Patriots Training Camp Day 16 (8/24) NYG

Guessing this one will be pretty tame with the joint practices coming up tomorrow. Likely just a walkthrough or at most a light day in shorts and shells. I look forward to overreacting to reports on how Mac looked regardless!

We need a minute by minute breakdown not only of Mac's empty-field passes but I also need to know, how many water breaks did he have ? Does it look like he had enough fiber yesterday ? Maybe the media can twist BB's response about the platoon question some more.

You seem so sad. Hope you won’t root against the patriots when Mac is named the starter.

Why would I be sad when I basically called Mac to the Pats 10 months ago. I'm also unlike you where I'd be rooting for the Pats to win rather than how you proclaimed you know more than Belichick does. Must be ironic for you if Cam lost his job because he shares your views on covid.

To be fair any of us could of posted this.
If Mac beats him out he can point to this.
If Cam gets replaced in season by Mac he can point to this.
Genius

Is this the same rumor mill that claimed some players were not sure about Cam from a couple weeks back. Didn't realize Giardi was stooping to be a TMZ reporter now.

See, this is the kind of reporting that pisses me off. It's left intentionally ambiguous for the sake of riling people into clicks and debate. What does a "level of frustration internally with the Cam situation" mean? Are they frustrated WITH Cam for not following protocol? Are they frustrated with Cam for not being vaccinated? Are they frustrated with their own internal operation because no one understood the rule properly or didn't follow Cam's plan closely enough? Are they frustrated with the LEAGUE for not being clear enough in their protocol communications?

This tweet does nothing but fuel whichever bias you had going into reading it.

(I'm not faulting you @ashley1992, you're just the messenger)

That important member of the organization? Mac Jones.

Giardi is a hack.

I heard sources tell me andyjohnson changed his username because he's one of the superspreader antivaxx people.

I think we all know Mac is our qb of the future. It's a matter of "when" it happens as opposed to "if" it happens. If Mac has a great week of joint practices and plays well in the game against the Giants, does he get the nod over Cam in game 1? I'm not sure, but I know one of the reasons I am tuning in to the preseason games is to watch Mac.

No worries @Sicilian, I can understand the frustration....just passing it along.

Looking like Gilmore may not play in pre-season and may not be ready for the start of the season. If so, Williams and M. Jackson could be competing for a starting role.

Agree but Mac is even saying he doesn’t think he is ready yet.
That could be out of respect for Cam or not to tip Bills hat.
However he really could be thinking I’m going to watch Cam and learn this season.
I have mixed feelings if he in his mind is going to watch.
First thing I think is ok it’s good for QBs to sit back and learn.
However the second part says to me this was the most pro ready plug and play QB in the last 5 years arguably longer.
If he doesn’t want to lead the team fight now as a rookie coming out of Alabama’s pro style system. I would love to him to have more of a killer instinct.
I would guess he’s just toeing the line and doesn’t want to tip bills hat or upset Cam.

I don't recall him saying he wasn't ready, just that he's not focusing on week 1 right now, instead focusing on what he has to do to get better from yesterday. It's definitely team speak, something he's been coached into saying to the media (and is a good mindset to have in general), but we can't glean from that how he feels internally. It's the canned response.

Im willing to bet if Gilmore’s gets an extension or a pay raise we’d see him on the field the next day or so after.

Possibly, but yesterday BB said it was a physical issue.

The words "Girardi" and "reporting" shouldn't be used together.

News to Girardi is what toothpaste Jimmy G uses.

Every single thing you said in this post is wrong. Congratulations.

How is that Trent Brown us is our LT tirade going for you now?
