I hope he and Daniels play more than Maye did Thursday night. I know you're not wanting to give early opponents much film on guys to work off of but damn... getting first glimpses of rookie QBs is one of the very few intriguing things about preseason. Entertain me damn it! LOL

I thought the Patriots were going to cycle QBs like forward lines in hockey, because each drive it was like a different QB came out.  But Maye only got that one drive and then he's on the pine.  I guess they're trying to figure out if they want to keep Zappe or not.

Maybe trying to showcase him for trade bait? With Brissette there, Maye the #3 overall pick, and the promise that Milton has shown I don't think he has any chance at all of making the roster. Practice squad seems like his only hope in NE. If he's not gonna make your roster and someone is willing to throw you a late rounder, hey why not?

I just don't think they wanted to show much with Brissette and Maye. Seems like joint practices are basically replacing preseason games in terms of actually working on stuff. They're just showing up to these games because they're on the schedule and there's tickets to sell and TV contracts to fulfill.

Dolphins held out 40 players and still put up 20 points.

You can question the QB situation there but you can't deny the staff knows how to move the ball and get on the scoreboard. It's the complete opposite with us until proven otherwise. Thursday night was only validation of such.

Dolphins have a whiz kid playcaller.  He isn’t even good yet.    But it’s evidence how scheme and playcalling matter when you watch them.  Which is why the Dolphins have such an easy time with comparable or lower talent moving the ball.

No fuging way bryce can throw a ball like.  Placement, quick release and the velocity

Completion to Hurst against the Colts.

Not to say he does it as often as some fans would prefer or that he should, but he does have the ability to do so. Hopefully we'll see more of that this year with improved protection and weapons.

They are a good team with a much much better roster. We knew this. We knew it would take several years if everything goes seamlessly for the Panthers to be a good team with depth needed.

Why has everyone forgotten and now expects immediate results from this roster?

It does not take several years to establish an offense that can at least move the ball even halfway effectively lmao. Please stop thinking like Matt Rhule. The 7 years thing is long gone. Also the Commanders arguably had a worse OL than we did last year. And their head coach was Ron Rivera. It's okay to have expectations folks.

      Dave in a presser gassed up Anthony Tyus III and dying to see him on the field.  I mean 3 is all that needed right, and Dan loves etienne. He's one year filling in his body. If brooks is back, toss in chubba, thats 3.

      After seeing hits in the last two UDFA pools, I do not in this group sorta of a let down after I gassed myself up.  Not like I know of their games, but just expected more. The duke DT only has to beat out hunte (2025 UDFA) or Ray (DL coach's kid) or even Cam Jackson mid 2025 5th.  I thought they would bring in more edges, IOL, TEs, etc...

      The Icky knee didn't explode draft

      By MHS831 · Posted

      My 2 favorite picks, since you didn't ask? 3. Brazzell II.  A 1000 yard WR with 4.37 speed and checks all the boxes for a Z Wide Receiver.  IN THE THIRD ROUND!!! 5.  Sam Hecht.  I think he will take over as the starter at some point this season and never look back.  IN THE FIFTH ROUND. Runner Up:  2. Hunter:  We were targeting a DT early in this draft because we did very little to replace Robinson in free agency.  Hunter was our guy and he will start. In addition to that, you got a starting tackle that should man one side of the new OL we will build for Bryce's second contract. A starting WR, offensive lineman, defensive lineman and possible Offensive tackle (at some point during this year from this draft will start.  UNREAL. In addition, I don't doubt that Wheatley (5th round) takes the FS job by next year and Lee III is Jackson's replacement in 2027.   Finally, even Kuwatch should be a special teams demon and LB depth.   Last year's draft was so good it was ugly.  This one will turn out to be uglier.  No offense Basbear--this ain't about you.
