* Nothing quite like the ridiculously panicked preseason game column. Woody Paige does the honors, calling Denver "awful, dreadful" and saying the Cowboys rode Denver like donkeys.

* Great stuff from Jason LaCanfora. The confidence in Rocky McIntosh is striking.

"Rocky could not be doing much more than he is, and continues to make strides in coverage as well. He is progressing so well that had Marcus’s injury been long-term, there is a good chance he would have switched to the strong side because he has the closest ability and skillset to Marcus. Very shrewd by the Skins not to deal him for Lance Briggs, ‘cause he’s already better than Briggs against the run and will probably be better against the pass, too, by the middle of the season."

I need to get my top-ten team blogs rankings going again before the season. With Mike Sando at ESPN, Redskins Insider is going to top the list.

Going to work on the draft guide for a while and hopefully watch a little "tape", but will be back with a post or two later.
