PRESEASON GAME DAY THREAD (8/22): Patriots vs. Saints


Status
Not open for further replies.
Agree, how can Dobson be a lock when he can't even stay on the field. Gibson and Harper have been two of our best players so far this preseason.
Ash, I believe that it was reported by Jeff Howe (could've been someone else) that Dobson has felt healthy enough to practice and play for a little while now, but the coaching staff has held him out anyway for his sake. Jeff (or whoever) speculated that this is the way the team would treat a "lock" player - if he was on the roster bubble, they would be putting him out there to see what they've got. No sense in holding back a guy you don't even know if you're keeping.
 
@pherein How do you like Josh Hill? I think he can be a great player.

Can anyone update me on what Dion Lewis has done? Seen a couple comments about him but haven't seen any plays.
I love Josh Hill he knocked spencer out vs cowboys and turned to catch a TD I think hes really good

He's been very impressive, not many bright spots this game but him, Harper, Gibson and Jimmy G have been good

Has looked really quick when catching the all and running. Had a one handed grab and has blocked well. Made a real case to be on the 53 today.
 
I think this is our better QB
 
Brandin Cooks is what happens when you invest first round picks on offensive skill positions.
 
I feel like this announcer doesn't even know our starting LB's names
 
Great strategy.....hold him out so he can pull another muscle etc week one.....sorry don't have any confidence that this guy will ever stay healthy and make an impact here

Incredibly insightful halftime interview with BB. You've got to admire his detailed analysis and candor. I think he has a post-coaching career in the media awaiting.
 
How can Dobson be a "lock" at this point....he's done nothing....and is always injured.....it would seem that he would be the odd man out right now....if not its bye to Gibson

According to Howe, Dobson could go but the Pats are holding him out.

BB isn't gonna hold out a guy on the bubble because of precautionary reasons.
 
Ryan is "Toast " Patterson reincarnated.
 
Ryan looking like a Rutgers CB on those deep balls.
 
Logan Ryan. Don't care how vanilla the D is....
