Well last night was a great start to the 2024 NFL season. Two top teams matched up equally in a good shoot out. 

I didn't know they were going to enforce formation penalties like they did. At a certain time, Baltimore got a warning, then two consecutive penalties illegal formation. I think Harbaugh asked the ref, just tell him he needs to move up. If that is the case, then train your players better. Sometimes WR will check with the ref since they are far away from the center. It is the tackles job to be lined up correctly. If you knew these were going to be called more strictly, then it is poor head coaching that your players were not ready. Stop crying. 

I do think Xavier Worthy is going to be a problem. He just looks like he has another gear that most other players do not have.

Yep.

And teams are told about areas of focus in the pre-season. Many teams will bring refs in to officiate scrimmages and inter-squad things.

He’s always been a whiner.

Any thoughts? 

Not sure I agree with this. I think Fields is doing good. The team is 4-2. I am not sure Russel is any better. Last year by QBR, they were basically the same player. Two years ago, Russel was just BAD. If you want to take prep time away from the guy who got you to 4-2, just to give a guy who has been injured a shot, I think it is a waste of time. 

Hey, I do not watch them every weekend, but maybe some Pittsburgh fans can chime in.

It could be to exhibit for trade bait.   Some teams may be looking for another QB (Miami) and if Wilson plays well, the compensation could be large.

No. The Steelers aren't paying either of them very much. They're not gonna get rid of a SB winning QB in case Justin is injured or something.

The messaging from the Steelers before the season was that Wilson was going to be the starter. It shouldn't be that much of a surprise that they'd want to give him a shot once he was ready.

Being from Ohio, I root for our old Buckeyes including Fields, despite his current team.  He's always been perceived as not quite a good enough passer to make an NFL team a playoff contender. That's why the Bears let him go. I'm not sure how much better Wilson is at this point, but he's got that pedigree as a passer that Fields never has had.

They are different style quarterbacks, so if they really do start Wilson, it will be interesting to see how cohesive the offense looks. The NYJ defense isn't exactly a soft one to start with.

The Cowboys looked elegant against Detroit the other night. Solid performance. So glad we still have Jerry Jones or we’d really be in bad shape.😒

    • Good advice. In general, you want to take whatever weight you are lifting to a couple of reps before failure, for muscle growth. There are other tactics for PT related stuff. I would trust your PT person.  For muscle growth, you can go like 30 reps to failure. It is tougher to gauge. Also, it takes 2x as long to do the same number of working sets per week if you are doing 15 instead. It is way less efficient, but your case is special because of the injury/aggravation to the hip. 
    • Several years ago I got paired with a twosome of golfers, one of which had a maybe 5-year-old son with him. The kid had a putter and a 7i with him, and on some holes he would drop a ball near the green, chip on, and putt. If the kid started to get distracted, the dad would ask, "Do you need to rest?" The kid would nod yes, and then take his dad's seat riding in the cart for a couple of holes. It was a slow day, and the kid was polite and friendly. We got through 18 just fine. (If it had been a crowded course day, I'm sure it would have been less pleasant.)
    • Caution for the seniors on weight training: Listen to your body. (I'm 75) I got a recent session with an orthopedist after a training-related injury. I put too much weight on a new resistance machine at the gym and ended up with bursitis in my left hip. Of course, it's the hip I dislocated back in 2023. I have my first physical therapy session tomorrow. I remarked that some days I can do 45 lbs. chest press - two sets - without much effort. But other days it drops down to 30 (😩) with just one set. (Complicating factor: I had digestive problems in this fall and lost about 20 lbs., with slip in muscle tone.) Orthopedist said that I want to feel some resistence, but that I should go with lots of reps with manageable weights rather than trying to set some sort of lift-pound record. I'm sure I'll get some refinements on lifting during tomorrow's PT.
