PATRIOTS NEWS Patriots Practice Reports - August 18

Sure… just coincidence Dobbs used to be Vrabel’s QB. Also McD has control over personnel now… stop sniffing glue.

Dobbs had 2 career starts under Vrabel
please stop the insanity

Yeah… I’m looking under his career stats to see when he played for McDaniels.

Never is the answer…

 

[Real fan 02]

Brissett dealt with the worst sack percentage of his entire career last year. He was running for his life. It’s a team game.

You not wrong wozzy..but he knew what he was stepping into. He was on board with the starting qb knowing Drake would be inserted at some point heck he even lost the job in training camp however the volunteers felt Brissett should take the spanking early on. I only hope to see Dobbs if we are blowing out a team.

Yeah, I was just disagreeing with Dobbs being “better” than Jacoby… he’s not.

It's a discussing 2 guys that will never be NFL starting qbs

No sane person could question Campbell's run blocking. He can put on a clinic. Last year he did run blocking pancakes against Oklahoma and USC that were NC-17. Total domination.

But pass blocking on an island with his stubby wingspan? Or handling a stunt since he engages too closely because of his lack of length? well, that's still TBD.

Landon Jackson is a Buffalo Bill. So this will be an intriguing match up.

Landon Jackson had two pressures and zero sacks that game. LSU QB’s that game completed 24 of 35 passes and weren’t sacked, I wonder how Will Campbell did the other 33 passes attempts?

Ok am I seeing things?? Why does that Guy below look so much better than Wheelchair can't catch Baker?? Asking for a friend.

I think Jiles is a good WR, but he doesn't do anything special. I am a Jiles supporter since last year when we signed him.

 

[captain stone]

@captain stone you know about that??

I figured it had to be either Thanksdad or Brandon the King (of STs Penalties)...

 

[captain stone]

It's been Moses and Campbell in practice with the ones. He's been on both sides with the two's and threes.

Was he over at RT while Bryant was at LT? It's just hard to think they like him when he really hasn't seemed to get ahead of Jacobs on the right.

Per Vrabel today...he wants Lowe to be able to play both sides and they have been doing that. I don't know how often.

I could've sworn I saw Low at RT at some point during the game Saturday...

 

[captain stone]

Under McDaniels Tom's average distance per pass attempt was 7.4 yards. The short game was a focal point within Josh's play calling during the Brady years and I assume it will be the same with Maye for a ton of different reasons.

Actually, 7.4's not too shabby a YPA...

1 - 6th grade I received As in English (West Coast). 7th grade I started German(EP). Week 1 learning my German class name and how to say "Badezimmer" and "Kugelscreiber" went fine. Week 2-N was a bit F'd up learning sentence structure, past tense, how Germans make up words (EP, rotating line, new receivers, JM tweaking his system for the players he has.)

Every year since 2000 (maybe 2007 exception) they've started out slow. Much higher level players, coaches, and structure and it'll take some time to jell this year. Once again in NE the real season doesn't start until October.

We can't afford to treat September as an extended Training Camp. Those days are Over.

 

[captain stone]

Yeah looks like Wilson had an ankle injury. I threw up a little in my mouth when I saw the tweets about Bradbury taking 1st team reps at Center...again. If he is still there for game one...then maybe I'm not getting the bigger picture or missing something. He's terrible.

Not that I disagree with you; but would you rather have Bradbury or last year's starter, Ben Brown, starting at Center for Week One?
There's really no other option at this time.

 

[captain stone]

Brown > Bradbury

Well that answers that.

 

[captain stone]

I can't mentally wrap my head around the idea of cutting or trading Cole Strange and keeping Ben Brown.

How do you feel about Brown vs Sidy the Sow?

Wilson at Center and Brown at LG. Per Vrabel and PFF Brown has improved at LG in the past couple weeks.

 

[captain stone]

This ^ is what fans don’t realize about practice. They put players in difficult situations so they can work on them. First down from the twenty is not challenging.

More or less agree with this. I try not to place too much stock in completion % during practice or even pre-season games; other factors unknown to us might be in-play sometimes...

I wonder, however, what McD really thinks of Maye's overall QB mechanics...

 

[captain stone]

With Grandpa Moses we need it.

And with our future All-Pro Left Guard at the other end

Because he IS better.

Yeah I think we can all agree that they Both suck.

I really wish they had played Wilson exclusively at Center during TC & preseason. LG in the NFL's gonna be way too new to him this year; maybe by this time next year but I feel he has enough on his plate for this year already.
