With the new preseason schedule, it's odd how teams are treating the 1st game like they used to treat the 4th game. I would've thought we would see them approach it like the old 2nd, 3rd, and 4th games in that order.

I'm guessing now that we're going to see the new preseason schedule treated like the old 4th, 3rd, and 1st games in that order. I didn't expect that.

Isn’t the first cut down on Tuesday? If so, this makes sense.

and a bunch of rookies and guys you never heard of or who have not play anything but special teams in years if ever.  Their DT are about the same.

That pretty much describes our team.

I think everyone here is overestimating the abilities of our D-line, and LB Corp. 

We have some good starters on the D-line, but not much depth. Particularly in the interior.

LBs are looking rough. 

The first few games will tell us how well our run defense is. I think it is going to be average.

O line is an obvious problem.

So is QB.

7-8 wins sounds about right.

TBH, this is the least news and information we have ever gotten from a training camp.  Idk if it's Rhule, but there's never been such little information coming out of camp since the Huddle has been around that I can recall.  TC threads day to day would be 10 pages minimum.  Combine that with the underwhelming Fan Fest, fans being kept at a distance at TC, and I have to guess Rhule is wanting to limit what is being reported.

From what I hear it had more to do with the Panthers PR dept wanting to be the sole source of news.

All well and good, but they need to actually product content if they’re going to do that.

It seems like Voth and team have just been tweeting a handful of times per practice. They all seem to tweet roughly the same thing too.

Getting a bit more excited about the oline and this team overall.   Still thinking wildcard. 10/11 wins

The LB Corp is still a problem. Teams might be able to run on us.

Eh...that was pass pro drill. Williams kept him away from the QB. That’s why everyone cheered, Donald look frustrated, and why the coach gave Williams a pat on the back at the end.

Damn that's a career regression. 

Didn’t he have a bout with cancer after leaving the panthers?

He’s on this board. Forgot his username.

Play him as long as the starting OL is in there.

FYI...there are currently 10 criminal complaints against Watson.

8 of those women are also suing him.

Sounded like the Eagles had it in the works before the latest news came out, but now that's been shot down too.

Still think that's where he likely ends up...if he ends up anywhere. But with his own lawyers talking about indictments, doesn't sound good.

Based on recent comments from Buzbee, it sounds like some of the women want an admission from him as part of a settlement. Doesn’t sound like he’s going to do that so I expect this will go to trial.

It's legal, what was done to Watson, but it bull**** and we all know it.

Rich guys do stuff like that to people/each other.

It's legal but it's not right. Especially when Jerry Richardson is shamed and Kraft keeps his franchise.

I don't care about all that. This was about revenge/manipulation we all know it.

I don’t know that.

You don’t either. You just have feelings based on limited information.

We’ll see what happens.

The current trajectory of this franchise dictates our being first in line.

Tepper has done absolutely nothing to put butts in seats.

Watson is a franchise QB. Not debatable.

We've had one of those. We all know what one does for the trajectory of your franchise.

We've seen it. That's why some of us were kicking and screaming (and got banned on this here site)when they footed Cam in the ars, signed TB?!?(garbage move) instead of playing Grier and having perhaps a high enough pick to have picked Justin Herbert (Hurndog was one of the few GMs to fly out to Oregon).

Instead we traded for Sam Darnold, passed on Fields and are currently looking over the fence at Watson.

None of that timeline makes any sense. Signing Watson, although the controversy, does make sense.

Stop the madness!

Watson isn’t set to be deposed in the civil cases until late Feb.

There could very easily be multiple civil trials AND a criminal trial in his future next year.

Teams are not going to trade for him this year.

"Talks are heating up between Eagles and Texans on a Deshaun Watson trade," per

@ChrisTrapasso

.

per NBC sports..
 

Contrary to a report that trade talks between the Eagles and Texans regarding a potential Watson deal are “heating up,” a source with knowledge of the situation tells PFT that they are not.

The problem at this point is the looming possibility of prosecution. As previously mentioned, Watson’s camp believes that the evidence against him inevitably will be presented to a grand jury. If he’s indicted on felony charges, the NFL undoubtedly will place him on paid leave until the case is resolved. Until then, it’s possible he’ll be convicted and then incarcerated.

“Teams have to wait to make sure jail isn’t a possibility,” one source explained.

Multiple scuffles.  Defense is getting frustrated.  This defense is a top 10 defense.  When our offense can move the ball against consistently against this defense...oh baby...

This is NOT a top 10 D. Our LBs suck and our only good corner is a rookie.

We’re on the way up though.

Caserio comes from the Patriot school of things though. He may not give in easily.

Ditto with McNair and his ego if he wants to be seen as "winning".

Watson dragged that org through the mud for months before dunking it in a tank of poo with his legal issues.

Why would they still want him?

The only ‘winning’ options left is to move on ASAP and put this crap behind them. 

 

2 minutes ago, Mr. Scot said:

The question then becomes whether the Texans will accept that kind of offer.

As one reporter put it, their logic is that if you get Watson, you have the opportunity to keep him for the next ten years or so. Given that, why should they accept lesser compensation?

Truthfully, seeing what the Eagles are about to lose on the Wentz trade probably doesn't encourage them in that direction either.

At some point they’ll have to make a deal or keep him.

The bridge has been burned to the ground, so they have to let him go. Teams know this. The Texans arent going to get what they want for him.

Is it possible to do a trade that is dependent on legal/civil action? Like we will give you a first for him but if he ends up going to jail or missing time over these allegations we get our picks back? I’ve never heard of anything like that but it could be a nice low risk way of doing it. 

Yep, happens all the time.

The eagles will end up getting a 2nd round pick because Wentz got hurt and will miss significant playing time.

Any deal for Watson will include contingency picks. The more time he misses, the lower the compensation.

Damn I get tired of hearing/seeing Jackson get roasted. He just reminds me of Shaq just never going to get it.

Same. I only hear Jackson’s name when he’s being torched. 

Rhule is in charge, and I just can’t see him wanting Watson and his baggage.

If Fields is a star and Darnold bombs this board is going to be a f*cking train wreck this season

And deservedly so.

I really wanted him.

Horn is going to get a lot more playing time.

Rhule won’t make it very long in the NFL. It’s a big boys league. Some guys aren’t made to play or coach in the NFL. 

Wait, that was Rhule who got pancaked?

Didnt know he played for the Chiefs last year.
