My opinion: this OL is reallly making the DL look bad and the frustration is boiling over. These guys are working hard to make the roster and earn starting jobs and this Oline makes them look like JAGS.

They are JAGs

Its great to see real emotion boil over. Good sign of a club that wants to win....brawl together...win together.

You have to brawl in order to become bros.

 

[casmith07]

No offense intended. Just wasn't sure if you were joking.

I think you underestimate how frustrating our ol can be. And a mini-fight happens along the line of scrimmage every snap so it doesn't take much to escalate.

No I know man, no harm done. I'm not underestimating it at all. It just seems orchestrated. Not by the team but maybe the players.

You mean brawl to be "Bras?"

 

[Zimmy Lives]

Yeah, I do. It happens every year and it never turns into a real fight. Just seems silly.

Yup. They might as well provide pillows on the sidelines during practice. Jourdan Lewis can coach them up on the deadly art of pillow fighting.

Yep, It's really a joke more than anything else when players hit one another with helmets and pads on to protect them. Aside from that, it happens to likely every team in the league in every TC. Providing pillows for the combatants would at least make it more entertaining.

I'm sure there's more danger of a guy hurting his hand by hitting another player wearing a face mask than any danger to the other guy's face. The majority of "fights" consist mostly of pushing and shoving . . . I've seen 5th graders have better fights than that.

It's part of training camp, and you love the intensity, but I can't help but clinch up every time I see one of these.

Yeah. Its more entertaining when clubs get together for joint practices!! Thats hilarious...degenerates into grade school pushing and shoving and these "fight"...great fun.

 

[BigStar]

Whoever gets the facemask first wins the fight (not much of a fight like people are saying). Similar to when girls have each others hair and won't let go tbh

This team is hungry and I expect to see these fights amongst offense and defense until they start facing off vs other teams.

Sources say the NFL is investigating if Zeke had a role in causing that scuffle.

Well, this is a really good OL, clearly. They do that to a lot of DLs around the league but honestly, who on this DL is really a clear step above JAG, at this point? Maybe it is what it is and that aint a real good thing.

I think that is what will help this young DL develop when they face all vs the best OL in the NFL. I saw that Taco had a very good day on Wed practice and Collins has also looked good out there.

 

[ABQCOWBOY]

LOL...... John Travolta getting beat up by a girl. I tell ya, I love Fridays!

 

[ABQCOWBOY]

This was basically nothing. It's early in camp. In another week, these guys are gonna be to tired to do this stuff. At least they better be.

 

[ABQCOWBOY]

I go back a hundred years, to when I played and slightly less, to when I coached and I remember how it was in TC or Two a Days when one side of the ball was owning the other. I know for a fact that an OC or a DC might get in the ear of a position coach and let them know that a certain unit needs to be stired up. I know that position coached then get in your arse and say and do certain things to motivate. The result of this is often what we see here.

I know people like to think Football changes but it really doesn't. Things come and go but very little is actually new.

I was almost R-rated, for sure. Within site guidelines, tho. I have a way with words, Robbie.

No worries. I actually remember using that line just prior to a fight many many years ago. Sort of jarring to think about. Lol.
