Twenty quick-hitters from preseason Week 3.

quote:




6. As with Bortles, some of the shine on rookie Titan Zach Mettenberger comes from his playing in the Land of Mop-up. Judging by Atlanta-Tennessee highlights, Mettenberger seems as confident on the field right now as any rookie quarterback. His 22-yard line drive on a post route to Justin Hunter was a big-league throw. Looks like the Titans got a big bargain, landing Mettenberger with the 178th pick.




Also, a Patrick Peterson mentioned in his Factoid of the Week section:

quote:

Patrick Peterson signed a five-year, $70-million contract extension on July 29, with a signing bonus of $15,361,000. The bonus came in a lump-sum check, not direct-deposited.

He has not cashed the bonus check yet.

He told me, “I just haven’t gotten around to it.”

That is crazy. Don't most all banks offer a service where you can just take a picture with your phone and deposit it that way?

Looks like Mett is still 3rd on the chart, but pretty good write up here: LINK

Anyone with half a brain knew mett was a big league arm and Manziel was not. I said it then... Mett was the best QB available in last years draft. Funny how underrated our guys have been as of late.
