Official Pre-season Gameday Thread. Bears @ Patriots (Week 2)

[AtomicDawg]

Some guys are very streaky like that. Some players can get into the zone instantly. Some take a few throws to slip into it. Jimmy i think is the 2nd one.

That 2 min drill really showed that point. Got into a zone and got hot quickly. Will have to watch that though because opponents can key in on that.

Overall good half for JG

 

[The Gr8est]

Can't see the game, but happy to see my binky Derby do so well.

Sounds like he has no chance to make it to the PS. Too many teams have needs at TE.

I read a negative about Derby was that he was a bit undersized at 6-5 255. Really ? That is undersized?

 

[DefenseRules]

When the regular season comes, expect a lot of quick, easy completions to start games for JG. Plays very well when he gains momentum

I'm not worried about the Gman. He knows what he is doing out there. He has been with the team for awhile. He is not a rooky. He will be alright.

Nice segment on the Long boys

On the Pats it is

I thought it was cool

This roster is seriously stacked. Trying not to get overly excited here but they look to have more quality depth across more positions than any other team I'm aware of.

With the weapons he will have, it will be easier for him to find his rhythm early in games.

As we accurately mentionned, I foresee a lot of short quick throws to start games and get Jimmy in gear. If we can also establish the run consistently, we should be fine.

 

[Ross12]

That last drive should kind of settle the "why isn't BB giving Jimmy valuable experience and running the ball so much" conversation... Don't think Jimmy really needs the reps that badly.

 

[manxman2601]

Last two draft/fa classes:

Flowers
Cyrus
Thuney
Derby
Malcolm Brown
Shaq Mason/Tre Flowers
David Andrews
Malcolm Mitchell
Jordan Richards

And that doesn't include the likes of Coleman, J Jones, Roberts, KGH, Grissom

I'll take it.

 

[Froob]

What's up with Brady? Minor injury I take it?

Cut himself with scizzors fixing his cleats...weird.

True. I'm hoping Waddle can supplant Cannon.

 

[patsinthesnow]

If Cooper is legit at RG, this OL will do a complete 180 scary bad OT depth however).

What a wet blanket. lol

 

[jah]

Derby, I'm praying for you...better get outta the tub Harbor or you'll be working at Wal-Mart

Harbor isn't even in the tub, he's playing this game. Just not that good.

Sliced his thumb cutting tape on his cleat, apparently.
