PATRIOTS NEWS Patriots Practice Reports - August 18

[State]

I have seen probably 15 posts from you trying to convince us here that Landon Jackson dominated Campbell in their matchup, so I looked online to see whether there was anything supporting this. I found something thst showed their entire matchup from last year, including the play you have posted here and several other times. There were 36 plays in which Jackson lined up,against Campbell. Jackson didn’t get a sack on the play you keep showing or screenshotting, or any of the other 35 pays I saw on that tape. He got zero (0) sacks, one (1) hit, and one (1) pressure on the QB that game when going against Campbell.

This is why people remain unconvinced by your many many posts on this topic.

It’s only been 11 posts.

Suddenly we may have a little depth at tackle.

With Grandpa Moses we need it.

I played a fun game of drinking every time they said hospital ball after Dobbs came in and was drunk before halftime. lmao

Are you sure you were not drunk by the end of the 1st Q?

If Diggs, Chism, Williams, Bourne and Polk aren’t playing, we need bodies in case the guys who do play get hurt. And I wouldn’t be surprised if Boutte and Douglas aren’t playing too just because it’s the last preseason game.

Looking for what Baker shows.

Maybe, but I don't want to seem like a light weight. lol

Not according to actual game stats… all you want your backup to do is protect the football… Dobbs isn’t great at that.

We signed him over keeping Jacoby. I trust Vrabel's thinking on this..

Dobbs is cheaper, he worked with Vrabel in the past… we need to stop pretending this coaching staff is beyond criticism. Belichick wasn’t, nobody is…

I know people often poopoo the last preseason game as meaningless or less of a watch than the game the starters appear in, but as a football junkie I enjoy the last game. The cream often rises to the top, guys on the bubble either kick the door down and show out… while other guys show they don’t belong.

The end of the roster will be solidified Thursday… some guys will make roster cuts more difficult. I hope Wooldridge play the entire game at QB, let’s see what the kid has. Let’s give our weapons an opportunity.

The end of the roster has probably been solidified.

The last pre-season game is about the fight for Practice Squad spots on our roster and on the roster of other.

It is also possible that we play veterans in order to showcase them for trade. However, that is a very dangerous strategy. First, performance against next week's Home Depot clerks doesn't mean much. Alos, this strategy costs the team money if the player were to be injured.

To be blunt, a WR could get 4 TD's and not have any chance of making the roster.

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

Of course, no one is saying that at all. We've had no plan or direction for years. Now we do, the teams headed in the right direction regardless.. the roster had been the NFL bottom barrel for years. We have some pieces we just need to stack wins as much as we can this season it will only help with the culture build.

Nah, I can remember years past where the final roster spots came down to the final preseason game. This one will be no different….

We’d rather have Brissett over Dobbs… Dobbs was just cheaper and Vrabel’s boy.

I see they are already signing guys off the street to play.
Pats will rest most.

I don't think you understand how bad Brissett was. He wanted to be a starter and no longer was willing to accept that he isn't a NFL starter..Dobbs is fine with his job he has no aspirations of starting.. sit back and collect $$$..

please stop

Dobbs was the better option
it was McD's decision

He's not good. He's less than average. He smells awful. He was better on F Troop.

Dobbs was splendid on F Troop, he even won an Emmy.

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

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