Preseason Week 1: Pats vs Eagles Gamethread

[JDM]

Ridley, Blount, and vereen all get touches. Blount and vereen's roles don't really overlap.

 

[Southieinnc]

Am I the only one who thinks that Blount is Ridleys backup and Veeren's role does not change. Third down back, who comes in with Ridley/Blount and sets up at WR?

I don't think we keep him as backup. Change of pace or not at all.

Agreed

Wait, what? Whether he gets a lot of touches or Ridley steals the bulk of them there's not much reason for him to not make the team.

Nfln hating on tebow.. Too funny.. Those guys are fuckin shmucks..

 

[JDM]

He was bad in admittedly limited action so far.

 

[dblakejr7]

Agreed.. I just don't like sapp and Irvin..

I agree they all get touches, but if Ridley went down, I see Blount taking his role.

I agree, we keep him but not as a backup.

Without a doubt.

 

[briz almighty]

its tebow or bust this game

 

[JDM]

He could very well get himself cut tonight.

 

[briz almighty]

thats what tebow does good

 

[JDM]

Awful read.

 

[Southieinnc]

No way Tebow gets cut before the end of preseason. He is needed to backup Mallett or we play Brady too much...

 

[briz almighty]

at least he can throw a perfect screen pass

 

[JDM]

He's really athletic. He has a spot for sure.

 

[briz almighty]

blount is the best back on the team

He plays out the preseason but Mallett gets a lot of action.

 

[Southieinnc]

Blount looking good.....
