Greg Olsen (Carolina Panthers) - five catches, 122 yards, 78-yard touchdown
Trailing 10-7 to San Francisco in the second quarter Sunday, the Carolina Panthers needed a spark in a home matchup with the 49ers. Enter Greg Olsen. Quarterback Cam Newton found the Pro Bowl tight end wide open in the middle of the field, and connected on a career-long 78-yard, go-ahead touchdown to take a 14-7 lead. Olsen, who made five catches for 122 yards, led all tight ends in yardage for Week 2, guiding Carolina to a 46-27 win.
Travis Benjamin (San Diego Chargers) - six catches, 115 yards, two TDs
In need of an explosive option for its offense this past offseason, the San Diego Chargers signed wide receiver Travis Benjamin to a four-year, $24 million contract. Benjamin came through in a big way in Sunday’s 38-14 blowout of Jacksonville, totaling a game-high 115 receiving yards on six catches with two touchdowns. Benjamin pushed San Diego’s early lead to 14-0 with a six-yard TD in the second quarter, and hauled in a 45-yard TD from quarterback Phillip Rivers in the third to help put the game away.
Clive Walford (Oakland Raiders) – six catches, 50 yards, one touchdown
Many experts predicted Oakland Raiders second-year tight end Clive Walford to have a breakout year in 2016. Walford displayed that potential in Sunday’s disappointing 35-28 loss to Atlanta. Walford caught six passes – double his Week 1 total of three – including a 31-yard touchdown from quarterback Derek Carr to open the second-half scoring. Walford, who caught 28 passes for 329 yards in his rookie season, is on pace for a big season with the Raiders.
Andre Johnson (Tennessee Titans) – game-winning 9-yard touchdown
With the game clock ticking down to under 90 seconds in the fourth quarter, the Tennessee Titans turned to their most player for a big play. As he has done on countless occasions through his 14 seasons in the NFL, Andre Johnson came through. Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota lofted a pass into double-coverage and Johnson came down with the ball, scoring a nine-yard touchdown to give Tennessee a 16-15 win over Detroit. The touchdown reception was the 69th of Johnson’s illustrious career.
Ladarius Gunter (Green Bay Packers) – six tackles, one forced fumble
Making his first career start in the NFL on Sunday Night Football, Green Bay Packers’ second-year defensive back Ladarius Gunter enjoyed an impressive performance in a 17-14 loss to host Minnesota. Gunter totaled a team-high and career-best six tackles (all solo) and also forced a fumble in the second quarter. Gunter, who had just two tackles in his rookie season of 2015, figures to be an impact player in the Green Bay secondary in 2016.

The Color Guard is where fat hillbilly heifers Guard against people of Color.
Can't have too many colored people running on the field at the same time, so they guard against that by putting their large unattractive bodies in the way of the players, while holding large flags.

When you get a classes that includes guys Travis Rudolph, Dalvin Cook, Levonte Whitfield, George Campbell, Deondre Francois etc etc you can afford to miss on a 4-star WR. Thats where we need to be and I think we get there soon.
I know I Was more pissed over Rudolph, all Goldens dumb ass had to do was let him play his natural position.
Posted by: UMike | September 22, 2016 at 09:43 AM
Francois will be considered a bust by the end of the year. Soft and weak.
Posted by: Lur-ker | September 22, 2016 at 09:46 AM
The Chargers signed TE Austin Traylor to their practice squad on Tuesday, possibly hinting Gates' absence from Wednesday's practice was more than a day of veteran rest. Beat writer Michael Gehlken suggests fellow practice squad TE Asante Cleveland could be promoted to the 53-man roster before Sunday
Posted by: Ohio_Cane | September 22, 2016 at 09:54 AM
I caught Asante's only college TD on video from the corner of the end zone at PITT a couple years ago.

Not sure anyone starting as a true freshman at FSU would be considered a bust at year end, unless they lose 4-5 games. I think FSU just wasnt expecting Louisville to be legit (like the rest of us lol).
The point though was you can afford a miss here and there when you bring in a lot of talent in your class.
Posted by: UMike | September 22, 2016 at 10:06 AM

Why do I do this to myself?
Time change hasn't helped, so up and off to Monterrey/Carmel soon with a blazing headache mixed with moderate nausea.

You're the starting QB: crying on the bench like a b*tch before the first half is even over doesn't inspire a lot of confidence. Kids weak, going to be a bust.
Posted by: Lur-ker | September 22, 2016 at 10:51 AM
I respectfully disagree.
Posted by: UMike | September 22, 2016 at 10:58 AM
Cool. Crying on the bench and refusing to get up makes you a leader. Got it.
Can't wait until our line rocks his ass in a couple of weeks. A couple of hard hits from Chad or Shaq, and get out the hankies.
Posted by: Lur-ker | September 22, 2016 at 11:19 AM
Who said he was a leader?
Posted by: UMike | September 22, 2016 at 11:28 AM
FSwho can have Travesty Rudolph. I will keep our wide receivers. That dude hasn't done jack shit. Every time I turn them on them on, he's always dropping passes. That's one dude I definitely don't like. And he tries to act corky. Fock him. Suck ass receiver....

IIRC, wasn't it SOUP that said Lane didn't look like He didn't go all out on every play? I seem to remember SOUP saying He saw Him play live on a blog awhile back? But anyways, if it was SOUP, He was right LOL.
