PATRIOTS TRAINING CAMP Patriots/Packers joint practice 8/17/23

[stcjones]

Ugh ….I hope Keion White is Ok…haven’t heard what injury he sustained ….just that he was limping!

 

[PatsFan2]

I doubt we see much of Mac in the preseason game after today’s practice. I want 60 minutes of Cunningham QB.

I think you see that next week not on Saturday.

Over Boutte Tough one there.

I think BB will carry Cunningham as the third quarterback, and I can’t imagine Boutte not making the team… But if either one ends up on practice squad, they will be snatched up

[TheBeers]

Can you imagine being Love and having to face down this D in your first joint practice as a starter?

I actually think they are going to be pretty good this year too.

Malik went Undrafted so that's the silver lining for me of him making it through waivers and on to our Taxi Squad.

 

[PatsFan2]

Well Tyquan and White got banged up the next time we see them should be Week 1. I don't see either playing in our last Preseason game.

You may be right… But even though it was just a brief time that he was on the field last week in the game… I think he showed some real flashes of brilliance there, and people took notice of his amazing quickness, (cat like Sammy!) athleticism and decision making…I think a lot of teams would take a flyer on him.

 

[Kasmir]

WR corp is going to be tight.
Is Boutte practicing himself onto the team? He won't make it past waivers.
It sounds like TT is doing well, and of course they won't cut bait with a 2nd year 2nd rounder.
I think carrying 6 WR's is a sure thing this year. (At least at cutdowns - they might move one during week 1)
Question is - what do they do with Malik?

QB3 of course.

 

[Kasmir]

I actually think they are going to be pretty good this year too.

Can you imagine howe devastating the Patriots offense would have been today if they had Love instead of Mac? He'd probably have gone 20-17-10 or something

The only folks who want to waive Malik are those who don't believe he can play QB in the NFL.

Sit down Pats fan. You just lost out on in practice video.

Still butthurt over the loss last season and the '97 Super Bowl I see.

Toodle-Loo!

Oh ****. That escalated quickly. Strike a nerve son?

 

[PWRxWLF]

But you see the ground and pound offense requires ONE thing that most fans here and ALL of the media will never allow, and that is PATIENCE. Sadly too many will be calling for mass firings after the first series if it doesn't end in a score.

The true results of a ground and pound offense often isn't seen often until the 4th quarter when the 30 odd rushes previously have its effect. But ignore the above, it seems like it is much more fun to celebrate the negative and hope for the worst so you can say I told you so.

How was I being negative Ken?

 

[PWRxWLF]

"Lost out on in practice video" is a thing?

Toodle-loo is as well. I got schooled!

 

[Betterthanmost]

Mac 10 is really dialed in.

1. Bad Packers team?
2. BOB effect?
3. Mac’s growth?
4. Better skill positional players than perceived?

Can't read that without hearing Robin Williams saying it in Mrs. Doubtfire's voice.

I don't think the Packers are bad. I don't think they are good either. I'd say they are an average football team.

But can I take E(5) all the above?
