Preseason Week 2: Pats vs. Bucs

[JDM]

No he's not. And his value as a backup is too high. Keep him for anything outside of the top half of the first round.

Nice play by Cole there... Not that tiquan underwood is a difficult matchup relative to nfl wrs

Ps i agree with JDM on mallett. Keep him as long as you can unless you get an outrageous trade offer, and you wont.

WOW sudfeld

and he's a great blocker.

 

[Drawmeomg]

and he's a great blocker.

Is he? Ive heard hes been a bit of a liability there

Edelman looks uncharacteristically tentative fielding punts tonight.

hes playing past 40 garanteed. mallett will not see the field for a minimum of 4 years. hes gone you need to get over it. the way he is playing this preseason he has increased his trade value, deffinitly a 1st or high 2nd

 

[JDM]

I'm not talking about long term. I am saying solely as a backup I keep him until his contract is up without a very good offer.

I haven't seen a a lot on the whole but on blount's 50-yarder last week he's the one who made the blocks down the field to get him into the end zone.

come on start throwing to the outside wrs enough of the te's and slot. we need to see how good they look

 

[Drawmeomg]

Mallett and Sudfeld looking really good. Kudos to mallett shaking off a rocky start. He has been effective since his second series.

dont matter to me, brady is the man here and will be until he retires. trade mallett anytime anywhere for the first 1st round pick you get

 

[JDM]

Mallett's starting to look solid.

Sudfeld just saved a pick though.

 

[JDM]

That was on both of them.

Thats not a guarantee you can make. He could sustain a career ending injury next game.

More importantly to the backup QB discussion, he could miss 4-6 games with a moderate injury during the season but be ready to go for the playoffs, in which case a good backup could literally mean the difference between a super bowl run and missing the playoffs. Backup QBs are as important as starters at half the positions, even though you hope they never see the field.

Logan Ryan and Duron Harmon blew it.

Exactly. Keep him every day you can.

brady dont go out with moderate injuries hes played throw bum shoulders, ankles you name it. the only thing that will get him off the field is a torn ligament or broken bone. its happened once in his 12 year career and now hes wearing a brace. not gunna worry about him getting injured. if cleveland calls tomorrow offering a 1st ill pack malletts bags for him personally.

 

[briz almighty]

logan ryan is really starting to piss me off. cant even cover tiquan underwood..

 

[TKO]

They would have needed a mercy rule if Brady played that whole half.

 

[TKO]

Sudfeld and Gronk will be causing nightmares

 

[briz almighty]

they change their red pirate flags and start waving white surreder flags lool
