Preseason 3: Pats/Titans

[Time to Mo Vaughn]

Game is tonight at 8:15 ET. Mac Jones is not going to be playing tonight.

Just to start a controversy, it's because Belichick is going with his starters and Mac is going to be the big surprise cut. Cunningham will be the #2.

 

[Jinhocho]

I do not think that has a chance of even starting a controversy, but it strikes me as weird that Mac has played so little. He has a lot to prove this year and hasnt been on the field much in these games.

 

[Gash Prex]

Is Mac playing or not? All the pre-game info was no...but he's in uniform and warming up

edit: and Zappe starts

Zappe is starting.

 

[BrazilianSoxFan]

Any chance this may be about giving Zappe first team reps to see if he is worth of a roster spot?

Who else would be the backup?

 

[Vandalman]

Another JV bowl.

 

[Gash Prex]

Pretty bad looking throw by Zappe

Watching on NFL network, these Titan announcers are very pumped about that 3 and out with the starting defense

 

[staz]

Isn’t Mac killing it in practice? This might be BB preventing other teams building a film library? /wishcast

 

[RoDaddy]

Interesting to see Sow at RT and Reiff at RG. Looks like Sow is definitely getting a shot to stick there

And the Pats are having their way with the Titans starting O-Line. Which is really good to see

 

[Vandalman]

Doink!

 

[ifmanis5]

Oh Zappe, no bueno.

 

[katnado]

Jesus Zappe

 

[BrazilianSoxFan]

For those that complain about Mac's lack of awareness...

That was a terrible play in so many ways.

 

[Gash Prex]

Zappe did a fine job getting out of initial pressure - then just shit his pants

 

[Justthetippett]

Zappe playing himself into the USFL; he's missing the Matty P offense.

might just be missing a semi-viable o line

Nobody is missing that, except maybe our opponents.

 

[tims4wins]

Feels like Sow gets beat every play

 

[Mugsy's Jock]

This OL is such trash

 

[BrazilianSoxFan]

Things aren't looking good.

 

[shawnrbu]

This offensive line is something.

 

[tims4wins]

He had time there. Didn’t want to unload.

 

[EddieYost]

Zappe kind of sucks.

 

[RoDaddy]

We want Cunningham

 

[katnado]

Zappe sucks and that O-Line is atrocious.

 

[ifmanis5]

LOL at BB: "That's bullshit, that's fucking bullshit" to the ref.

 

[Over Guapo Grande]

BDL

 

[katnado]

Munson doing his best to stick, nice grab

 

[tims4wins]

BDL

 

[Zedia]

“Oh, that’s a catch!”

 

[staz]

Jules II

 

[Mugsy's Jock]

Zappe‘s body language kind of looks for shit too.

edit: though if I had that OL, I imagine I’d have the same “resigned that this all sucks” expression too.

 

[Helmet Head]

LOL at BB: "That's bullshit, that's fucking bullshit" to the ref.

I know they intercepted on the next play but how was that not overturned? I don’t get it

 

[Mugsy's Jock]

Reiff hurt — right knee

edit: walking off vigorously, hope he’s okay

 

[Section15Box113]

This OL is such trash

And it gets worse.

Kyed: Yikes. Patriots RG Riley Reiff got his right knee rolled up. Walking off under his own power, but Pats can't afford another OL injury.

To be fair, it was Zappe and the 3rd team scrubs against the Titans starting defense. Things a tad different once the starters off the field.

 

[Justthetippett]

What bad Oline? Road graders!

 

[Vandalman]

According to the OL projections, Bill Murray will not earn his Stripes

 

[Remagellan]

I'm watching this on the NFL Network and it's the home team feed, so they are showing a lot of the proposed new stadium for the Titans. I'd rather the focus was on the action on the field.

 

[Mugsy's Jock]

Perkins and Jack Jones look pretty thrilled with themselves after giving up a reception for a first down conversion.

This ballwashing is a bit much.

 

[Remagellan]

This ballwashing is a bit much.

You'd think it was the Taj Mahal of football.

 

[Seels]

I don't really get the point of playing McSorley.

 

[katnado]

Glad we get the Patriots broadcast here in Alaska where they're actually talking about the game

 

[Gash Prex]

seriously - let us enjoy the Cunningham show -
Might be a while before we see it again

Just a 69 yard punt by Barringer

 

[Remagellan]

They just missed the third down sack of McSorley because they had a graphic up of two rookie Titans defenders.

 

[tims4wins]

NFL preseason has gotten so weird with regard to play time.
