The next 2 weeks are going to be a tale of two extreme emotions for me.
On one hand, I am so excited about the potential of this team, in particular the running game and pass rush. I so badly want Man-teats Mac to start from day 1. He looks like a real QB. I would not get mad at the inevitable rookie moments (go check out some of Brady's 2001 games for perspective), but watching him grow with a strong OL and D around him would be awesome. No Viagra needed!
But if Cam starts, just play The Price is Right lose-the-game sound to show my disappearing excitement. Wah-wah-wah. I thought watching Philip Rivers' throwing motion was cringy. At least Rivers could read a defense.
And I know Cam is starting. That same delusional part of my brain that thinks I am going to win the lottery when I buy a ticket still holds out hope that Belichick is going to cut Cam and let it ride with the rookie. As long as I am dreaming, I could become a porn star some day too, I suppose.
