Preseason Games Thread - Observations and commentary from the FBG Shark Pool (1 Viewer)

If Foles is bad but still better than Bortles I see more of a game management offense which will be built around Fournette till he breaks. If Foles starts lighting it up, which I wouldn't bet on, but isn't out of the question then the offense takes off as a whole. 

Big take away for me. Fournette is a league winner where he's getting drafted if he stays healthy either way.

Josh McCown has led the Eagles to 15 consecutive points. It's 26-15.

Doug Pederson might have McCown on his preseason fantasy football team -

McCown is 17 of 24 for 192 yards, 2 TDs.

Seeing a lot of the 40-yr old tonight.

 
Hoo boy, Reed ruled out with a possible concussion. 

Ive been seeing a lot of folks touting him as a potential bargain this year, but this should cool that talk off.

this dude is starting to worry me - you’ve only got one brain, and his bell’s been rung more than several churches.

Now he is NOT on my list of "last ditch tight ends" this year, in fact I just sent that to a buddy of mine in text.

Time to retire for Jordan Reed.  He is going to end up a vegetable at this rate, and he might  be destined for that already.

 Kind of sad to hear really..........

Unfortunately agree. Worry for left ankle fracture and/or dislocation. Likelihood of IR, question is if he might get lucky and make it back.

I was one of those touting him. Yeah, forget it. Seems like he’s just not meant to play this game.

is fine and doing well. Thank you to everyone for their prayers and concern.

 
Second-year back Derrius Guice did a good job in his first action after missing last year with the torn ACL. He gained 44 yards on 11 carries, showing good patience and burst. He was able to gain six yards on one run when none were available. However, Guice was unable to gain more than a half yard on two runs from the 1-yard line. It wasn't all on him, but he'll have to move the pile down there, too. In fairness, he did get in on third down but a holding penalty nullified the score. Still, it was an excellent first showing for the second-year back; the Redskins should be happy. They wanted him to knock off some rust and develop confidence in his knee.

Haskins mental makeup is so good. He has no fear. He just keeps going. He just keeps taking shots downfield. He's never scared. I love that. It's not enough, but it's a hell of a start.

Gruden said Jordan Reed is in the concussion protocol. That almost always means a concussion occurred.

Sad end for an incredible generational type  talent. They can’t let him ever play again. 7th documented concussion. 

 
Jimmy Kempski @JimmyKempski

J.J. Arcega-Whiteside now has 8 catches for 104 yards and a TD.
Too bad this kid is stuck behind Agholor and Jackson. May be awhile until we see what he can do with a lot of snaps.

In any event, the Eagles offense is looking  very potent.

Agholor is a UFA after this year and was reportedly on the trade block. For dynasty, JJs time should be next year.

He's been fun to watch when healthy (not for a few years), but I think you're overselling his talent here. Generational? 

You're alsp overselling the threat to his career here. He hasn't had a concussion since 2016, the last time people said he should retire. Just like they said about Amendola at one point. It may not be smart but these guys keep playing when they can pass the protocol. 

 
Why no McLaurin in the Washington game?
He drew a PI in the endzone that set up a goal line TD from Guice that was called back due to holding. 

The real answer is that Keenum is a dump off king and McLaurin didn't play with Haskins in the 2nd half. He's getting the starter treatment. 

 
 Matt LaFleur looked like a constipated Eddie Munster after the Raiders kicked that FG.

The camera panned to him and he had this odd "don't look at me" look on his face.

Josh Rosen is turning into a nice story. He’s been competent, and even a little better than competent against 2nd & 3rd stringers, but after the journey he’s had, that’s good to see.

couldn't have found a better mentor than FitzMagic. 

I’m rooting for the kid. 

 
I'm not clicking on any of these links but would like to see just a little Sutton and see if there is any real competition for Atlanta's 2nd RB. 
Word has been that Ollison could be the short yardage back & Hill has run circles around Ito (who’s looked slow and without vision) 

my guess would be a depth chart of Freeman/Ollison & possibly Hill as the 3rd down/COP. 

:shrug:

Yeah I've been moving Hill up my board and would choose him for my cuff for Freeman if I end up taking him somewhere.

He has a really good arm and can throw on the run as he showed tonight on a laser 30 yard completion. The verdict is still out on his touch passes and ability to see the field and make the right decisions.

Also he runs like he’s got a load in his pants. 

 
Trace McSorley looks like he has the moxie and accuracy to play in this league.

Darius Slayton looks like a rising star.

Daniel Jones is way better than most people (myself included) thought he was.

There are a lot of good young pass catching TEs in the league.

What was your impression of Rodney Anderson?  I do believe I continued to notice several things via highlights   Love to know what happened on the running plays  So anyway first thing id note is the hands extended for a pass  Not saying he "looks like a WR"  He just appears competent and comfortable   Once the ball is in his hands it's like an extended run play   Obvious goal being the EZ   Ability to get his pads low   Nearly full speed using a hand to the ground to retain his balance  Sorta reminds me of a cross between say P. Lindsay and perhaps P. Harvin   Lotta backs have "vision" and "wiggle"  He seems to have enough of all the characteristics and even more so at some which make for a legit 3 down back
