2026 NFL Preseason Week 1 Chatter Thread | 08/13/2026-08/16/2026

There were a lot of rumblings about how weak the coaching was at Penn State. Not just for Aller, but others, including Shelton who we apparently have to work on. The program is nothing like it used to be back in the rape days.
Franklin messed with the OC's frequently and couldn't ever decide on what kind of offense he wanted to run. Prior to Allar, they had been running a more typical college offense with mobile (but less talented) QBs, then recruits Allar who had 5 star talent but is a prototypical drop back passer with limited mobility. They didn't know how to use him and never brought in an OC who did. They had multiple NFL caliber WRs transfer because of it, and the OL was annually overhyped.
 
Okay, so we are all watching tonight, right? Are we just going to use this thread for chatter? I can't eve remember how we normally do it in preseason. @boozeman, guide me, my friend.

I won’t be as we have a wedding to go to and will be driving three hours back home.
 
He might turn out to be a HOFer, but I always wondered about the combine wonder at LB. Pure athleticism isn't as important there like corner or edge, it's more vision, instincts, toughness, etc. A little like RB on the defensive side. And I saw a few highlights at OSU where he was jogging after the QB near the end of a scramble while Reese was busting his ass.
 
It's one drive in one preseason game but I do think Downs and all the things that he's able to cover for allowed Reese and Styles to kind of freelance and be ultra aggressive going downhill, which won't be a luxury they have in the NFL.
 
Didn't realize the Bills' new stadium had real grass. Good for them.
 
There's absolutely no chance Dart is any good, he'll have a few moments over the years but there is no God damn chance in the world this goofy idiot is a top 5-10 QB for a several year stretch.

Good news is we will witness the hilarity. Should be awesome
