    Joseph Osai, for the Bengals, broke his wrist. Will be our a while. Had a good game prior to that.

    I know it’s preseason but Sam looked good today. Also hit former Horn Tariq Black for a 50 yarder.

    If he has Colt's NFL career I'll be very happy for him.

    "Former Horn Tariq Black" is also amusing

    Not that many major stories coming out of practice as of late but apparently Card took the majority of 1st team snaps today for the first time. Neither guy had a very good scrimmage over the weekend so wonder if Sark is trying to light a fire somewhat.

    Keep hearing that WR play has been very underwhelming which is a major concern.

    Colt has had a dream career. There is no better job in this country than backup NFL QB.

    Yep, they've taken enough physical abuse, hopefully they'll be able to bend over to tie their shoes and count to ten when they're 50

    Speaking of abuse, the hit he took from James Harrison was one of the worst I remember seeing.

    Wow! I like it, didn't think they'd do it.

    eta: and that's not a knock on Thompson at all. At some point this season we'll need him.

    What stopped Thompson from winning the gig?

    Doesn't Sark have a press conference on Mondays?

    Reports are that Card gets through his progressions and gets the ball out quicker which is probably a big key in Sark's offense. Also read Card was not afraid to air things out while Thompson checked down more often. It does sound like Sark gave Thompson all the opportunity to run away with the job but couldn't do it.
