No issues here.

Those of you that aren't listening to Smitty on the local CBS broadcast are missing out.

Smitty is telling it like it is on CBS.

Yes, with his balls.

No, not that I saw.

Well brother I fear your expectations may be a bit premature. As far as I can tell they haven't gone all in on any qb yet.

I pulled some smoked pork shoulder I had left over fom the freezer for this occasion myself.

I damn well better be. But with Klimpsum fans dominating the viewing demands for Sunshine I fear I will have to see some Jacksonville games this season.

I'm tuning in from Asheville.

Let's hope so.

From what little information that gets out he was holding his own with the starters.

That's bit unreasonable to expect don't you think?

Why the hell is Ian Thomas sitting out? He should be among the first cuts.

YouTube TV.

He he's a better situation than all of the rookie qbs except for maybe Jones.

It's on CBS and NFL network in my area.

I think they did all that in practice against them. At least that is the impression I'm getting. This game and most of the next will feature the 2's and 3's in an attempt to get the depth right. I expect you will see the starters a bit in the next game. Assuming they make it through the practices with the Ravens.

They must be getting them in the joint practices against that teams ones. That's all I can think off.

Apparently it's a thing now. A lot of teams are doing it. Most are opting to do joint practices and hold the starters the first preseason game to compensate for not having 4 preseason games.

I agree with this. It seems they really want a vet at the helm right now. I'm still not sold they are all in on Darnold being the answer. I think at minimum they view him as a bridge for a few years that can keep them above 0.500 until they get whatever qb they looking for. If Darnold can be that then great. But the backup position needs a lot of work. Or I could be speaking out my ass because I've misread the whole situation.

The SB will be won or lost on the first series. You know this.

Dragon meat.

No the issue wasn't that it was too hard according to reports, it was that it was too much to expect in the early going last year by all accounts. If you noticed as the season went on they began to incorporate some blitz packages. This season expect things to be different in that regard. Other than that I do not have a clue what they are going to do this season.

You can only work with what you have. Do you really think they could have installed exotic blitzes with half the defense rookies and the other half 1 year starters? Good luck with that. That college defense kept the losses from being complete blowouts.

I don't know, it took McMann the crazy to get the 85 team that SB. Teddy is not Jim.
