The Avenger Posted August 13, 2005 Posted August 13, 2005 Local Boston TV announcers on the Pats preseason game at Cincy report that Donahoe is at the game, possibly scouting players who will be cut. Typical Patsy homers - their trash is so good people clamor for it...
Hollywood Donahoe Posted August 13, 2005 Posted August 13, 2005 Local Boston TV announcers on the Pats preseason game at Cincy report that Donahoe is at the game, possibly scouting players who will be cut. Maybe he'll give us next year's 1st for Rohan Davey.
jayg Posted August 13, 2005 Posted August 13, 2005 Lol, White Lord of the Sith. Maybe he'll give us next year's 1st for Rohan Davey. 406282[/snapback]
Rayzer32 Posted August 13, 2005 Posted August 13, 2005 Maybe he'll give us next year's 1st for Rohan Davey. 406282[/snapback] Hey HD, what is the deal with Brady. I read that he has not thrown much at all during camp this week and was seen wearing a compression sleeve on his right arm. I also notice that he has not played tonight. What do you know about this story??

What do you know about this story?? 406287[/snapback] Let me answer for him: No need for concern. Brady has started throwing with his left arm and will finish the conversion by next week. He will throw southpaw for the remainder of the pre-season, by which time the shattered right elbow will be good as new. Then defenses will have to prepare for a QB that not only calls his own plays, but can throw right or left handed...

What do you know about this story?? Very little, unfortunately, as Belichick is very secretive. Brady has a history of right arm troubles, though (Separated shoulder in '02 in '03, elbow injury in '03), so I am worried. I hope it's just precautionary, leaving him out. If Brady goes down, we fall to the cellar, no doubt.
MadBuffaloDisease Posted August 13, 2005 Posted August 13, 2005 Maybe he'll give us next year's 1st for Rohan Davey. Naw, Matt Cassell.

UConn James Posted August 13, 2005 Posted August 13, 2005 If anyone's watching it on Channel 5 out of Boston, just when you thought Randy Cross couldn't possibly look any more of a butt:pirate:, he went and grew a moustache. Naw, Matt Cassell. 406301[/snapback] Cassel actually looked pretty darned good in the 2nd string....

Cassel actually looked pretty darned good in the 2nd string.... That's been his MO throughout his college career. Great in practice/when it doesn't count. There was a reason why he was a top HS recruit, but also why he languished in USC for his whole career without bothering to transfer anywhere.
udonkey Posted August 13, 2005 Posted August 13, 2005 I was at the game - I definitely panned the sidelines for Brady for quite a while and didn't see him. He certainly wasn't in pads, but I might have overlooked him in regular clothes. Dillon was about the only thing that I was impressed with, and that kind of sickens me.
MadBuffaloDisease Posted August 13, 2005 Posted August 13, 2005 I saw Brady on the sidelines in the highlights on ESPN.
LabattBlue Posted August 13, 2005 Posted August 13, 2005 It didn't dawn on me until after the game, but I was surprised that with Brady not playing, that Flutie did not see any action.
Rayzer32 Posted August 13, 2005 Posted August 13, 2005 It didn't dawn on me until after the game, but I was surprised that with Brady not playing, that Flutie did not see any action. 406562[/snapback] Let the whining begin.
Hollywood Donahoe Posted August 13, 2005 Posted August 13, 2005 It didn't dawn on me until after the game, but I was surprised that with Brady not playing... Brady's hurt, it seems. Didn't throw hardly all week in camp and had a wrap on his right elbow.

MadBuffaloDisease Posted August 13, 2005 Posted August 13, 2005 Brady started how many games in college? More than zero. Actually many more than zero. And scouting reports on him were that he was a money player, but lacked the physical attributes to be a successful NFL QB.
ATBNG Posted August 13, 2005 Posted August 13, 2005 Flutie didn't play? 406598[/snapback] No - Belichick said in his press conference after the game that he wanted to get Davey and Cassel the snaps since they hadn't seen much game action...and then added "in one case, since high school." Davey was awful - I've been hoping Flutie was a preseason gimmick, but it looks like he's in good shape to make the squad based on last night. I think they'd like to trade Davey if at all possible, but they probably couldn't get a water bottle unless he shows he can manage a NFL preseason game one of these years. He clearly is not a good fit for the NE offense.
