PBP - Live Blog — August 7 Training Camp

Sounds like the QB's will know the order, but we wont know until Saturday?

A few quick hits to get us going:

  • No Chad Pennington sighting. Or anyone else. Still at 78 players.
  • Parcells and Ireland are standing on the sidelines, not working the phones.
  • Vonnie Holliday isn’t practicing today. Tony Sparano said Holliday tweaked his right hamstring yesterday, and we saw Holliday come off the field and get an ice pack taped to his leg. Holliday is riding the bike and doing some agility drills.
  • Jay Feely (groin) and Michael Lehan (ankle) also aren’t practicing. Everyone else is present and practicing.
  • Shorts and shells today in the bubble.
  • Donald Thomas and John Beck open up with the first team.
  • The drops continue: Ernest Wilford drops a ball in individual drills, on a lob from a coach with no one defending.
That’s it for now. Be back soon.

Awesome.
 
At this point it's a confidence thing. He's getting dumped on so much that he's starting to question himself and so it's getting worse.
 
BTW Beck starting with the first string to me suggests that he'll likely be playing Saturday night. I think Sparano will play two of the three...and those two will be Beck and Henne.

Sparano's motif seems to be one where he wants to know things, wants to find out things he doesn't know. At this point, he seems likely to settle on that from six seasons worth of film they know what they have in McCown. They don't know as much about Beck and even less about Henne. They want to know those things.

My prediction is Beck starts the first half, Henne the second half.

Not too much going on in individual drills. A few quick updates:

  • Parcells and Ireland have left practice.
  • But Dan Marino makes his second appearance in a week. He also showed up Saturday. He hangs out with Dale Murphy for a little bit, two MVPs chillin in the practice bubble.
  • Matt Roth, Joey Porter and Charlie Anderson are rotating between the two OLB positions with the first team. With Vonnie out, Roth may get extra work at linebacker.
  • Deep end zone punt drills. Brandon Fields keeps hitting the roof of the bubble.
  • Michael Lehan is working with a trainer and doing sprints, and he doesn’t look anywhere close to being ready to return. He’s definitely limping as he runs, and seems to wince when he plants his right foot and puts a lot of his weight on it.
  • Nice footwork by Camarillo on a sideline pattern. Excellent use of the tippy-toes.
That’s all I got. Back in a few.

I wonder where they went!?
