If Tremble is the real deal I see little or no reason to hang onto Thomas. We've wasted 3 years waiting for him to develop. Time to cut loose and move on and save some money we can use on OT or LB. I believe if we sign anyone it will be after they clear waivers and it will be a VET OT and possibly a LBer. Of the two I believe we have a better chance of filling the LBer spot with a quailty vet over OT.

I like the zip he puts on the ball but I completely disagree about his accuracy. That's, IMO, his biggest downfall.

Yes, so childish. He does it to all my posts because he disagreed with me on a topic years ago. I just take it with a grain of salt. That's about the only time I get the poo is from the bottom of the barrel trolls on this forum.

I sure the hell hope it is us. I wanted Watson but that is too steep of a price to pay. Especially for a guy who doesn't want to be in Houston and also has all these legal issues that could drag out for years.

I usually see posted in the forum updates on our injured players. Can anyone give me an update on our injured players? Robinson, Smith and Taylor are the ones that come to mind. Appreciate it.

Yes I saw this and no doubt the narrator voice is obnoxious. I think he navigated the offense well and am super excited with a real game plan in place. What seems to be a constant challenge for us is it seems, not always, that we are always scheduled against a new HC game one. We never get the chance to utilize previous years schemes to game plan off of.

I like the early cuts. Get those out that you are 100% sure aren't going to be on the team or PS. Considering we have 18 spots to go and 16 spots for PS. Pretty much everyone but two could be on our final roster and practice squad. Minus the free agents, if any, we pick up.

Considering how bad our secondary was just a year ago this is quite impressive. I really think Taylor is going to be another steal from this draft.

Heart say bring Smitty back just because he would be a beast in this offense. But we need a LT badly and our LB Corps would be sweet with Luke. Luke and Gross

IMO Rhule and Co. were going with their hearts in this last preseason game. I am hoping starting this week we put the best 5 out there. Move Moton to the LT, Daley beside him, Paradis (maybel Elflien)Brown and Christensen is who I would begin the week with.

Absolutely, If he legal woos put him in jail all bets are off.

I'm sticking with Jansen because we need continuity more than youth with our new kicker. Secondly, He solid and let's face it. It's not like he has to make the tackle on the punt team. If we are relying on him for the tackle on the punt team we're screwed. 35 is not old for a LS. If we can't trade Fletcher than make him one of our PS players. We get 16.

I was a bit concerned that they were going to bring him along slowly but after watching him with the starters yesterday. He is going to be a beast his rookie year. I think he is benefitting from being with Brady before. Brady knows what he can do. He, IMO, is the best pick of the draft.

Good god guys. Madden sucked when he first started doing commentary. (go watch A Football Life John Madden) I love his takes and he says some funny things which makes it enjoyable. Give him a chance to grow into this position. He has the gametime mentality and I for one is glad he points out gaffs and mistakes.

I was only able to watch the highlights on Youtube. They showed a quite a few of Darnold getting pressusre. It's hard to agree with antsy. He's stepping up, moving around and trying to find a target downfield before taking a sack or making a bad throw. (highlights showed one) Good coverage? Poor routes? Missed assignments? I don't know. We have to figure this line out. What I did like is that he used all his weapons, Arnold, Hubbard, Marshall, DJ and Anderson. I know this thread is on Darnold but DAMN Marshall is going to have a monster rookie year.

1-8 15 yds 2 pick 6s and the Huddle Server meltsdown. seriously 9-14 200 yds 2 TDs

Exactly. I used to do work around the house listening to Guess Who's Greatest Hits. I don't know why but when I put them on I stay focused and can work for hours. Different Strokes for Different Folks.

Scott who? This comes from a guy who's career stats of 1,314 yd and a 50% completion rate. WTF does he know about preparing to be a starting QB. Cam is unique and so what if he dances in-between plays. Not sure I'd call him a racist but damn sure a Cam hater.

Gotta argue on Henning. He was the sole reason why we came back in the Cheatriot Super Bowl in 2003. Had he not altered our game plan we would have been destroyed. I'll give you are real OC that was a piece of crap. Jeff Davidson OC 2010 Worst Player Haruki Nakmura

Lame, really Lame. College replace coaches because their current team sucks. Top level HS QBs aren't going to go to a program that doesn't give them the best opportunity to succeed. The rare exception is a hometown star that wants to play locally. To Rhule's credit he built both programs from the ground up. 2020 was Brady if you ask me. I think he wanted Bridgewater since he had some success with him in New Orleans. Made sense. Darnold was Rhule and Fitterer. So we'll see. What really chaps my ass is the multitude of posters, like you, that want to just post negative threads. It's one thing to post a negative thread with valid points but to reach on a topic like this one is very lame. If you don't like the Panther's good or bad. Go join another fan base and spread your hate there.

I think he has a great offensive mind but was handcuffeed by his own design. He was the one that promoted signing Bridgewater. I think this season he'll have everything he needs to show he's the man. I cannot see how he can't be successful with the weapons he has. If Darnold execute the offense and limits his mistakes. He'll be a top candidate for the next HC. That said, if Brady does well. What's next. I would hope we have someone in the pipeline that can utilize the same system that works well with Brady.

I was thinking the same thing. Brees was a master at this. Kill us underneath and than strike deep. How many times did we have open receivers downfield but TB5 would take the short throw or underthrow the deep ball. I'm excited to see how we play when we actually game plan and utilize the entire playbook. Preseason is boring and fans get worked up because it looks like the actual Rivera playbook in the regular sesaon.

I get the part where we shouldn't be too excited over players in preseason. After all A. Edwards was the MVP of training camp at least once. IMO, What the difference is consistency. It's Horn being on someone like a blanket all the tiime, Marshall making contested catches time after time. Christensen improving leaps and bounds from the beinging of training camp until now. Tremble making catches when his question mark was whether he could catch. Smith showing the same skills as Marshall. Nixon, Taylor and the other lower round picks showing they have the talent to play. Hurney and G-man had a nice pick here and there and some would show a flash that would pump you up. It just seems to me that these guys are legit and will contibute to this team. The FAs are IMO not as exciting, at least on the offensive side. Arnold was hyped up in practice but I haven't heard much about him during preseason. Unless of course he is considered a starter and Rhule didn't play him. I do believe he and Darnold are going to have a good season. Erving and Elfein haven't really grabbed rolls that we all figured were written in stone. Perryman was a disaster, Reddick was a great pick for the defense and Luvu may help elivate the loss of Perryman. I do like that Fitterer doesn't just say F It and let players go to waiver wire without trying to get something for it. I can't remember when Hurney or Gettleman every traded a player we were probably going to cut and get something for him. There isn't a GM in football that hasn't made a bad decision on a player. Overall, Fitterer is doing an amazing job and He is going to build a championship caliber team. When you add talent through the draft like we have these last two drafts (2020 was more Rhule than Hurney) you have alot of super talent under rookie contracts. This gives us more money to fill those spots we need now through free agency. I also like that he and Rhule seem to have a good level of communication. Something I don't think our GM has ever had with the HC.

After the Indy game, Rhule said ,when asked about Hoskin, that he had a long way to go. So despite his success against 2nd and 3rd team offenses. He has a way to go to be ready to face 1st teamers.

We're only 5 days from having to be down to our final 53. I am going to guess we'll keep 50 or 51 of the current 80. With the trade of Perryman our depth at LB spot just got razor thin and I wouldn't be surprised if we sign one or two from team cuts. I also think that, depending on who is available, we'll sign a LT. IMO it will be an aging vet that we might get some use out of until someone is ready to take over the LT spot permanently. I think of the 11 draft picks. Fletcher and Hoskins are destine for the PS. There is no way Smith or Nixon stick on the PS. Some team will nab them.
