Lions-Browns

Cleveland’s second-year star running back Trent Richardson, slowed by injuries so far as a pro, was thrilled to find out he’ll play in Thursday night’s preseason game against the Detroit Lions.

Source: Associated Press 

First year head coach Rob Chudzinski says Cleveland Browns have an honest-to-goodness quarterback competition between Brandon Weeden and Jason Campbell. Weeden has taken every first-team rep in training camp, leaving Campbell to work exclusively with the second team. Weeden was excellent in the Browns’ preseason opener (10-of-13 passing for 112 yards and one TD), and figures to start again Thursday against the Detroit Lions.

Sports betting champ says According to Detroit RB Reggie Bush, the offense is beginning to hit its stride. Bush and the starters on offense only played for the first two drives. He expects a little more work in Cleveland after getting his feet wet at home last week.

Falcons-Ravens

Ravens tight end Dennis Pitta is out. He has 61 catches last year.

San Diego-Bears

San Diego Chargers wide receiver Malcom Floyd is out after suffering a knee sprain during Monday’s practice. Floyd led the Chargers with a career-best 56 receptions for 814 yards and five touchdowns last season. Over his eight-year career, all with the Chargers, Floyd has 233 catches for 3,984 yards and 25 TDs. Danario Alexander, San Diego’s other starting receiver, was lost for the year after tearing his ACL last Tuesday.

The Chicago Bears signed running back Curtis Brinkley to a one-year contract on Monday in an attempt to bolster some depth to a position currently dealing with injuries. The move comes three days after Armando Allen, projected to be the team’s No. 3 running back behind Matt Forte and Michael Bush, hurt his right hamstring in Friday’s preseason opener at Carolina.

Panthers-Eagles

The Eagles have had starter Jeremy Maclin and possible backup Arrelious Benn both go down with season-ending ACL injuries during training camp.

Friday, August 16, 2013

Vikings-Bills

Possible No. 1 QB Kevin Kolb came out scrambling and firing one completion after another Tuesday. It was an impressive enough outing for coach Doug Marrone to suggest the seventh-year quarterback is on track to play in Buffalo’s preseason game against Minnesota on Friday.  Kolb had missed eight days of training camp and the Bills’ preseason-opening 44-20 win at Indianapolis on Sunday after slipping on a wet rubber mat in practice Aug. 3. The update wasn’t as positive for receiver T.J. Graham, who was held out of practice a day after straining his groin. Marrone doesn’t expect Graham to return until after the game Friday.

Cowboys-Cardinals

The “Honey Badger” is about to get his first NFL start.Arizona coach Bruce Arians said Tuesday that rookie Tyrann Mathieu will start at free safety in place of injured Rashad Johnson. Mathieu has been a sensation in training camp as he looks to make a comeback after being booted from the LSU team for marijuana use and frequenting many a CBD Oil in the region.

49ers-Chiefs

Pro Bowl running back Jamaal Charles had his ailing right foot examined by two orthopedic surgeons and they confirmed the Kansas City Chiefs’ diagnosis of a mild strain. It appears unlikely that he will play in Friday night’s preseason game against San Francisco at Arrowhead Stadium. The Chiefs leaned heavily on Charles in their preseason opener last week. He touched the ball on eight of the 14 plays that the No. 1 offense ran on its opening touchdown drive.

Dolphins-Texans

Houston Texans guard Wade Smith is out. Smith has started all 48 games over the past three seasons with the Texans and was a Pro Bowl selection for the first time last year.

Source: Associated Press

It’s early, but the Dolphins might not get the impact they hoped for from their rookie class.

Source: ESPN

Jaguars-Jets

Jets coach Rex Ryan declined Tuesday to name his starter for Saturday night against the Jacksonville Jaguars, leaving open the possibility he may let the Mark Sanchez-Geno Smith battle continue for a week longer than many expected. Smith was limited to only 14 snaps against the Detroit Lions, completing six of seven passes for 47 yards.

Jag’s Blaine Gabbert’s inability to clear 2 yards per attempt in the Jacksonville Jaguars’ 27-3 preseason loss to the Miami Dolphins last week. Take Monday’s practice report from the Jaguars’ official website for example: “The offense struggled at times in practice, with Gabbert completing about half his passes in 11-on-11 drills and (Chad) Henne completing a little more than half while fumbling twice.” After reading these skipping-record reports for nearly three weeks, the one above can be copied and pasted as a recap of the offense’s performance for the entire training camp.

Colts-Giants

New York Giants safety Antrel Rolle is out, likely for the preseason. A nine-year veteran Rolle is the leader of the secondary. He had a career-high 108 tackles last season and was a constant voice trying to make sure his teammates were on the same page.

Source: Associated Press

Colts played poorly in their 44-20 preseason loss to Buffalo. Coach Chuck Pagano said the starters will play more and they will play better as a team against the New York Giants on Sunday.

Thursday, August 8

Ravens-Buccaneers

Baltimore Ravens tight end Ed Dickson will be out for approximately two weeks due to a slight hamstring tear. Dickson, who suffered the injury during Sunday’s practice, is the team’s No. 1 tight end after Dennis Pitta was lost for the season with a hip injury sustained during training camp. The 25-year-old Dickson caught 21 passes for 225 yards for Baltimore a year ago.

Bengals-Falcons

Wide receiver A.J. Green will not make the trip for the Cincinnati Bengals’ preseason opener in Atlanta. He caught 97 passes last year with 11 TDs.

Friday, August 9

Cardinals-Packers

The Green Bay Packers may be forced to shuffle their renovated offensive line after starting left tackle Bryan Bulaga reportedly suffered a season-ending knee injury.

Source: Associated Press

Green Bay added depth at RB. Enter second-round draft pick Eddie Lacy of Alabama and fourth-round pick Johnathan Franklin of UCLA. They have shared reps with two returners from last season, Alex Green and James Starks. Two of their top three cornerbacks (Tramon Williams and Casey Hayward) remain sidelined.

The Arizona Cardinals again were without their top two running backs as training camp resumed Monday following a day off for all the players.Rashard Mendenhall missed his third straight practice with patella tendinitis and Ryan Williams remained sidelined with a sore knee. Three other starters – guard Daryn Colledge (nerve irritation), inside linebacker Karlos Dansby (hamstring) and nose tackle Dan Williams (sprained ankle, knee) also missed another practice.  Those who sat out Monday’s practice could miss Friday’s opener as well.

“A bunch of those guys will be iffy for the ball game but they are getting better,” Arians said. “We’ll err on the side of caution.”

Asked how much the starters would play against the Packers, Arians said, “We’re shooting for 15 plays.” “We’ll see how it goes, how far one side of the ball or the other gets stuck going into the second quarter,” he said. “We’ll just see how it plays out, how we’re playing. There are so many young guys that need to be evaluated.”

Chiefs-Saints

Starter Marques Colston has yet to practice this camp. Joe Morgan, who appeared to have the lead for the No. 3 receiver spot, went down with an unspecified injury in a scrimmage Saturday.

Bills-Colts

The Indianapolis Colts are in the midst of a retooling project on the defensive side of the football. Thanks to a flurry of offseason free-agent signings, as well as one or two additions through the draft, the Colts could have at least six new starters when the regular season opens.

Buccaneers-Jets

The competition between the two for the starting quarterback job remains tight, and coach Rex Ryan is not sure who will start the preseason opener at Detroit on Friday night. But Ryan added that both Mark Sanchez and Geno Smith will work with the first-team offense during the game.

Joe Duffy Picks are now 48-30 underdog moneyline winners outnumbering the moneyline chalk losers 26-6. It was led by ESPN NL Game of the Year on underdog Atlanta and yet another Hall-of-Fame game winner on Dallas as part of a 4-0 sweep.  So sign up for the monthly pick pass now!

Here is the intel you get every day:

DALLAS +2.5 Miami

If this line goes to 3.5, I will upgrade to a Wise Guy. The oddsmakers knew Dallas would likely play Tony Romo and the starters minimally anyway, so the sharp money on Miami was withknowledge that they may be able to sneak in a solid middle.

Dallas has a large contingent of young players and rookies battling for playing time. So they will have some players with a regular season intensity. Having proven veterans play a couple series in the Hall-of-Game game is something I would fade, not bet on.

Miami has looked sloppy so far, no surprise with key players being offseason additions. Today is not the day they need to prove anything and they know it. We will ride the hungry young Pokes and fade the false line move.
