Bocephus just wrapped up his shoot for the MNF theme song, marking the 22nd year he's asked the world if they're ready for some football. No camp work for Chris Johnson means lots and lots of valuable carries and practice reps for the unproven Javon Ringer. So, at least CJ2K's absence has a little bit of an upside, because we're going to need guys like Ringer, Blount and the rest of the depth guys ready to rock if anything goes south with CJ2K. Otherwise, we're a ticking time bomb.
This week will be the last minicamp before training camp starts up at the end of next month, and Jim Wyatt says the focus us on the passing game.
So yeah, it stinks that CJ2K is going to hold-out for most, if not all, of training camp, but it could be worse: he could be missing camp because he broke his arm playing flag football like Panther's WR Steve Smith.
PFW looks at the world's least surprising divorce: the one between Big Albert and the Redskins. YOu don't have to be a psychic or a relationship counselor to tell that one was probably doomed from the start, and now the two sides are engaged in a War of the Roses-style deathspiral where the only thing that's sure is that everyone loses and everything burns.
Oh more good news on Albert: he's being sued for $2.4 million for a loan he took out AFTER he got $32 million from the Redksins. Somebody explain that one, please.
The Titans aren't the only AFC South team missing an offensive star for the moment: The Texans' Owen Daniels is skipping the beginning of mandatory mini camps.
So, the question is, just how close to death are the Jacksonville Jaguars? It's starting to sound mighty, mighty close.
