Will start this thread for miscellaneous discussion on the games.

Redskins/Ravens on right now.

I have the Redskins feed, with Theismann on it. Jesus he is so annoying.

So far Washington has really struggled.

I have a feeling that Gruden was propped up by Sean McVay, a lot.

They have me on the Patriots/Jags right not but it's supposed to flip over to Broncos/Bears at 7. Only saw a couple runs but Fournette looked good

Wow.

Herpy Derp Mike Glennon picked off on his second pass attempt for a pick six by Chris Harris.

LOL Mike Glennon. What idiot thought he was capable of being a starting NFL QB?
There were a lot of pundits who thought that.

Hey, I can take one look at his long necked ginger ass and realize there is no fucking way he is ever successful.

I have a feeling the Bears are going to be one of the worst teams in the league this year.

The front office has basically hung John Fox out to dry.

Siemian isn't much better, it still amazes me they wouldn't give us a pick for Romo considering how competitive they would have been with him

Here is how you know Glennon sucks, the Bucs drafted a QB so they didn't have to play Glennon. Seems pretty obvious to me at that point. He is just a big, awkward shitty QB.

Ultimately, it will probably come out that Romo honestly had no desire to play.

The way the whole thing rolled out, it does not smell right.

HAI GUYZ, WE CUT HIM

He is an arm. There is no question he has an NFL arm.

But he is so fugly and goofy looking, there is no damn way in hell a team follows him.

He might possibly be one of the most awkward looking QBs in NFL history,

I was concerned about the Redskins drafting Jonathan Allen.

So far, my fears might have been unfounded.

He looks fairly tame against a very depleted Ravens line.

No effing way.

He was just awful.

They paid him decent money which right now looks to be wasted.

If they were smart, they would just march with Trubisky and just quit it with the pretense.

He did not look like a veteran that is comfortable enough to have a halfway chance to win.

If you have a guy like that, just start the rookie and take your punishment.

I was pleased to see the Redskins look like warmed over shit tonight.

I get how we are supposed to say it is worthless preseason, but I saw things that I took for granted but don't look like the case.

I figured they would be focusing more on the run with the loss of their veteran WRs.

They can't run. And Kelley is about as pedestrian as they come. He is mindless battering ram who cannot take advantage of the decent zone blocking he does get.

They lived off their pass game and they did not exactly get stronger in that regard.

Besides Trubisky lacks actual playing experience. Why the hell wouldn't you want him getting as many real game reps as possible?

They had Glennon playing way too long.

Like they were in disbelief he actually was not very good and they kept thinking if they gave him more reps, he would be decent.

I saw a good part of the Bears game before flipping over to Nightshift at ten and yeah, Glennon looked like a journeyman backup. I realize he was made expendable after TB drafted Winston but still, I can't believe the $$ the Bears shelled out to sign him. It's only middling for a starting QB but if he ends up as the backup, that's one expensive backup.

The bad news is, Derek Barnett looked like a man on a mission last night with two sacks.

Love the player. Hate that he went to the Eagles.
