Pre Season Week 2 Thursday Games Thread

Recommended Posts

There's 3 different games all going on around the same time tonight , even though ours is not until tomorrow night. 

Eagles vs Patriots 7:30 , Jets vs Redskins 8:00 , Steelers and Packers 8:00 

Ill be watching Eagles and Patriots. Prime reason being we play the Patriots in week 3 of the pre season, and we play the Eagles in our 6th game of the regular season. 

I'm not really sure how seriously teams take pre season week 2, but I guess I'll find out.  Theres a few good matchups on Saturday too. 

Week 3 is mainly where its at.  A great headliner game with Browns vs Eagles on Thursday 8/23 , our game vs the Patriots Friday night,

Don't know about the Eagles but the Patriots tends to game plan as much or more than most people.  I remember last preason we were still installing our offense and New England was blitzing playing press coverage like it was midseason.

They said on the radio this morning Brady was going to play the entire first half so that's something.

Patriots defense has been murdering the eagles o line all game long

Wow Brady actually played 2 full quarters in game two of the pre season? 

Is he going to do the same against us? Because there's no way we will play cam for an entire 2 quarters..

    • First off, my memory is faulty and so I should remember you. Anyways, welcome back. Having been around here since 2004/2005, I do have to say all these hot takes are not necessary new. I still very much remember all the constant complaints about Jake Delhomme. How he was too inaccurate, fumbled the ball too often, threw bad interceptions, and how Steve Smith deserved a better QB. How this franchise needed to replace Jake for someone better because he dragged everyone down. We even had names for Jake defenders; Blind Delhomme Jock Sniffers (BDJS). That one thread about Chris Weinke over Jake Delhomme because Weinke threw for 423 Yards but only scoring 13 points remains the worst hot takes I've ever seen around here. So to me, it feels like history repeating itself again and I don't feel like getting that much involved in flame wars like I used to. I am more of a sit back and see what the players/team does type of person. And even then, yes, there are so many moving parts that it's not as easy to pinpoint the core issues, especially when you're not inside the building and know every single detail.  And yes, I think even way back then, I hated how overvalued the QB position was and it hasn't gotten much better. It's to where my philosophy has shifted to where if you can't win a SB with a QB on their rookie contract, you might as well get another one. Otherwise, you have to give that QB so much money that the rest of the roster suffers and your window becomes quite narrow.  That's why I'm skeptical that Mahomes/Burrow/Jackson/Allen will win more than one or two SB's between them. None of them look as invisible as they did a few years ago and that's because their targets are much inferior and/or they are getting more roughed up behind a worse O-line.
    • Haha I was still off was thinking of mac jones he has done extremely well this year with basically no weopons as all the 49ers are hurt except for mcaffrey but he is playing slow this year for some reason.
