Like other members suggested they were pretty solid...when you watch the game I think you'll be just as impressed with the second group that came in...Bodine and Teller were studs...on a sour note,the 3rd string group was a mess for the most part. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SouthNYfan Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 1 hour ago, whatdrought said: It's usually dumb luck. Wentz showed us last year (like Favre did his entire career) that it can happen on purpose if you have the talent. I think Allen knew what he was doing. Romo made a career of it too, a pretty solid one at that. People should watch the sports-science bit on Allen. They show that his throwing on the run mechanics, while they look awkward to some, are actually very good from a physics standpoint. He coils his body and launches from his plant foot, generating great velocity (higher than most of the combine QB's generated from a standard plant pocket throw) off of one leg while leaping. He also replicates this over and over again, and shows he's able to do it under pressure whenever he wants. I'm good with it. The kid has a freaking howitzer, and he seems to have a good feel for the QB position, most people forget he has only been playing competitive QB for what? 4 years? (he didn't even play football until he was a Jr or Sr in HS i think) 7 minutes ago, HappyDays said: Better view: Jesus Christ that was a freaking laser.

Brianmoorman4jesus Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 The corner play behind the starters was not good. We have very little depth behind the starting secondary. The starters in the back end of our defense might be the strongest group of the entire team. The guys behind them, remind me of the Rex days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spot on post I like peterman tho his timing and placement was awesome (after his first throw) he also seems to have a Rythem with KB aj looked solid but I’d like to see him with ones 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although Tyrod would've had a better completion percentage, but also less yards per reception too. Well, Tyrod went 5 for 5 for 99 yards and a TD in 2 series for the Browns tonight in their opener....... Mason Rudolph, who some wanted so they could keep their picks and not make any trades, went 7 of 12 for 101 yards (no TDS) Lamar Jackson went 7 of 18 for 119 yards Mahommes went 5 of 7 for 33 yards My point? dont really have one because its only the 1st Preseason game and the stats don't really mean anything yet........

Ol Dirty B Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 I didn't really have an opinion before tonight's game. But now I'm definitely not a fan of how they are managing Allen. You invest all this draft capital in him, say you might red shirt him, he's the future. Then you play him behind an oline of all guys you're going to cut. If you're going to red shirt him, red shirt him. I don't want him out their behind a bunch of bums taking hits for no reason. It's pointless. He had little to no help tonight, I'm not even sure how you can evaluate a lot of what he did tonight given what he's working with. Remember when Rex was ridiculed for playing Sanchez behind a bunch of bums and got hurt? How about that going for it on 4th down play? That had that bs written all over it. But whatever, it's McDermott, not Ryan. So it can't be the same. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But get him a possession or two with at least the 2nd string o-line (if not the whole 2nd string offense) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALF Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Very interesting 1st preseason game. Enough for McD and other coaches to now make changes.

WideRightRevenge Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Overall ... very happy with what I saw last night (final score aside) ... so what if Carolina's 3rd stringers are better than ours Offense - Liked the new offensive playcalling - Kelvin's play .. looking forward to Coleman/Zay in game 2 - OL .. Teller ..liked what I saw (he's got a nasty streak) and Newhouse's block on the TD run opening the hole was awesome - Agree with starting either Nate/AJ .. but wow given time Josh's arm ... that first throw of the 2nd half .... only if real receiver out there - Marcus Murphy ...giddyup ... nice hard running - Cut Foster Defense - Harrison Phillips ... yea boy - Starting Defense (net of covering screens/dump offs) looked good ... love our secondary - Holy cow ... Shaq showed up - Edmunds looks huge sitting there in the middle ... think the butterflies took over last night ... look forward to more in future games Kelvin was right ... saw last night .. Cam can't hit the broadside of a barn. Was stuck watching the Panther's Broadcast as I live in NC ... Mick Mixon the play by play (who I'm not a fan of anyway) .. ended the first quarter by saying end of the 1st quarter from New Era field .. in Erie County Pennsylvania ... YES Pennsylvania .... guess its preseason for the broadcasters as well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw enough to know that while he is an inexperienced rookie Allen wasn't rattled. I saw that his arm is as advertised. I saw that as an inexperienced rookie QB he'll sometimes make head scratching decisions. If you want to blame someone for the 3rd stringers then I suppose you can choose Beane. You would prefer Peterman play behind that line? Why? You would prefer McCaron play behind that line? Why? You don't see any reason to go for it on 4th down? Your final sentence is worthy of only one response . Edited August 10, 2018 by Cripple Creek 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gives him time to get his NFL game feet. I like this approach. 2) He's in the fire, running for his life but showing confidence and learning under the harshest of conditions. He'll come out battle tested and ready. In other words- excellent training . 3) When he's ready to play with the starters, he will have earned it.
