Game Day Thread Preseason Game Thread (NE vs. NC): The Countdown to Carolina begins.... (8/28)

[Fencer]

So #Patriots have a 304-pound tight end in Michael Williams. How long until the competition committee makes it illegal....?

Ben Volin

That's an example of why I don't hate Volin. I may look down on him. I may think that his employers should replace him ASAP, rather than give him yet more time to learn to be competent. But I don't hate him. He tries. He just doesn't succeed much.

Can anyone guess who our leading rusher is in this game? It will shock you.

 

[Marqui]

Dobson will make the roster, on the sheer fact of him being a 2nd rounder. Really hard for the team to let go, even if he is inconsistent

Yeah, they didn't even cut Wilson a couple years ago when he was like the worst safety in the league.

 

[A man named Brady]

Dobson will make the team but won't be anything more than a 4/5 WR

Im afraid it'll be based on LaFell...

 

[TBR]

If Bill can trade Devey, he can trade Dobson. I wonder if he'll try

 

[Brady6]

Yeah, after Butler and Brown there really isn't much depth. I thought Ryan was going to step up this year but he has been horrible. I'm thinking Fletcher is our number 3 corner right now.

Ryan should hate himself because he had a shot to lockdown a starting job for a long time and screwed it up. He is by far my biggest disappointment.

I'm going with Tom Brady.

 

[JMC00]

Our secondary is a concern going into this season. Yikes.

Nice job posting that after the starters had been pulled and it was backups

 

[RobertWeathers]

Yeah, they didn't even cut Wilson a couple years ago when he was like the worst safety in the league.

He came on at the end of the year. He still is very average.

Probably Brady lol

 

[Soul_Survivor88]

This is basically a 2-min drill

 

[BradyFTW!]

Man, impressive as hell that Krause held onto that ball.

 

[patsinthesnow]

Targeting Dobson 0/4

 

[RobertWeathers]

15 yds????

 

[BradyFTW!]

I dunno if that was an underthrow by Garoppolo or Dobson failing to come back to the ball, but it was ugly.

 

[RobertWeathers]

Nice job by Krause

 

[Fencer]

Boyce isn't here....seems like he's not gonna make the roster

Mark Daniels ?@MarkDanielsPJ 43s44 seconds ago
Not here: Edelman, LaFell, Roberts, Cadet, Watson, DFletcher, Martin, Cannon,Wendell, Barker, Stork, Vellano, Josh Boyce, and Chris Jones.

That's a good inference. He's not going to have a chance to offset the negative accumulation of evidence, except insofar as they may offer him a PS spot yet again. (He's still PS-eligible, correct?)

 

[Marqui]

Dopson got separation there.

 

[RobertWeathers]

Bad throw by Grapes
