NGL though, figured it wasn't worth a thread of its own so I'll just post it here, but I will be keeping a close eye on Richardson. He is who I decided I wanted in the last weeks leading up to the draft, with the reasoning being, if his processing was close to Bryce's, which reportedly it was, he could figure out the accuracy and consistency stuff over time, but his athleticism and playmaker ability would carry him during that time... and in a big way. Even as he was figuring out the passing aspect, he could break games wide open with his running ability. I expect he will. I know he threw a pick but he bounced back and looked really good afterwards. I see a lot of Cam in him. So it was what worried me about Bryce over him... While Bryce is great at his strengths, and I see the Brees' comparisons are very apt (except Bryce is much more mobile), AR can win games even if he can't pass to perfection. AR doesn't and won't have to rely on others to be productive and change games in the Colts' favor. Bryce's game is almost entirely dependent on others to be productive, and as we saw yesterday, the OL sucked and we couldn't get any offense going. Again, I trust Reich and McCown's decision. I have no choice but to. But man, that concern has been there for me since the draft. I'm going to continue to believe and hope for the best... also, this post is not about yesterday, just a lingering concern that has always been there.

Yes. Now.

Also, didn't see who we started at RG, but I saw McCray in on the second drive. I think when they showed the highlights where Bryce got hit late, it looked like Jordan was the guy who started. Wtf happened to Cade Mays running with the 1s?

The even more concerning thing to me about that early stunt working was that I happened on Ickey and BC. I'd expect that kind of free pressure from the right side with Corbett being out, but damn... Ickey got his ass whooped tonight.

I'm not concerned. It's disappointing and a let down for sure, but the Pats typically always suck ass in the preseason and it has no bearing on their regular season performance. If we believe in this staff like we claim we do, we view them as strategists, like Belichick and his staff, so I'm not stressing. But this showing was damn near inexcusable.

I miss him... https://www.instagram.com/reel/Cv2qj1Xp23W/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

Good. He can go pleasure himself in those vast cornfields he's imprisoned by.

If you had a 27-0 blowout at home for the preseason opener on your 2023 panthers bingo card... well... fug you.

Even though you've told on yourself, it isn't a bad idea to pound one out to relieve the stress of the debacle we just witnessed.

We called timeouts to allow them to set up a better play. What sportsmanship!

Please! Just! End it! Go ahead! Do it! Finish us!

Damn. Zero resistance.

Just let him have the TD, damn. 3rd and 14 and we just escorted him to the first down on a screen lol.

Dude just hurdled a tackler with another tackler on his back.

Corral honestly has looked good. The OL and playcalls are complete ass.

Bro, The Ghost Of McAdoodoo Past still runs the halls of BOA. WTF kind of playcall was that???

Can't recall a more bummer of a preseason game ever lol. Again, we have plenty of time and all, and preseason doesn't mean much ultimately, but this is complete and utter ASS. Like we have shown NOTHING to be encouraged about. The OL is supposed to be the deepest, most talented unit we've had in prolly a decade, and does not require gameplanning to be functional and they've gotten their ass handed to them the whole game. The defense has been gashed, which is a little more easily explained with the scheme switch and all, but ooowee mayne, this poo is ugly.

Also, FWIW, Corral looked 100x better on that drive than he did at all last preseason. That first pass was great pocket awareness and manipulation. OL sucks ass still though.

Somebody run up to the booth and see if McAdoodoo is still in there. Damn bro...

Yeah, this is horrible from the offense. Not encouraging at all. I know it's preseason and there's plenty of time but yeeesh.

Annnnnnnd right on cue. Good grief. Did not expect this.

Our OL is getting their asses whooped.

Im telling yall, I been saying it since last season... Barno is for real. He showed it more towards the end of last season when he got playing time, but you just saw it again there... the dude is likely gonna end up taking YGM's spot this season snd I think will end up being a huge steal for where we drafted him.

Welp. Offense looks fairly underwhelming early.
