I was thinking this morning that the most perverse, PK-style thing PK could do on a day like today is to submit an MMQB column with barely a mention of That Guy. And whaddya know -- that's exactly what he's done.
I hear you, readers. I heard you on the sidelines at Eagle camp Tuesday: "Hey Peter! There're other guys in the league than Favre!'' I heard you on the plane from Baltimore to LAX the other night: "I am so sick of that Favre story.'' My exhaustive research indicates that I have spent 62.3 percent of my first three post-vacation weeks on Brett Favre and 37.7 percent of my time on the 2,560 players who actually are in training camps, and maybe that is a little out of whack.
So here you go: a real training-camp whiparound, with a view that struck me from the nine teams I've seen so far.
No, this is not a trick. You're going to read about a lot of players that you won't be reading about elsewhere this week, and not seeing on the NFL Network as it morphs into the BFL Network. Admirable job by PK, realizing that there are other players in the league. Well, at least until the last page. In this case, he's a few steps ahead of many of his colleagues.
