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

THIS IS OUR LIVE GAME DAY THREAD:

This is where we gather to follow things on Game Day. Obviously, emotions tend to be high so if anyone gets a little crazy, the use of the “Mute” button is encouraged on anyone who may be annoying to you to control your experience and to allow the moderators to also enjoy the game.

At the same time, please take a deep breath before over-reacting for the sake of making this a pleasant experience for everyone.

Lastly, we have never allowed promoting the use of any illegal streaming. This is illegal and will be enforced by copyright holders, which puts this site at risk. DO NOT POST ANY LINKS to those platforms.

This also means, there absolutely cannot be any mention these platforms, spaces, special characters, etc. - so do not get creative in trying to work around this request.

If you do you will have your account suspended.

I do not have the means to deal with legal issues and have already been contacted previously, so this absolutely needs to be adhered to. If you see any illegal links, please report them so a mod can remove them.

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

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.

WELL WHICH ONE IS IT? WHO WAS THE FIRST TO TAKE THE FIELD?!?!?!?!?

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

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.
