Overreaction Monday isn’t till next month.
You would think. Over on the GDT (went back in to see how much stupid we'd end up with) there's some guy saying "usually you hope for some glimmer of hope from one of the young guys but not this time" or some such ****. Evidently didn't know we had a defense out there too.
My big takeaway is, our backup OL is really bad. This doesn't NOT matter, because we will end up playing some of them. It's not the same as if they were the first string.
Things I liked:
- A few more reps for Zappe, it's fun watching Malik C. .... it's not a 3-headed QB controversy when nobody excels though, and running the ball in against the other team's 3s isn't excelling. But it's legit fun to watch all 3. It's not like the Brady days when you're watching the 4 Tom reps and then might as well turn off the TV
- Thornton comes off the milk carton and does not fail. Between now and September, can he show enough to get back with the starting team? Is he perhaps running with the 2s and 3s because we want to convince ourselves he's the real deal before promoting him back to the 1s?
- The defense, certainly through 1st half. Unless this game is an aberration, White is a legit beast and Gonzo is at least a nice addition with skills and size... I want to say he's a beast too but I'm trying to be careful. Without an O, they'll still get the crap beaten out if them, but if we show some offensive competence to give them breathers, this defense could be scary. They're as good as the O lets them be, by occasionally getting off the field.
- Brendan Schooler are you F kidding me... special teams baton in the process of being passed.
- I don't podcast but if I did I would sign up for the McCourty twincast in a heartbeat, love those guys
- Better yet, freakin fire Zoloft and hire them
I see what's happening... I am getting all pumped up just in time to get Rodgersed in the regular season. Fuggit, at least we'll see him eat turf a time or two in the process,
