FWIW UDRFA Austin Carr did have a nice TD grab.

I really liked him and thought he deserved to get drafted.

Me too, but I have to wonder if he will get a spot other than ST we are WR heavy.

Yeah his choice to go to the Pats is a bit of a head scratcher. Barring injuries there is not much of a chance that he actually makes the team. Most likely will have to wait on the practice squad for a year or two if he wants to get a chance with the Pats.

Agreed

I understand this is a pretty talented group of evaluators in this room, but in all honesty, our evaluations come more in training camp when we actually practice and can fully execute the techniques and the plays that we’re trying to do.

Bill Belichick not fan of media evaluations on first day of training camp

He has a point. Media/fans only get a small picture of what is actually happening on a play. For the most part people only see "was the pass completed?" For the coaches/players they are noticing who ran the right route on the play, did the QB check into a better play, technique on the actual play, and so on. There could be a play where a QB throws an interception and it is a better play in the coaches eyes than a TD pass because they did everything else right on the play compared to a broken play that goes deep for a TD and doesn't really give them much to evaluate.

Belichick isn't a fan of orgasms. The dude does cold to well for it not to be a genuine part of his personality.

 

[Yankee Traveler]

Or poor decision making?

It was a positive spin with dash of sarcasm.

I'm sure nit was both bad QB decision and decent CB play.

Rumor has it that player's are lobbying for Jimmy G to start. Apparently Brady doesn't have it anymore and it's starting to show....many think had he started as a Rookie we would have 3 SB, not 2.....just sayin....

Funny. Link please.....

I'm the link....LOL..........just having some fun...I mean wtf are we gonna complain about...Team is stacked!

I'm tellin ya, this offense is going to make this defense so much better. Then this offense is going to stomp teams out. I cannot remember a quicker team from top to bottom in terms of skill position. I saw some film and the DB were getting torched by the speed of the WR.

Lots of talk about Moore, a UDFA CB, looking like the next MB. Coleman IMO is out of job right now. Both Jones have looked impressive. Apparently VV has looked much faster and stronger this camp. He has been tearing it up in the running drills. DMC and the other Vets are amazed about how much Richards has improved and gotten faster. A reporter was talking about how Gronk was killing him last yr, but not this yr. Richards has held his own vs Gronk even deflecting passes. I mean shit...if this kids pulls it together, that would be huge.

I think I'm one of the few here that still has hope for Richards
Coleman back to his old tricks of not looking back to the ball......

exactly and it's not like the media wants to make everyone look good. Especially the Boston Media...

Oh every media person has their bias. It has been fun watching the media go crazy about the QB battle in Denver. One media person will say that Paxton threaded a pass 50 yards down the field between 2 defenders. The next will say that he threw up a hail mary in the hopes his WR would come down with it in double coverage. Saw a pass yesterday that Siemian threw where the WR was running a very clear post route to the corner of the end zone and had to turn his body completely in the opposite direction, tripped over his own feet trying to turn around, somehow caught the football on a miracle grab and the media were saying "Siemian just threw a beautiful 40 yard pass". Most of the media are big time Siemian homers because he is really nice to the media. Have guys inside the Bronco facility though that say he has been trash all training camp and Paxton is running away with the thing.

Yeah you are correct it really does matter who actually the reporter is. It is so freaking annoying too. But Boston media just seems like they like to stir up controversy more than any other city.. Hell, they won't shut up about David Price

What cracks me up is when anybody calls them out on their bias they deny it big time. It is like the biggest insult in the world. We are all human and all have certain bias'. I'm not sure why they fight that so much.

And Boston I think it is mostly they just say things much louder. Such a difference listening to Boston radio compared to Midwest radio. Have to turn down the volume every time.
