Diva Cupcake posted:Nice. What did you think? The beat is gushing over Darnold and Cannon. It's hard to get that excited as a Jets fan but gently caress did Sam look good. He moves around REALLY well inside and outside the pocket and he made a few throws that should've been long TD's that were dropped (he was playing with the 3rd team)... He did have one fumble on a lack of pocket awareness play. McCown looked like McCown, we know who he is, and Teddy looked fine but didn't do anything that really popped to me. Cannon I didn't get a great look at since we got there late and left early. The first team skill players wern't supper impressive either...

https://twitter.com/mikerodak/status/1026479224637599744 Josh Allen getting treated like Gibran Hamdan or Tyler Thigpen the week of the first preseason game should probably be a bigger story. Either the coaching staff is incredibly moronic or Allen is really that loving bad.

He's apparently been fine or better in most of his drills, I'd imagine they just don't want to baptize him by fire when there's little potential benefit

The Ringer has a really good and well-researched article on the Wildcat and it's legacy in the NFL: https://www.theringer.com/nfl/2018/8/6/17654594/history-wildcat-miami-dolphins-ronnie-brown-chad-pennington-tony-sparano I don't think I'll ever laugh at a football game as much as I laughed at that game. Like I think I hurt myself laughing after Ronnie Brown threw a touchdown.

This is me feeling sorry for Josh Allen in Buffalo, who will hopefully be more sensible and save him till he's ready.

A lot of what Beane/McDermott have done leads me to believe they're willing to stay the course, but Pegula apparently has a habit of inserting himself into team affairs.

Ehud posted:https://twitter.com/buffalobills/status/1026574886494457857?s=21 What is this even supposed to MEAN? I'm pretty sure at this point quarterbacks have put the ball into every conceivably place it could be put. Is he trying to say that he has touch in addition to arm strength? Because I don't believe it. I think really what he's saying is basically "he has a very strong arm" twice in a row with different words e: The actual quote: “I noticed it when we first got here,” he said. “His arm is very strong. He takes a lot of risks. He’ll put it in different holes that I haven’t seen a lot, but because his arm is so strong it gets there.” So yeah. "Strong arm. Also: strong arm. Did I mention strong arm? Because that's a strong arm. Now let's talk about wind for a little bit" Play fucked around with this message at 23:44 on Aug 6, 2018 |

The secondaries ease up considerably afterwards. I still hate sitting rookies, but if the plan is to sacrifice the career of Peterman or McCarron in order to artificially create an incredibly low bar for Allen’s debut to clear, I would respect the Machiavellian genius of it.

Don’t talk poo poo about him or he’ll put a football right up there. And with a strong arm like that, it doesn’t matter how hard you clench. You can run, but he’ll hit you from 70 yards away. POW, right in the sphincter”

I thought Allen looked totally panicked on several plays and threw pretty inaccurately. Not a great showing but maybe not that bad either. It's kind of an interesting concept to see if they can have success with, a huge guy who can throw really hard to confuse and frustrate defenses and get the ball there fast. He's still got a long, long way to go imo but I'm more interested to see where it goes.

I always thought Allen's career trajectory was more likely to be Gabbert's than Hackenberg's. I don't really think you can conclude much one way or the other from last night except that 1. he is better than Hackenberg and 2. he has arm strength.

fsif posted:I always thought Allen's career trajectory was more likely to be Gabbert's than Hackenberg's. Basically, yeah. I thought it wasn't a great start, I mean 9 for 19 and several turnover-worthy plays isn't great. Some wild throws. His accuracy is still a long, long ways from where it needs to be. We did see last night why some people are excited about it but I'll believe it's possible for him to fix his accuracy when he actually does that.

He only really had two or three noticeably poor throws, and one of them was on 4th and goal trying to make a play out of nothing More so than accuracy I think his issue is decision making

Jonathan Fisk posted:He only really had two or three noticeably poor throws, and one of them was on 4th and goal trying to make a play out of nothing I think it's both right now, honestly. There were only a couple obvious turnover-worthy throws but I also got the sense that there was a lot of variation based on where he was aiming. On the touchdown throw that went low, I don't think at all that it was supposed to go that low. The receiver made a great adjustment to the ball but he was actually more open over the top than down there. And the more games he plays, the more those kind of throws will be intercepted. What he has shown is the theoretical ability to fit throws into tighter windows than anyone else, which would be a huge advantage if everything else develops consistently. So I think he's got a ways to go, but you're right in that his decision making is basically what we thought it is, he panics a bit when things go off schedule and that's a great place to start as far as improvement because it's all mental
