dollars 2 donuts Posted August 11, 2022 Posted August 11, 2022 (edited) @eball @nucci @goober BW, gentlemen, your whole back and forth on this has been tremendous and I would expect nothing less from veteran board members that I have so much respect for. Bravo. My apologies for being a weak interloper, but I could not resist. Edited August 11, 2022 by dollars 2 donuts 2 1 Quote

On 8/10/2022 at 9:54 AM, machine gun kelly said: So Jeremy and Howard had a fun conversation yesterday sparked by the Chargers HC stated Herbert wouldn’t take a snap in the preseason nor has he ever since entering the NFL. In addition, the Chargers HC said he’s not playing any of the starters who are veterans and Inam paraphrasing. If you go on Audacy their show yesterday should still be there on demand. They then as a fun exercise said who should McD sit as they already know what they have in these players. Offense Allen Diggs Davis McKenzie Morse Dawkins Defense Von Oliver Milano Edmunds Basically the whole secondary except for Elam. There is a small argument to play Allen a little on the 3rd game so Dorsey and Allen can get on the same page with play calling. Personally, I agree except for Morse and Dawkins. I see the value of getting our starting O Linemen gelling together for a quarter each PS game. Starting RBs benefit from live action as they don’t get it in camp. On defense there is value in Basham, Epenesa, and Rousseau getting snaps as they are still young. What do you guys think about young guys and backups getting the majority of snaps, and the injury risk is too great in a year where we are hopefully in a SB run. Love to hear you’re arguments. Sure we are all excited, but I’m more excited about seeing our rookies and depth seeing what they can do in game time play. I could care less if we lose all three games. In 2020 we had no preseason and look how well we started that year. Expand imo, if Josh plays at all in preseason, it should be next week at home for kids day. WNY kids ❤️ their Josh!

When Josh fired that freaking laser to Ray Ray I was like, “not many humans can make that throw.” It’s why all year long I shook my head at those who criticized Josh’s stats. It was plain as day to anyone who wanted to see it that the kid was special. Expand Ditto. I was -well, rather adamant- proving all our naysayers here WRONG about their Josh decrees. 👍 2 Quote

But the Colts have a 37-year-old QB that they're banking on. Yes .. he's been VERY durable throughout his career; but this is just playing with fire. The only thing it can mean is that the offense isn't "clicking" yet, which is just fine by me. Expand Well, they (Frank) did Blow it Big Time investing their future in Wentz last year. For a while, Frank was on the Hot Seat after their season ended without a playoff game. Colts will feel this pain for years in dead money and lost picks cuz they ended up just kicking him to the curb after 1 year! So they GOTTA be sure with Ryan. jmo Quote

Besides that offense runs thru JT anyway. Quote
