Is it still the starters?

I just tuned in and saw the td pass from Fields to Herbert. If he is a smidge slower he gets nailed here by two defenders. Then once Herbert catches the pass he has one of his offensive lineman out of bounds, another on the ground and EQS at WR is just running behind a secondary player with his hand on his back. I know its preseason but this was rough to watch despite it turning out well. 1739531609_Screenshot2023-08-12at2_18_16PM.thumb.png.4d86ddf1e8f06cdcb92006b1734531f2.png

Richardson with a nice run around the edge on a zone read that's coming back due to a hold.

It sounds like he’s going to be carrying that team if JT doesn’t come back. Even then, he will still have a lot to accomplish. I’m rooting for the dude.

Yeah they don’t have many weapons. Hopefully Downs can turn into a nice slot WR for him.

The announcers in the Bears game were saying how it's so good that Vrabel stepped aside for this game to allow one of the assistants to be HC for the game and how the minority coaches needed such opportunities so people would consider them for HC jobs. They even said temp HC has 26 years of coaching experience between the NFL and college. Yet Vrabel got an HC gig with just a few years of coaching under his belt and they act like that is fine.

Minshew looking GOOD. Unless AR develops really quickly Minshew should be the week one starter.

Plus, he's the type of QB my boy Josh Downs can do some real damage with.

Love Minshew. Wish we had him here as the backup in case our rookie gets dinged up. I trust him over Dalton and Minshew got a nothing contract.

It’s preseason.  Mine hew was garbage as a starter for Philly last year 

I wouldn't hold spot starting against him. He has a couple NFL season under his belt working in trash environments where he did great, better than anyone we have trotted out at QB since prime Cam.

    • Yes, he's a tier above them, but you also touched on the money side of it.  With T-Mac locked in as our #1 on a rookie contract for a few more years, I'd much rather use that money that would be needed for DJ on our defense and develop Coker into our #2.   Especially given his contract situation as an UDFA, as his contract is up at the end of this year but we can keep him around for a 3rd team controlled year on the real cheap.  Which means we probably could get him to sign a very reasonable extension this offseason to give him a little more money while giving us a bargain contract for what he provides. DJ's contract is north of $20 million for the next 5 years, why pay that for your #2 WR with the needs we have on defense and you have guys like Coker, XL, and Horn on rookie contracts who very well could combine to be a serviceable 2-4 WRs behind a stud in T-mac? I love DJ and he'd be a great fit on this team as our #2, but the money side of it just makes absolutely zero sense, that's all it comes down to for me on this one. And no, I don't see the Bears wanting XL back in that trade, because they drafted Burden, who is essentially a better version of what XL provides, a player you want to get the ball into their hands and let them go to work.
    • I didnt see that many bad calls in the panthers cowboys game, but the chiefs especially in the playoffs were getting every single call they could get then the refs when it didnt matter would throw a call towards the other teams.  That I believe was the taylor swift effect.   But its crazy just thinking about how easy it is to change a game.  You dont need but a single ref to make a few close calls go towards one team over the other and in the nfl that is the game.  
    • I don't think it's unrealistically blaming Bryce Young......to say has been a reason, sometimes a big one, in why our pass offense overall has been extremely week over the past 3 collective seasons.  I think that bothering anyone, is just being overly invested in some Bryce Young argument.  It's just a reality.
