Preseason Week 3 Chatter Thread | Cardinals @ Cowboys | 08/23/18

I'm skeptical about these guys coming back from ACLs in well under a year. Other than Adrian Peterson, it seems like it takes most guys a while to get back to being themselves.

I think even Wentz comes back it's going to take some time to get back to his old self. We will see but I wouldn't be surprised if they struggle a bit.

I agree on Foles. He played over his head during the playoffs, but I don't think the Eagles are due for a big fall this season because Foles is not their regular starter. By the looks of things, Wentz will probably be ready to go sometime during the first month of the season.

I'm still skeptical of Wentz. He doesn't suck, but he was 24th in the league in completion percentage and 11th in YPA. Those are two very big QB markers for me.

Panthers/Patriots on now.

Should be interesting to see how the Panthers OL responds.

They are down three starters. Lost their RT, now LT Matt Kalil got a knee scope.

On what channel?

 

[boozeman]

On what channel?

This is local.

 

[boozeman]

Their OL is awful like ours.

 

[Cotton]

This is local.

Football snob!

 

[boozeman]

They sure seem to be featuring McCaffrey a lot. Dink and dunk.

Hey, I can't make it local for you.

 

[boozeman]

Newton breaks the pocket and fumbles.

 

[boozeman]

Whoa.

Jeremiah Sirles was the RT replacement and he is limping off the field.

The Panthers' OL is a shitshow right now.

 

[boozeman]

The starting RT for the Panthers now is Blaine Clausell.

 

[boozeman]

And...Ron Rivera has taken Newton out of the game.

Wait, he goes back in after a play.

Looks like despite a shitty OL, Rivera is not pulling the QB like a pussy.

 

[Cotton]

How did the Panthers get down field?

 

[boozeman]

How did the Panthers get down field?

Pretty much all running and dinking with McCaffrey.

It may be a ruse, but he is their offense right now.

Best thing for a bad OL is to run block. They are doing that.

 

[boozeman]

The Panthers kicked a FG and squirmed out of a 3rd and short to force a Patriot punt.

 

[boozeman]

Pretty clear right now that the Patriots defense is not doing anything but presenting simple looks for Newton to see.

A lot of soft coverage.

Their DL is also not moving, giving a lot of simple man on man blocking assignments.

Obviously Belichick has mailed this one in.

 

[bbgun]

Sanders just defeated the Skins all by himself on that drive

 

[boozeman]

I guess Andy Reid has more balls than Garrett.

Mahomes, Hill, Hunt all playing through the first quarter.

He definitely does. But then again so do basically 99% of men and 23% of women.
