Mike Hawk wants action and results. No problem with that.

This is not relevant to the point.

I remember years ago Saints players wearing custom mouthpieces that were supossed to somehow make them stronger and faster.... years before that it was the balance bracelets...

VR is the popular thing right now, so it's only logical that NFL players would gravitate towards that in a never ending effort to try to get an edge over the other players. Keenum swears by it, just like the Saints players swore by their silly mouth pieces, so who knows.

Would strapping on a VR headset really benefit more than just watching film and actual real practice reps? I don't know, maybe.... maybe not.

I bet Mike Hawk wears a special ring that helps him.

Hasn't practice time been severely limited due to NFLPA agreements?

Mike Hawk begging for practice, but sometimes VR is the only way to get turf time.

That's the point I was trying to make, I wouldn't waste any practice on this, but if the QBs wanted to come in early and work with this thing, then that should be encouraged.

We talkin’ Bout’ practice.

Agreed Mike Hawk. If you can get the real thing, you should do so. But there are limits imposed by agreements with the NFLPA on max "real" practice time. I'm not sure if those limits are imposed for VR.

I think we are spittin the same truth.

Mike Hawk sometimes comes across a bit dense.

On the other hand, Mike Hawk can surely at times drop pearls of wisdom.
