    McCarthy on practicing this week: With CBA it's not possible to practice this week to help Hundley out. Can start next Tuesday.

    THAT DOESN'T SOUND RIGHT, DON'T RECALL BYE WEEK RULES IN CBA, THOUGH IN SEASON IS LIMITED FOR PADS

    "Stating the obvious" that there's more on the bye week to-do list for the coaches, McCarthy says.

    Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 1m1 minute ago
    McCarthy; Yesterday was a starting point. Showed how important to do the little things. At half didn't think we played that well.

    "He will do better," MM says of Hundley. having only 50 plays was a factor.

    Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 32s32 seconds ago
    McCarthy on Hundley: Have to look at opportunities. He will do better. His issues were more in time clock, timing. We'll be better next time

    Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 54s55 seconds ago
    McCarthy: Hundley wasn't given a lot of opportunities. Maybe if defense gets off field a few more times he has more opportunities.

    McCarthy on Brett Hundley: I feel the same way today as I did going into the week. I know this young man & I believe in him.

    Michael Cohen @Michael_Cohen13 1m1 minute ago
    McCarthy said nobody should be surprised that he took the blame for yesterday's loss. He says that's what coaches do for their players.

    Michael Cohen @Michael_Cohen13 29s30 seconds ago
    McCarthy said he told the team before the Minnesota game that they weren't practicing the right way. Things improved last week, still lost.

    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    Article 24 ?

    Regards time, place and amounts of padded practices, AKA live fire.

    Don't know for sure, but seems to fit.

    That's it, mandated four days off, Thursday through Sunday.

    Article 24
    Section 2.
    Bye Weeks: During any regular season bye week period occurring during the term of this Agreement, players will be given a minimum of four consecutive days off. Such four-day period must include a Saturday and a Sunday unless the Club is scheduled to play a game on the Thursday following the bye week, in which case players may be required to report to the Club on the Sunday preceding the Thursday game. In such an event, the four-day period shall be Wednesday through Saturday. Any injured player may be required to undergo medical or rehabilitation treatment during such four-day period provided that such treatment is deemed reasonably necessary by the Club’s medical staff.

    On the broadcast of the late game last night, one of the announcers said that most teams don't practice (in pads?) on Fridays, but New England does. I think he said that works out to many, many hours of practice more for New England over the whole season. It's why they are so well prepared.

    You know I was thinking that maybe the owners and players shot themselves in the foot by negotiating all these practice rules in the CBA. It's probably affecting the quality of product that's put on the field Sundays and might also have something to do with all the injuries. Ultimately, both wind up diminishing interest in the games and NFL attendance/profits suffer.
    One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

    So this is the Maxie-pads argument?

    Many teams have substituted Saturday for Friday. Total number of padded practices are the same for all teams. So its not a net gain. Supposed to allow for peak performance on Sunday.

    So the announcer was wrong. It was probably Collingsworth.

    Anyway, my point's still valid, isn't it? These millionaire players are featherbedding!
