Mahomes throwing 40+ TDs again. 

I know right.....hard to pass up in the first round for sure

 

[SaintsInDome2006]

Are the Jetses still playing their starters?

 

[Interseptopus]

Here is the Miller injury

thanks

Is that @BoltNlava?

 

[Interseptopus]

Sammy Watkins running / looking better than he’s looked in years. He might have a monster season for his ADP. 

until he hurts his foot

3m

Damien Williams was slow to get up on the last play, was with trainers on the sideline, now he's in the pop-up tent. Darwin Thompson in the backfield.

That looked worse on the replay from behind 

Knee bent sideways 

 

[Interseptopus]

I'd be surprised if he wasnt done

 

[Cowboysfan8]

Me too

Sucks 

 

[Iceman03]

Here is the Breida TD: https://twitter.com/49ers/status/1165422455105576962?s=21

How is this guy still a 9th round pick?

Gruesome 🤮 

 

[Cowboysfan8]

View from behind

[JoeSteeler]

🤷‍♂️

Lol yeah technical difficulties stand by

 

[Osaurus]

Nice to see Bridgewater throwing darts out there

 

[JoeSteeler]

🤷‍♂️

16 second mark...

[Cowboysfan8]

Lol yeah technical difficulties stand by

Oh sorry lol

Yeah, I’m not watching it again 🙁

 

[Cowboysfan8]

Taco down for a bit after what looked to me like a hyperextended knee

Limped off

:eta: back in

 

[Penguin]

Here is the Breida TD: https://twitter.com/49ers/status/1165422455105576962?s=21

Yeah crazy, I got him in a startup at 8.11 this afternoon

 

[Cowboysfan8]

Cooper Rush actually looks pretty good

Taco is down again. Leave him in there all night Garrett you dolt

 

[Payne]

I have an auction tomorrow and a snake Monday night. I feel like I have no idea which direction to go this year. After the top 3-4 RB's everything seems flexible. 

Houston doesn't look good. Oline is bad.

Arizona and DJ look bad

Who knows with Bell and the Jets and Gase

Zeke??

Adams one hit to the head away from retirement

Bengals Oline not good

Chubb has Hunt

KC backfield a question

Gurley knee

Love Cook but can he stay healthy

 

[BoltNlava]

thanks

Is that @BoltNlava?

No...

 

[TheWinz]

Moncrief with a few early targets - pulling away from James Washington for the 2 spot?

 

[JaxBill]

This SkyCam on NBC is sub optimal.

This SkyCam on NBC is sub optimal.

I kinda like it

 

[TheWinz]

Conner looking good avoiding tackles

 

[JaxBill]

@TDavenport_NFL: Ryan Shazier with the #Steelers LBs during pregame warmups. Pretty cool they have him involved. The thing players always say they miss the most is being with the guys. https://twitter.com/TDavenport_NFL/status/1165769241506852866/video/1

 

[JaxBill]

I kinda like it

I think it's a plot to sell more 85 inch TVs. Hard to see detail especially on far sideline 

 

[TheWinz]

Not a bad drive vs a decent TEN D - TD Juju

 

[Steel Curtainrod]

Moncrief with a few early targets - pulling away from James Washington for the 2 spot?

Maybe not. 

 

[TheWinz]

Maybe not. 

well, hello, Mr Washington!

 

[TheWinz]

TEN punter has a helluva leg - 70 yd average and 1 called back that went 80

 

[irish eyes]

The camera angle for tonight's game is dreadful.

PFF 2019 NFL Preseason Week 4 Preview: Players to watch in all 16 games

 

[trader jake]

This SkyCam on NBC is sub optimal.

The camera angle for tonight's game is dreadful.

Best camera angle is the slightly elevated shot from behind the offense (aka Madden or all-22 view).  You can see the line splits, holes as RBs do, watch the secondary and routes develop, and what the QB sees as all of it unfolds.  Instead we've gotten some lame sideview with a handful of players off screen for 99% of our lives.  It's embarrassing.  Then again, coaches still punt from the opposition 38 and run the ball a lot on 2nd & 10...so I just keep waiting for the entire sport to evolve a bit I guess.

Not a shot but...

It is way more than enough for me. Sitting on a couch and eating/drinking what I want when I want at prices that suit me...works for me. No complaints. Not one!  You have a point but...in the end, who cares? The sport will evolve when the money paves the way. 

P.S. - coaches do things for a reason. It's not JUST to piss us off. lol

 

[renesauz]

Thinking Ty Montgomery might be worth more then end of the bench roster fodder.

 

[ConnSKINS26]

This is not true at all...unless the reason you're referring to is that a lot of NFL coaches are hired and promoted due to nepotism and don't trust or understand basic math...in which case yes, coaches always do things (like punt from the opp 38 or run a lot on 2nd and 10) for a reason.

What to watch for in Thursday's preseason finales

 

[Anarchy99]

Edelman, Gordon, Thomas, and Harry all expected to play some tonight for NE.

 

[Dez]

Why the heck is Edelman in the game ? Just banged his injured hand.  Remember when Welker tore his ACL in a meaningless week 17 game.

 

[Ray Barboni]

Edelman, Gordon, Thomas, and Harry all expected to play some tonight for NE.

Why the heck is Edelman in the game ?

Weird stuff.

 

[Anarchy99]

Weird stuff.

Harry played one series and thise other NE guys haven’t played at all in the preseason games. 

 

[Ray Barboni]

Harry played one series and thise other NE guys haven’t played at all in the preseason games. 

So it’s safe to say it again? 

... weird stuff.

 

[ex-ghost]

Strange to see catches by Edelman, Gordon and Demaryius Thomas in the 4th preseason game.

Edit: and Golden Tate.

BB wants to see Stidham with the 1's.

 

[Biabreakable]

I don't think Vedvick is making the Vikings.

 

[mr roboto]

I don't think Vedvick is making the Vikings.

Why?

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Wait - there are actual starters playing, not total scrubs? 

Mind boggling.
