No training camp today.

Hopefully, no one has withdrawals! šŸ˜‚ J/K ~ The break is welcomed.

Actually, it works out for me. A lot less time at the computer today.

I need to take the great grandkids to pick up their school schedules this morning & then some shopping. (BTW ~ I hate shopping, but gladly do it for them.🄰 )

Whatever you do, have a great day! 😊

P.S. If you're really hankering for some football, remember the H.O.F. Game is tonight. Panthers vs. Cardinals @ 7:00 Central on NBC, Peacock, and NFL+.

LIVE WELL ~ LOVE MUCH ~ LAUGH OFTEN

Kyler must be thrilled seeing the full houses in Eagan. Thought I'd check in on the Cards. Thought maybe fans were not allowed at this practice, but given the title....

They could legit go 0-17. No joke. Manning all the way. Not sure they are even bringing a road map this season šŸ˜‚

You know, I just want to see a great season. I really am hoping Murray brings us that. I hope he can be more interactive on the sidelines and field however.

Forness takeaways after the first week.

Some interesting observations. Positive notes on young guys as well.

From the cumulative reads I've digested since the start of TC, I cannot really disagree with Forness's takeaways.

However, he has really only made observations about the skill players and DB (Chucky D, specifically), with big observation about Dallas Turner of course.

I know it is really too early, but I am curious about the OL jelling as well as more about our revamped rookie DL.

I guess you can't write about everything every day.

Please God, just one Lombardi before I die.

I would say with 5 weeks before a real football game happens, we'll probably get more news about the OL and everything else between now and then.

But this article that just appeared today has some insights into what the team is trying to do on the OL this year, specifically wrt the run game.
