Exactly. Seems like there were a good bit of drops, but yes let’s freak out about a practice completion %age. Brought to you by the same people making irrational preseason week 1 conclusions

I like how irrational, is just pointing out that we run counter to the collective NFL.  

If every other team is playing there first round picks that are healthy and ready except for Matt Rhule and a rookie HC in Atlanta.....it doesn't seem irrational to point out that Horn likely should play.  I mean, the collective field would be the "experts", right?

So Dj, Robbie, and Marshall...are not that good???

I mean it's their fault, is that what you were trying to  say?

 

And to be clear, I'm not picking a fight, I'm simply defending the praise our Wrs were receiving all morning on Twitter...

Don't want any more warnings....

Everyone is still figuring out the 3 game stuff and how to properly handle it. I don't think anyone is in the right or wrong yet as next year everyone could do what the Panthers did, it'll get figured out. I mean I personally wouldn't put too much stock in a traditionally conservative minded league sticking to the old poo.

Cam only had 3 season’s with atleast 60% passing (and 2015 wasn’t even one of them)

Cam also averaged 7 rushing TDs and around 500 yards rushing per season for his career, I don't see Darnold doing that so he needs to be a better passer than Cam was.  

Cam also had one of the worst play callers in the league, terrible weapons and a crappy O-line.

At least Sam has weapons and a competent play caller.

Did you quote the right guy? I’m talking about the people saying the season is doomed bc darnold had a sub 60% day in practice.
 

If you want to talk about the starters getting 0 reps in week 1 I agree that was a dumb move. Hopefully that approach changes by Saturday

    • I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).
    • Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.
    • Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
