2018 Training Camp - Day 2 (7/27/18)

[captain stone]

McCourty last season didn't seem Pro-Bowl like. Could've been me, but I dunno

It wasn't you.

DMac is one of the most over-paid non-QBs in the entire league.

 

[Kontradiction]

He’s not faster and it’s not even close.

But he’s much bigger and is elusive.

How do you pronounce your username when you say it in your head? PatJEW (with emphasis on the latter part) or Patjew (pronounced like "achoo").

THANK GOD/ALLAH/JEHOVAH/ANY DIETY YOU MAY BELIEVE IN

@PatriotsNumero1Fan can hold off eating the Tide Pods for another day....

 

[RobertWeathers]

And he 40 lbs heavier

Patterson is a load.

Same could be asked to you.

Is it Contra diction

Or

Cont - a - dic- shun?

 

[PatsFan2]

It's unanimous. Patterson is turning heads in camp.

"IF" Patterson is standing out on Offense...this Defense could be potentially worse than last years. Let's not get carried away Patterson sucked in every Vanilla Offense he's played in. The Patriots don't run a vanilla Offense.

Are you the one who likes to say we could have kept Chandler Jones by cutting McCourty? I honestly can't remember who said that.

Patterson at the end of the season in Minny played really well. He caught mostly screen passes but it was quite impressive. I do know much about his presence in Oakland and I am not so sure he will play outside WR for us.However this guy might be a proven and valuable part of our offence.As I remember well Minny also paid a big ransom to grab him in the first round so he can't be a random player. His problem was his attitude and behaviour not ability of playing football. I believe if he is well motivated he will be a good player.

But he’s much bigger and is elusive.

As long as he doesn't turn into a headless chicken in the big game it's all good.

 

[Deus Irae]

The guy’s injury proned. What you want me to say?

I want you to say injury prone, not injury proned.

 

[NG Pats Fan]

It sounds as if the offense is having its way with the defense so far...

What do you except? D is Swiss Cheese with no elite pass rushers or young coverage linebackers and a scheme that’s designed to give up a chunk of yards

I see you're optimistic on the season.

 

[PatriotsNumero1Fan]

Everyone’s getting a woody over Patterson lol. The guy likely will be special teams.

 

[NG Pats Fan]

I see you're optimistic on the season.

We have a great offense and the best QB. That’s enough to warrant a 12-13 win season.


If our D can play just league average, we will win the super bowl

Everyone’s hoping christian Sam could be that.

That’s what we will find out. How good can this defense be. Everyone’s high on Shelton. Can he be that force on the d-line. Malcom Brown has been inconsistent . Curious about rivers coming back from ACL.

 

[NG Pats Fan]

I officially withdraw my concern that Edelman might not be the same player due to age and injury.

PEDs help. I don’t blame the man he did what he had to do to get back to 100 percent. I’ll get crucified for saying that but it’s true. We don’t have him for four games because of it.

I can’t wait to watch him in week 5

 

[captain stone]

Are you the one who likes to say we could have kept Chandler Jones by cutting McCourty? I honestly can't remember who said that.

Wasn't me, though I too seem to recall reading that quote.

For the record, I understood why Chandler Jones had to go, especially after he showed up uninvited at the Foxborough PD, though at the time I had ass-umed that the money saved would go towards re-signing Jamie Collins. Oops.

There was then/is now no need to release DMac, especially when Harmon is Next Man Up, but I am obviously disappointed that no legitimate competition for his role has been brought here in 5 years, not only to deepen the talent pool, but to apply pressure on him to re-structure his albatross of a contract.

Sam Darnold is not the best QB, and and your team's offense sucks. Your D will have to be an all-timer to get your team anywhere near the Super Bowl.

In my head it’s PAT-Jew, emphasis on the PAT.

You know me, I’ve been trying to hire my Jewishness for many years.
