NFL: 2024 Training Camp and Preseason

[LT]

I really liked RG3. Damn.

Odd timing with college football back in 2 weeks.

RG3 was different, I'll give him that. Tried to have different angles on his takes. I mean, in this age of media, you need to stand out vs blend in with the others. Otherwise, it's easy for the network to hire the most recently retired players and give them a shot at a lower price point.

He fit better for college FB IMO than with the NFL show.

Just seems like odd timing given that football season kicks off within 4 weeks.

Oh yea I mostly only saw his CFB stuff. His broadcasts were very fun.

RG3 doing color seemed like a better fit for him and his talent vs as an in-studio analyst.

Sanchez, for me, has been a surprise with his analysis work, when he goes on Cowherd's show and others to break down the game and QB play. Didn't think he was that good a student of the game. I expect that more from an Alex Smith and Matt Ryan, but then again, Sanchez wasn't that athletic a QB. Just didn't have a big arm. He does have a few quirky color comments, like a couple of years ago, saying how someone did something so fast, like a teenager deleting their browsing history....

Nobody worth a shit playing for the Eagles on offense it sounds like. They did a joint practice.

Trying to keep the offense even with the Patriots?

 

[Romang67]

What a great punt. Best play we'll see today?

Drake Maye takes the field in the 2nd quarter

 

[Romang67]

Good for Maye. Looking good against admittedly not great opposition.

 

[Avs_19]

Nice to see Maye get a decent amount of snaps tonight. You can see the talent and athleticism with that one third down throw in the middle of the field and scrambles. Also the rawness and inconsistency with him hesitating and missing a couple of easy ones where he was high on both. Pretty solid showing overall.

Pickett is as bad as ever. Oh my God does he look bad.

 

[Tuggy]

My boy Drake Maye looking decent tonight.

 

[EpochLink]

RG3ception.

Somewhere, Rob Parker is justifying his ‘cornball brother’ stance from 2012/2013.

Tanner McKee should be the #2 QB for the Eagles if all things were equal.

 

[GKJ]

Bailey Zappe QB4?

Botched snap and that ends this one.

 

[Unholy Diver]

Cage seems like he'd be a better fit as Al Davis

 

[SirClintonPortis]

Gruden always worked well with QB who ran the west coast offence, since he was part of the Holmgren coaching staff in Green Bay.

Rich Gannon found his game after years in the league.

I was just implying that Gruden also had a habit of saying he likes every QB.

In reality, even the worst QBs are raked through the coals of learning the position. That means playbooks, reading defenses, etc. So you can have guys like Chris Simms or JT O'Sullivan talk about them. In the case Simms, because actually is deficient in many things, he might know what elements to look for, which why he's quite good at scouting them(i.e he saw something in Mahomes back before all the NFL production)
Football is just as much a cerebral game as it is physical, and quarterbacks have to study. EX-QBs got thousands of hours of study. The NFL fan...zero is common, or they follow certain channels like Alex Rollins at best.

QB converts also utilize that knowledge, hence why Kelce and Edelman can slice things up. They read defenses.

And personality or demeanor is something that leads people to mis-infer about their study habits. Deion Sanders seems like a fun guy. But while certainly did have his fun, he is one of the most workaholic players ever(he said he was looking at opponents' film after the game is over in that HoF documentary), and one with very high standards(he's not keen on Eli being a HoFer). It's similar with Romo.

Gruden was also a racist, homophobic, transphobic and misogynistic f***ing moron who got caught. Good he won a Super Bowl but his name is as popular as 10 week old ass water with toilet paper surrounding it.

Checking in on the Bears game to watch Odunze do Odunze things.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Caleb Williams is fun.

 

[GKJ]

Daniel Jones 11/18 but 2 picks, one of which was a touchdown on only a 5-yard return. Guessing that was a broken pass.

 

[GKJ]

Coaches probably holding their breaths though.

 

[HisIceness]

I would like to dupe someone to pay me $160 million the way Daniel Jones duped the NY Giants.

 

[Bounces R Way]

Are the 2024 Chicago Bears the greatest team ever assembled?!
