Patriots Training Camp Day 17 8/25- Joint Practice with Giants

[rochrist]

Surely you can't be serious.

You know that Meyer would have had a 1000 yard season last year if he'd played all the games. With Cam Freaking Newton throwing him the ball. Right?

I

Edelman needs to come back to yell “You’re too FAT!”

Man I miss the squirrel.

Ok good to know that Judon is a positive guy who isn't especially funny

I guess at this point in my life I'm still basically in high school but instead of laughing at whatever the attractive popular kids say, I laugh at whatever the good players say. Judon is hilarious in my book, absolute riot!

If BB starts Cam tomorrow it proves he has a death threat or a NFL/BLM mandate to not have a white kid take a black man's job.
I'm kidding - but not really. It's where the world is right now.

Man I miss the squirrel.

I was hoping he'd be around more this offseason. Maybe next year.

So the theme for receivers in this joint practice is "Keeping Up With the Joneses."

I think he’ll start Cam tomorrow either way. He has to have something to compare Mac’s performance today against.

He already has what he needs to know in order to make a decision

 

[RobertWeathers]

I can't imagine it's easy for him considering he was basically forced into retirement due to injury

Pretty much all rookie QB's are bad. You just want to make sure they're the "right kind of bad" to see if you can develop them later.
Generally teams try to indoctrinate all rookies year one. Teach what it's like to be a "Patriot", how they do this & that - a lot of "Hey this is the ****ing NFL, we don't do that here. This is how you'll do it from now on" ... Year 2 is when teams really try to sharpen someone's skill set.

Mac has been fast-tracked. All summer he's got the ball out faster, looked more decisive & besides velocity has better arm talent than Cam. He'll struggle, have ups & downs but won't be overwhelmed. Almost no difference in ceiling. It's not like we're a SB team with Cam but going 6-10 with Mac.

Landing spot, draft slot, shapes a prospect maybe more than anything else. Out of all the QB's he landed in the best position by far. That's enormous all prospects but esp for QB's.

Has he really been fast tracked any more than the other round 1 guys? Seems like all of them have been getting similar opportunities in games and practices.

Based upon what I've heard about this offseason's level of play, Daniel Jones may soon be available.

you seem to have missed this key phrase: “we may be interested in”

Or it could mean he's seen all he needs to see from Jones and wants to give Mac's arm a break.

Surely you can't be serious.

I am serious and stop calling me Shirley

And I'm going to respond this way every time someone says that

Just to be clear, you're saying that Bill Belichick will make his roster decisions based on political correctness, worrying about appearances, and desire to please the NFL public relations department. And that the NFL doesn't give white quarterbacks a fair chance.

And that a decision to start a veteran QB over a rookie in an exhibition game will prove all of this.

And that you're not really kidding?

 

[Deus Irae]

The odds are very good that Tampa isn't winning the superbowl this year too, doesn't mean they should bench Brady.

Completely different kettle of fish.

 

[Uptown]

Anybody have any insight on this guy? I heard he’s been playing well for NYG. Maybe someone we’d be interested in..
