The Official Patriots vs Gaints Pre-Season Game Thread

[TyronePoole]

A 255 Pound Defensive End doesn't fill me with confidence given that would be seriously undersized. He would be better suited to OLB.

was supposedly 270+ before he had his jaw wired

I should have picked up some vodka.

i did and it's making Tebow time much easier to handle... :bricks:

 

[robbomango]

Tebow, Tebow, Tebow, Tebow, Tebow

C'mon everyone he's a patriot tonight and this is the friggin Gnuts!!!

 

[Awesomo 3000]

actually a revolving door would be pretty effective in general

And if you leave the door ungreased, it might slow the rush down a 1/2 step more.

Tebow's had more than his share of suck, this preseason, but the guys in front of him don't even look like they want to be in the nfl after this game.

I'm as big a Buchanan fan as anyone, but Chandler Jones comparisons are premature. Jones is a lot more athletic than his measurables indicate.

I was not comparing him to Jones saying he was going to be even close to as good, I was just pointing out that we got a very talented player with his selection, I do agree Jones is a more dominating player, but if you can bookend those 2 for the next 5 years that will give you something to hang your hat on.

Buchanan's 255 weight is about as false as Tebow pretending to be a QB. Buchanan's easily in the 260 range.

 

[IcyPatriot]

That was some serious neck snapage.

IN fairness to Tebow...they're square pegging him...he is NOT a pocket QB...he's a cat/R-O QB...they sure aren't trying to showcase his talents...I think they are sandbagging...just a feeling though

 

[TyronePoole]

call me a bad fan if you must but I'm pulling for the lulz here

280 sounds better.

 

[Ozymandias]

Tebow has as many sacks as he does completions.

I was thinking the same thing but then again this is what Tebow needs practice at,..dropping back, making his reads and passing.

I was talking to him last week and he 's an easy 310...

Right on, I agree with that.

Re: Buchanan's weight, 255 is what he was at the combine. I'm sure he's put on a good amount of weight since then. Probably around 270 now, from the looks of it.

 

[IcyPatriot]

Tebow might want to vary the snap count a bit ... duh!

 

[Joker]

he's NOT making reads...he's locking on one receiver...watch his eyes every replay

 

[Townie Towlie]

He just can't look off a receiver... major problem

He doesn't look 255. He was 255 at the combine, after a jaw surgery kept him from eating. Looks like he's put on at least 10 pounds. Looks bigger than Ninkovich to me.

 

[Delicate Genius]

Who's snapping the ball to Tebow?

 

[sb1]

Andre Brown fractured leg... ouch . Tough break....
