The T-Mac one wasn't a drop at all, but the Sanders one was absolutely on Sanders.

Sanders was 100% a drop.  But I still think the fact this team has no YAC is in part ball placement by BY often.   BY should be that in front of him not on him.   TMac was an off target ball (which BY ran a super high % last year doing)

Smitty calls these games high as a kite

I used to enjoy his commentary because of his accent and his legacy as a player (I eventually forgave the Bright incident) but this year pretty much keeps me in Anti-89 Mode.

Oh no…I’m not able to watch, I’ve just been lurking on here. 

We basically hadn't done anything until Jack Plummer came in and the backups started to trickle out onto the field from the Texans.  The literal highlight from the starters, if you can even call it that, was Sanders dropping a dime that hit him in the hands for a first down.

Plummer telegraphing the pass.

That Andy Dalton right elbow injury sounds season ending

Sometimes it's because of the QB and sometimes it's because the receiver isn't getting separation and even an in-stride throw comes replete with an immediate hip tackle.

3rd string and beyond guys are lucky this game is only 7-0 (should it hold going into the half). It'll give them a chance to put on some better tape then if they had been forced into being one dimensional.

If the top qbs keep progressing as they should there should be quite of few good prospects this year.  

Yeah, I won't be surprising at all if Arch wouldn't even go #1 next year. A lot of people are putting a lot of stock into a last name and a tiny sample size of plays. MUCH more than former than the latter. If his last name was Smith he'd just be that guy who was a #1 overall QB recruit a few years ago who has been riding the pine behind a fringe NFL QB prospect for some reason.

You're lucky.

I’m so ready for football season I would love to watch it, even if they are ass. I’m also ready for fall weather, it’s time for summer to go play in traffic.

I smell a quick hitch for Tremayne.

The Lsu kid is a goddamn gunslinger that would be fun but Sellers, holy fug, I get he needs seasoning and accuracy but man that kid was built in a lab.

Drilled it.  Nice kick from Fitz.
