the upgrades at coaching....still safe to call it a ?mark tho. i am interested to see how, if at all, Jordan has improved. agree about the vision 100%. he's not a bad runner, he's physical, and has decent speed. he just needs to see the field better....a lot better actually lol.

to me, the biggest ?mark is DL. and it's mainly because aside from Gooden, there's just not a lot of production coming back....so we really have no idea how that is going to look on a game to game basis.....i don't know how that can't be our biggest ?mark....getting Solomon eligible would be make me feel better here....

OL is 2nd biggest...while i think we're definitley getting an upgrade in talent, we've gotten really young. so i still expect some growing pains. excited about WM getting as many reps at LT. he'll need it, and if he can be our LT, that gives us options elsewhere on the line, which we'll need.

LB is 3rd to me. a lot like the OL, there's a big infustion of talent, but we get younger. i'll be surprised if HT and QC aren't regulars during the season. and we absolutely need guys like Ried and Peterson to step up. not having DKjr, may be addition by subtraction at this point, as Taylor and Bituli should be the anchors.

i feel good about QB, WR, TE and all our DB's....

so, LSS, we're still addressing LOS on both sides, though i do feel better, right now, about the prospects of the OL given the personnel at least, than i do about the DL. and again, that's just because i haven't seen it yet. they could be great. there's a list of what we think are good names at DL. and we'll need them to take some big steps this off season.

I think I've read a number of times that the 3 down linemen in a 3-4 scheme are the "least" (relatively speaking) important positions for the scheme. I've also read that the secondary is the most important (relatively speaking) position group for any defense in any scheme. That puts the linebackers in the middle. The downside of losing DKjr, if we lose him, is that we may be losing the smartest guy on that side of the ball. JJ Peterson apparently doesn't have eidetic memory. Crouch may be the guy we have to rely on in the future to run our defense and to be fair I think most people expect JJP to stay outside. I like JJP's speed, athleticism, and aggressiveness but some of this stuff is probably over his head, at least for now. I don't think he's a football junkie like most of his teammates. He's always been a standout on the field because of his physical advantages. I think it could take him a while to "learn" the defense and so in the meantime we have to figure out how to use him in ways that can help us. He could actually end up being pretty good. I just think the question is when more-so than if.

I think we have probably 7 guys that can start on the OL. I know some people are projecting Kennedy will start at center; I'm not sure about that. He could but Ryan is probably going to figure into the mix somewhere. Ryan and Jahmir are the two returners with the most experience from last year. They were arguably also the most durable.

Overall, i think we're good to go on offense and should take a big step forward. I think we have to sort out the safeties and star position on defense and find some linebackers that are consistent playmakers.. We need to improve at stopping the run. The DL is tasked with occupying some of the blockers, as many as possible and, in a 3-4, as I understand it, it's primarily up to the linebackers to make the plays. at or behind the LOS.

One of the reportedly best defensive fronts we played against last year was supposedly Auburn. We only rushed for 68 yards but it was our best passing game performance in over 2 years. Of course if we can't stop the run our pass defense will seemingly look pretty good because everyone will just run on us.. But if we can stop the run we better be able to cover in the passing game unless we want to be the first SEC team to lose to a team that has an existing losing streak going against every single one of the 13 other teams in the conference.

I like our starting cornerbacks. We need to figure out the backups.

The biggest question about the LSU scandal is "Why was the head coach on the PHONE discussing this?" Did Will Wade miss the NCAA Head Coach cheaters class? You always have a peon handle the discussions with the bag men. Plausible Deniability!

Will Wade will never coach again since he decided to handle the phone calls himself. Ha

I actually really like what I have seen so far from the Shazam movie. First DC movie in a long time that I actually want to see. Picked a good actor for the Shazam roll, too.

I enjoyed Black Panther. Was it the best Marvel movie made so far? Not at all, but definitely a great one. What comments did Brie Larson make? I have tried to stay in the dark with this movie as much as possible.
