The official Patriots vs Lions's pre-season game thread

[Hart Lee Chung]

Serious question now, anyone think Ocho might get cut because of his lack of a grasp of the Playbook?

Especially the "catch the pass when it hits you dead on" play?

 

[RayClay]

BJGE = Greatest RB in Patriots history
Connolly = Greatest RG in Patriots history

Nothing to see here. These aren't the droids you're looking for.

I do not believe anyone is proposing #2 and you know it. With "All Pro" Matt Light and the equivalent of two 6'8" #1 picks (I think Vollmer easily if he hadn't been so raw) and the highest paid left guard on the planet (is he? must be close). the Pats need to find some way to get by with less than all pros at a couple spots, there's still a salary cap.

I'm sorry, but guys like Gorin, Ashworth and Andruzzi, all of whom were attained for less than Starbuck's charges for a cup of mud, led us to the promised land.

Guys gotta play, or get on the waiver wire and find some who can.

Galloway had a full offseason and didn't get the $4.5 million bonus, but he still got regular season games before getting cut.

Johnson's making the team.

Given that Deion Branch is currently on the back of a milk carton somewhere.......no.

 

[EJ Blitz]

why is it anytime I hear Darius Butlers name, he did something wrong.

 

[drakehead]

so why is chung still playing?

 

[IllegalContact]

It's funny how this week it's preseason and it doesn't matter. Last week, however, most people were singing a different tune.

Like who?

LOL.....

 

[PatsBoy12]

Nice! Good to know that butler is still in top form :bricks:

I really am losing hope for him. I've been one of his biggest supporters (sort of). By that I mean that I've been hoping for him to snap out of it and play like the flashes he showed more frequently. I just doesn't look like it's going to happen. It's all in his head now.

 

[BlueThunder]

Man...If all Butler can do is give a cushion he should be a sofa salesman.....

I think the difference is that last week we thought we saw what we're getting this season, whereas this week we're not seeing what we were expecting.

That said, there really is little correlation between preseason and regular season.

This is a lot like the Pats/Jags game... only we're the Jags

I never thought it would be possible, but he's been awful this preseason - poor route running, not grasping the playbook, and now dropping balls. His body looks oddly contorted on just about every play he's targeted. I still don't think it will happen, his pedigree is enough to keep him here, but he might not be as much of a factor as we thought. He has a LOT of work to do.

 

[Brady_to_Moss]

I missed the game..what did ocho do today? Anything?

 

[TheSolderKing]

I missed well over 1/2 the game... moved to skool

[Betterthanmost]

so why is chung still playing?

Wilfork is still out there too, he is 75 right? Unless someone else is also wearing this jersey.
