NGL, the announcers and crowd seem to be favoring Mac over Cam, and it seems like McDaniels is too.  One thing that really irritated me with McD last season was he seemed to call some old Wing T, Lateral-passes-only offense with Cam in last year, and then started calling pro-style offenses when Stidham and the other guy got in last season...  he appears to be doing the same so far this season.  

Multiple screens and runs on Cam's two drives...  seemed to run a ground and pound, run heavy style...  then Mac comes in and they ran one time so far and then had him chucking it down field every other play.

I don't like the way this is playing out.

Well Mac Jones is pretty much the typical game manager. He’s going to take the first read that’s there everytime. That’ll keep you from losing games and maybe that’s what Bill wants, but it damn sure won’t win you any. Defense was much different with Cam in the game as well going against their 1s, with our buddy Ron calling some blitzes.

I've been thinking this as well.  It just really irritates me that McD uses Cam like he's effing T3bow.

Why? He has shoulder issues that don’t seem to hold up long term. What’s the point of making him sling it in preseason. You also know what you have and they need to thorough test out Mac.

It was reported that Mac was awful in the beginning and is progressing quickly. Cam is going toe to toe with a rookie. It would surprise me quite a bit if Cam is their QB for the whole season.

Of course it is just practice and preseason, and that never says much about anything.

No he didn’t….fumble sack, threw a 4 ft screen pass behind his RB

 

I missed some of the game so I didn't see that. The drive I saw he was staying in the pocket, setting his feet, and throwing high velocity darts. I don't think he ever went deep though and his shoulder always gets worse as the season goes on.

There is a reason for that most likely.  I feel like they pretty much know his shoulder can't handle making many throws especially during the preseason it's not worth it.  He also just cant make as many of those deep throws any more.

      OFFICIAL 2026 Undrafted Free Agent Thread

      By strato · Posted

      Yep. I was hoping for and calling for a day three guy. But I didn’t research the position to say if we should or should‘t have jumped at a particular guy at a particular spot.    And everything I read said it was a poor draft for RBs depth wise. I guess when Seattle takes a backup RB in the 1st, that kind of backs that up.    I definitely think we should keep 4 running backs and if King can play well enough then keep him too.    I believe I heard Canales say we are a running team (talking about drafting a WR he will be needing to block as well as catch). Well if we are gonna be a running team by identity we don’t need to stock the WR room to overflowing. If one room has to sacrifice, it should not be the RB room given our circumstances.

      Dan had a great draft

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.
