Game Day Thread Official Preseason Game 1: NE vs HOU

[Joker]

You guys have me laughing so hard tonight.

like YOU have had US all ROTFLOAO since last season with your Zippy-Zappe hysterics

 

[Toofy]

So the only way Boutte comes in is if Bourne is traded or Thornton goes to IR . This guy is getting in as QB2 / QB3. No way will bill allow him to go through waivers. He just earned a spot in 53 today.

 

[Ross12]

I reject your K/P slander.

Lol I honestly just forgot about them when making the list, I should've included them too

Is that the male cheerleader? I thought that started a couple years ago.

 

[Pape]

they have to keep malik cunningham as a "wr" so he can wear #39

 

[BadMoFo]

Well we have to keep hearing about Bailey Zappe from radio host and fans around here for a whole year now.


One thing for sure though. I don't know why BB never drafted a athletic QB...past on Lamar, Jalen and fields...

Fields? He was picked ahead of our pick. ‍

Joker, you need to sober up and eat a Big Mac. Or at least give him a hand job.

So....why did Bill invest a 4th on Sow again? I can't remember.

 

[Ross12]

Not often you get versatility in the form of two of the most important skill positions on the team. Kid definitely had a solid first showing, which was absolutely nice to see.

I think Bill might hope that Cunningham can achieve a "good enough" capability at WR where he can be their 5th (maybe 6th) guy, play a little special teams, and not be a liability if he's called upon as a receiver in a game, while also being the 3rd QB and working on his craft in that regard too. To your point, he probably isn't worth a spot on the 53 just as the 5th receiver but he is if he's also the 3rd QB and plays ST too, and can be used in some special packages on offense from time to time.

That's your cousin FROM BAWSTIN

 

[SammyBlueCat]

I don’t trust Bill evaluating any coach right now.

Fair enough. Your point was about spending.

He's no Dante that's for sure.

Not likely. On the other hand, does he deserve more than one (pre-season) game?

 

[Dingleberry]

Whatta we have heah, a cheerleadah with a peckah?

 

[IcyPatriot]

Triumph ... jk ... but.

 

[sb1]

Triumph ... jk ... but.

Triumph is anti-Mac more than pro-Zappe. I think.

 

[Schmo]

Cue the cunny jokes ....

From what I hear in training camp, Cunny and ***ot will never play on the same team.

 

[IcyPatriot]

Triumph is anti-Mac more than pro-Zappe. I think.

Either way ... he has some explaining to do.

 

[jdlboot14]

Zappe's % is so misleading, the kid couldn't do anything. The 1 pass to TT was a great catch, but the throw was off.
Sure, Malik was exciting - after the most pathetic unveiling of the shiny new BOB offense you could ever see.
We know it's preseason, but after the last 3 years we've had, might have been important to give the team - and fan base - something to hope for.
But ya, let Malik be QB2, can't be worse than Bailey & Trace.

 

[Ghost_Rush02]

Tough part is that, save for Mahomes, that style of play for a QB hasn't been sustainable to this point. Maybe that changes in the coming years, but the injury risk at the position has been a problem for those guys, with Mahomes dodging a bullet himself last year.

I mean that's what the position is evolving into. QBs like Mac aka pocket passers are a dying breed.
