That Donnell pass would have been challenged.

 

[Sanjuro]

I agree, but I think he needs those reps, he missed them with the thumb, he sat game 1. I think he wants these series to get as much built with this group as he can. The first few weeks of an NFL season always has the rust showing with offenses wether it's dropsies, chemistry issues, defense miscues, o-line problems, etc. Tom is gonna have to deal with that week 5, for him mentally I think it makes sense.

I'm also of the mindset that if you're gonna get hurt... you're gonna get hurt. I used to think different like when welker went down in the texans games, but ultimately injuries can happen at any given moment in this league. I think these reps are super valuable for Tom right now and worth it.

 

[Line_HTX]

Obligatory fuck Dallas.

 

[MechDX]

Savage is just fearless. Doesn't flinch when the defense is bearing down on him and still delivers. Poise like a mother fuck.

 

[Sanjuro]

You don't give Tom Brady seven seconds...

 

[TheFatOne]

I will miss his post game conferences. Those are the best

 

[LyleLanley]

I completely forgot about the Pats drafting Richards.

 

[Colasante]

I doubt Matty P. will be much more loquacious once it's his turn.

 

[Futurevoid]

Keep the Iron man streak going Eli. We're lost without you.

 

[yankeehater]

I'm not joking. The idea that players don't need reps is ridiculous. It takes a while sometimes for teams to get on the same page. I thinnk for tom mentally this is going to be different than he's ever dealt with and he wants to squeeze in what he can, so he's "more ready than ever" in his mind. I think it's more mental than anything, because it's obviously pre-season, but I think he wants a checklist of things to work on mentally, as many as he can.

I hope the football gods strike Brady down for this.

 

[Sanjuro]

Matty Slater postgame conferences are going to be the best.

The media is silent. Suddenly, a dot matrix printer goes off for six minutes. Head Coach Matthew Slater appears...

 

[Bread]

It's the last time Tom can play for 4 weeks, obviously he should be in there playing.

 

[Line_HTX]

There was no control or possession. Thanks, Front 7.

Especially timing throws, once the read and the decision are made it's all muscle memory, and that needs repetitions.

 

[msdstc]

I completely forgot about the Pats drafting Richards.

So did I. I'd say it's one of belichicks annual "i'm reaching... why? Fuck you that's why" like Tavon Wilson, Jermaine Cunningham, buuuut he did the same thing with Duron Harmon and that somehow panned out, so I guess it works every now and then. That being said Richards looks like a mess out there.

 

[MechDX]

Here comes The Weed!!!

Where the hell is Gobias!!!??

 

[VeryGooster]

45 yards rushing by the Giants

Super Bowl winners confirmed

 

[chuckddd]

Going to have to use Hargrave situationally. He's getting his ass kicked against the run.

 

[Elfforkusu]

I hope the football gods strike Brady down for this.

Why? Who cares?

I root against Brady, but it's the preseason. Let the old man get a TD or two, he's not going to have many chances at the field once Jimmy G steals his job.

 

[Line_HTX]

Neat. Weeden at QB the final 3 quarters.

Savage did pretty well.

 

[Duxxy3]

Dump that perkins kid. You can have Dobson.

This seems like common sense to me. The idea that it's just automatic, yeah I guess I agree to an extent, but EVERYONE needs practice to be perfect. It's what makes the greats, great. Ray Allen himself practiced all day every day even late in his 30s to keep his shot perfect.

As for timing throws those are key, he needs to build rapport with Hogan, him and edelman need to get on the same page in regards to his speed, depending on where that's at post injury, Brady had bennet open in the back of the endzone last week and over tossed him, likely because he's used to the timing with gronk, who probably reads the line better and obviously has a bigger radius. It also looks like Tom for whatever reason has a thing for Dobson, I think he wants him on this team so he's trying to display that. Could be wrong, but he goes his way a lot, his first throw was to him down the seam.

 

[Spinluck]

Hard to believe Brady lost the starting job to Jimmy this year.

Father time is undefeated.

 

[Sanjuro]

I can't find tonight's Kaepernick vs USA in my PPV listings.

 

[MechDX]

The Weed extracting his revenge on Jerruh

 

[Tom Penny]

Brady needs reps with backups against backups. Cocaine is a hell of a drug.

 

[Line_HTX]

Yo, that Weeden accuracy though.

Practice ≠ Preseason

 

[coolasj19]

So why exactly can I not use PS Vue to watch this here Texans game? Doesn't help that the attenna is shitting the bed too.

 

[msdstc]

Practice ≠ Preseason

I would say the first few weeks of football are borderline practice for Tom at this point, and he's not getting that this year.

Network down for maitenance so the ps4 isn't working with it right now. That being said I'm running it on the amazon stick right now fine.

 

[MechDX]

The Weed out here just slicing up the Cowboys.

You brought this upon yourself Jerry

Go Pack

 

[msdstc]

Here's the true successor to the GOAT coming to the field.

 

[Elfforkusu]

The Packups are on local TV!

YEAH!

 

[Duxxy3]

I'm hoping we can stash Lucien on the practice squad.

 

[Sanjuro]

It is what it is. I mean, this is the same fanbase that proclaimed Brady to be done not too long ago.

Only reason he is out there is because he is the backup QB today.

 

[Beach]

Get excited over a performance against guys that won't even make a practice squad, brehs.

3 or so years ago Terrell Pryor got the Raiders starting QB job for what he did against the Seahawks in the fourth preseason game.

Spoiler

 

[Line_HTX]

That 1st & Goal and 4th & Goal was fucking disgraceful.

Bunch of bitches and Weeden did a massive overthrow.

Soft pudding run blocking doo-doos.

 

[Sanjuro]

Brissett has a very quick release.

 

[MechDX]

You win this time Jerruh but the war rages on.

 

[Elfforkusu]

Montgomery laying out for that one.

Pity the ground had other ideas...

No no no. PS Vue is working for me. But the ABC 13 channel, isn't playing the game. It's playing filler crap. On the guide it says "NFL Football" when I click to go to the channel it says "NFL Football, Live from Arlington, Texas at AT&T Stadium". When it loads, some weird ABC crap.

 

[msdstc]

This is definitely an unusual preseason for me. Typically I don't have many qualms about who gets the final roster spots, but there are a bunch of bubble guys that I want to see on the team. I like Foster, I like Derby, as much as I don't believe in him I think I want Dobson on this team, but they seem to like Martin as the guy. There are a few others I'm missing, but it'll be interesting regardless.

 

[msdstc]

Brissett has a very quick release.

He does and it's a Cannon too. I like him a lot. The release, the spiral, the pocket presence. Everything I've seen from him early on his been better than Jimmy G outside of the garbage time chiefs series. Obviously it's Jimmy's job, but I wouldn't be shocked if Jacoby is the guy they end up preferring... sooner than later too.

That's weird, have you watched football on vue before?

Pack T #62 with a classic "look out" block on 3rd and long.

O-line depth will always be a struggle, I guess.

 

[VeryGooster]

KING

 

[LyleLanley]

Cyrus looked real good there.

 

[Line_HTX]

Showers lost the ball, and Charles James recovered.

That gon' be on some new socks or something.
