  1. Pack it up, call tyrod the starter, rest everyone.
  2. Despite the sack, that's a hell of an opening drive from Tyrod.
  3. I think Tyrod offers a lot and I really like him, but I'm not expecting much after a mediocre week of practice. Let's hope he's a "gamer".
  4. +1 I can't believe they wrecked their classic look for these absurd new jerseys.
  5. Special teams is a driving factor behind this signing. Savvy pickup, hope he fills in well.
  6. I can't make up my mind if going against the browns on the short week hurts or favors Tyrod. Can't wait till the game. And I'm still excited by Cassel's repeated success. Whether he wins it outright or not I think we have a basic-level-of-adequacy QB. A ringing endorsement, I know.
  7. I'd like Tyrod to earn the job, but I'm not panicking about what will happen with gameplans etc. There are only so many players on the field and dedicating a spy or stacking the box will create open receivers. Either way, Cassel is turning in good performances in camp and the 1st preseason game. He might win the job outright, but he'll be a nice backup to have if we have to bring him in.
  8. He's been hitting those daily in camp, and did nothing to suggest he couldn't during that game, with a couple nice balls and reads. I know that's a small sample size, but still, it's not like that game was an indictment on his passing game in the slightest.
  9. Thanks for sorting that guys, I totally missed it during the live broadcast.
  10. I heard that a lot, and here's what I remember (from page 1): And what the OP saw on the replay of said play: Anyone have All-22? He may be open when he's offscreen but I didn't see it (or remember it) in the normal broadcast.
  11. Has he run in a way that suggests he doesn't avoid big hits? I'm legitimately asking not being snarky.
  12. Our QBs aren't pricey. Cassel is playing fairly well, and EJ has been up and down but turned in some good performances. I think it ends up TT, Cassel, EJ and we keep all three.
  13. Much appreciated. I'm glad you had the same opinion of the horse collar play. People kept saying he had gray open but I didn't think gray turned his head or body until after TT was past the LOS running. To me it looked like he was definitely looking to throw but no one was open or ready for a pass. But I don't have a way to replay the game, so I don't know if I am just misremembering this play or what.
  14. This is essentially the conversation we've been having since page 1. I think he throws better than many here believe, but none of us will know until he's in such a situation. However, I'm not going to discredit him for running when there were obvious running lanes or even called option plays. He has a good long ball, and I think if teams dedicate personal to containing his running game, that will open up intermediate routes as well. In a nutshell, just because he runs doesn't mean he can't throw. He's shown me enough in his practice performances (second hand, so who really knows) and last night that I think he's got real potential as a passer. I'm as excited about him in the same way I would be for a high draft pick. Or he just gets shut down when there is a spy on him, and I could eat my words. We just don't know yet.
  15. No cable unfortunately. I'd prefer not to get gamepass (I'd be a little more open to it if it were actually reliable - been hearing some troubling reports). I'd be open to another form of streaming, if anyone knows of one. #catchmydrift
  16. It appeared like the team really rallies behind him. I hope he does well next week against that D. Cassel did well too so I really think Tyrod needs to have a solid outing to be named starter after next week. My guess is this is what the coaches are praying for too so that they can be done with the competition and get as many reps in as possible.
