We are on to Miami: Official week 1 pregame thread

[Zuma]

I am very nervous about Ferentz at RG, would rather see Hines there who's more powerful and a better run blocker. There's not as much tape on him, but I would try that. I am tired of seeing Herron at RT getting beat every other snap.

I was thinking Hines but he's never played a single snap in the NFL yet. Starting him is more of a risk then starting Ferentz who I think should not be on the 53 but IMO is safer. I hear ya.

Strange hasn’t played an NFL snap.

Surprised Herron made the team.

Their could be a difference in talent level but you are right.

 

[Zuma]

I still don't think this will stunt his NFL growth in the long run. Looking forward to him playing when he comes back.

Yeah, I thought he was right on the fence. It shows you the confidence level they have in Wynn's health and now Cajuste being banged up.

That means they have 1 open roster spot. Wonder who get's it. Logically, I'd say interior O-line, but we'll see.

Miami signed Bethel

 

[*ChungFu*]

Funny how overrated Wynn is on the Patriots' but the rest of the league avoided him like the plague. Nobody wanted him or his contract must feel like a kick in the gut for the homers.

Not really. I'm a homer and would immediately endorse his exit.

No shocker here:

Well Dolphins will know our playbook now if they didn't already! LOL

We signed Bowden so it is all even.

 

[The Brandon Five]

Nope, Bowden was signed to PS.

Roster is at 52. I just checked on the Pats site.

Might be waiting to announce who on the PS is activated so as not to tip Miami off about gameplan.

 

[catent]

Does Miami need ST help, or was the Bethel signing purely to gather intel?

I was referring to gathering intel. It does not matter if the player is on the 53 or PS when gathering intel. We added Bowden so Miami added Bethel.

I do not think Bowden playing is important, or Bethel for that matter. It is the intelligence that is added. And I think the Pats genuinely will use Bowden as a PS addition over the year.

 

[long distance]

If I was coach I'd put Onwenu at RT and Ferentz at RG if Wynn and Cajuste can't play. Herron should only be at LT.

Ferentz can't play anything at NFL level least RG. He can jump in at C and even that is a stretch..
