By far and away the most attended session of training camp to date. It was good to see so many die hards weathering the withering weather. They were rewarded for it, too.
...Matt Prater (kicker) turned in the highlight of the day. He drilled a 68-yard field goal that would've been good from 73. Impressive, but let's see him do it in a game, with 11 angry men coming to block it.
...Brandon Marshall continues to turn in some stunning catches. The more you watch B-Marsh, the more you realize how ridiculously talented he is. If he manages to avoid a lengthy suspension, he'll make last year's stats look pedestrian (1325 rec yds, 7 TD).
...Brett Pierce looks like a player at tight end. He had another nice catch today, dispelling any notion that he can't be an option in the passing attack. His blocking skills, yet to be fully realized.
...Domonique Foxworth had another pick six today. He's got starting cornerback talent, but just happens to be on a team with two of the best in the biz, Champ Bailey and Dre Bly.
...If Tom Nalen doesn't get healthy soon, the offensive line is staring at some serious questions. No offense to Casey Wiegmann, but Nalen is the heart and soul of that unit.
...The first team offense did well today. They drove the field efficiently in 11-on-11 drills, with Jay Cutler spreading the ball around the skill positions.
...Finally, no practice Sunday. A day off for the coaches, players, fans....and yes, media!
