Preseason Game Thread (NE vs. NC): The Countdown to Carolina begins.... (8/28)

Lol a 310 pound TE, should be interesting

That's nothing, Baylor have got a 410b TE



FWIW, I think Williams will be blocking a lot more than running routes.

@jeffphowe: Doesn't sound like Julian Edelman will make his preseason debut tonight. Still resting the ankle.

I hope we see a WR trio of Wayne, Dobson, and Harper.

Zolak said both Edelman and Gronk should see a few snaps tonight. Until his source (Brady) lets me down at some point with this stuff, I'm gonna go toward him.

I don't know about you guys, but I would be happy if Gronk and Edelman didn't play at all this preseason.

Same with Hightower and Mayo. Let's keep everyone as fresh as possible.

That ball looks pretty tiny in his hand.

Same here. NE has been doing a ton of heavy lines with limited success. The concerns about the OL are actually attributable to the edges fairly often, so it wasn't that surprising to see them bring another body in.

Scott Chandler made the trip, as did Jerod Mayo. Of course, Mayo did last week as well and didn't play

Chandler said this week that he'd like to play. We'll see if he does.

Getting my game day food on tonight .... need to sharpen my food game for regular season.
Need to be sharp in all 3 phases ... pre game food - drinks - halftime food.

I was so going to type this. And I would have gotten away with it if it weren't for you meddling kids!

They both win. I am looking forward to watching Wayne!

I would have asked Steve Burton for the definitive answer, but he's waiting outside the locker room, but he's waiting outside the locker room, hoping to ask Bill Belichick a three-word question.

keep gronk out of this..
he should never participate in preseason games ever..
