The first Monday in April marks the opening of the window for allowing teams with new coaches to launch their offseason workout programs. Four teams have chosen to do that: The Browns Bradley Chubb Broncos Jersey , Bucs, and Dolphins start today. The Broncos begin on Tuesday.It’s not “practice,” not even close to it. Here’s the full text from the labor deal regarding what is, and isn’t, allowed during the early days of the offseason program: “Phase One shall consist of the first two weeks of the Club’s offseason workout program. Subject to the additional rules set forth in Section 5 of this Article, Phase One activities shall be limited to strength and conditioning and physical rehabilitation only. During Phase One, only full-time or part-time strength and conditioning coaches, who have no other coaching responsibilities with the Club, shall be allowed on the field; no other coaches shall be allowed on the field or to otherwise participate in or observe activities. No footballs shall be permitted to be used (only ‘dead ball’ activities) Von Miller Jersey White , except that quarterbacks may elect to throw to receivers provided they are not covered by any other player. Players cannot wear helmets during Phase One.”In some respects, Phase One may be more frustrating to coaches than the weeks before Phase One, given that players are in the building but the coaches can’t coach them regarding matters of football.Regardless of when teams begin their offseason program, all teams are limited to nine weeks. Teams with new coaches are permitted to have an extra three-day voluntary minicamp.With the exception of the one mandatory minicamp that each team may conduct, all workouts are voluntary. Few players choose not to attend, however, and those who have significant workout bonuses attached to their contracts become less likely to stay away.If players are going to work out anyway, it’s better to work out at the team facility, since any serious injury sustained on team property qualifies the player for payment of his salary. If a player suffers a serious injury away from the workplace Royce Freeman Jersey , the team can choose to pay him nothing.To summarize, Phase One consists simply lifting and cardio and throwing passes to receivers who are running routes against air. Which means that they players are basically doing on the team’s property things that many of them likely have been doing anyway, given that professional football has become for most players a year-round profession.Chris Harris: ‘We’re not tricking anybody right now’ in the secondary When Joe Flacco needed a first down on Sunday, he and the Baltimore Ravens usually got one. That was the story of the injury-riddled Denver Broncos secondary in Week 3. And for the second week in a row, opposing offenses seem to have a blueprint to beating the No Fly Zone - getting the ball out fast.“We gotta move and disguise better,” Harris said. “We’re not tricking anybody right now. ”It is encouraging that Harris said it, because we’re all seeing it too. Defensive Coordinator Joe Woods needs to find a way to disguise what the Broncos are doing on defense or good quarterbacks are just going to pick them apart. Hell, even bad quarterbacks like Derek Carr will chew up the completion percentage.Not that it matter, the Broncos were so sloppy in this game that even had the disguised their secondary coverages well they would have shot themselves in the foot with the penalties - some warranted John Elway Jersey , some borderline fixing by the refs. “We can’t beat ourselves,” Harris added. “That’s what it takes. We have to be disciplined on the road. We made plays, but it’s just unfortunate. Unfortunate that we had penalties that killed us.”Harris also noted that he had some things he would love to say about the blocking in the back penalty that negated his blocked field goal return for a touchdown, but feared being fined, so he held his tongue. All around the game was brutal at times, but Harris was right, they made plays. Their plays were just negated by penalty. Now they have to prepare for the red hot Kansas City Chiefs on Monday Night Football in Week 4.
