If I'm Cam I try to stay in shape and wait a few weeks for guys to get hurt. Some of these backups are probably trash.
OT: 2021 NFL season general discussion thread

I dont trust mac just bc he was throwing to nothing but all americans at bama who were consistently wide open.
same for tua, but who knows how they will pan out.
Was suprised teddy won that job. With a decent defense and denvers weapons they could have a nice year. Brutal division though
Not gonna pretend to know anything about Drew Lock but it looks like he'll be on another team pretty soon.
So looks like DeShaun is staying put, at least for now. I doubt he plays a snap this season. Isn’t he like 3rd on the depth chart?
It's a business. You can't prioritize babysitting somebody's ego over winning. Especially someone who hasn't accomplished jack.
That said, it's pretty annoying that there was such an outcry from around the league for KC to cut Tyreek Hill (who wasn't even charged with anything), yet everybody's tripping over themselves to acquire a guy who sexually assaulted dozens of girls. If it were a mediocre QB in this situation, he'd be out of the league by now.
Managing egos is part of the business.
If Tua wins it will be forgotten. If he doesn't they will look to upgrade.

I understand that first part IF watson was gonna be able to play this season.
No way he plays a down imo. And ur absolutely right, im a dodgers fan and weve lost bauer when he got his damn restraining order dropped bc the allegations were obv so bogus. Sexual assault twice, with the same guy?? Why would you ever meet up with him again if it wasnt consensual smh.
We're coming up on the first week of NFL. Let's talk about the least talked about. I am going with Tennessee. I could see where the Chiefs could possibly be the 3rd or 4th best team. Sounds ridiculous. But I can see Tennessee, Cleveland and Buffalo being better than the Chiefs. I can also see KC laughing at this notion.
In the NFC, I am going with a team not TB, GB or LAR to make it to the SB.

My biggest issue with Tennessee is the didn’t do much to fix their shit defense. Bud Dupree will help get pressure on the QB, but nothing much after that.
Saw headline Ravens worked out Le'Veon and Devonta Freeman. I don't think those guys have anything left. There's gotta be a better option buried on somebody else's depth chart they could poach for a late draft pick. Maybe they just don't want to trade a pick. Or maybe they don't see anything worth a sh!t out there.
It's officially week one, boys. Any game picks you guys wanna make?

Love it when they drop four multiple afternoon kick times. When they only have two the day feels over too soon.
Browns/Chiefs - Game of day?
Browns/Chiefs - Game of day?
We lost a 2nd RB and are now down to just 2. Unfortunately we’re going to have to pick another back up, don’t really want either of those guys, but we’ll see who they sign.
All those I would definitely consider toss ups. Indy is banged up, Philly just has a bad roster, Denver has Teddy, and Miami, I just can't trust Tua yet.
Yea especially with Dak’s first action back from injury. I think Vegas is thinking it’s going to be like a 42-14 game, which I could definitely see.
This could be interesting for the over. Winston probably puts up some points for both teams. Rodgers is just a machine.
I think I like the over here.
Panthers fans are going to be SO disappointed by Darnold. Total dud.
You're probably right, but I think our coach can bring out his talent, if anyone can. The Jets have a history of being a terribly run organization. Darnold will have the best coaching and talent since he's been in the league this upcoming season. We will know probably within 6 games if he will be here more than one season or not.
I’m not rooting against the guy at all, I’ll just say this, as a Jets fan - the Jets have two types of players; Good players with potential that they ruin, and bad players with no potential that they center their franchise around.
Unfortunately, I’ve always put Darnold in the latter category. I just never got the hype around him going back to his USC days. I’ll eat crow if I’m wrong, but I’d be surprised.
I think Zach will be really good for you guys. If Sam doesn't pan out for us, not sure when we will get out of QB purgatory. Our roster isn't bad enough to get the number one pick, even if Sam blows.
No thanks on choosing between the two. My guess is if Darnold fails, we make a big move in the draft. Jimmy G is not a franchise QB. If he was, you guys wouldn't have traded the farm away for his replacement.
Nobody touching this one but...
D Watson seems sort of available...
What's interesting is so many 2nd stringers are really young, so it's hard to say if any of them are good or not. Some face planted as starters, so maybe we know on them, but some of the others just haven't really played.
I agree, I think Wilson will fall into the category of players with potential the Jets ruin.
I’ll be rooting for Darnold - Outside of week one anyway, I have absolutely no hope for a win though, regardless of Darnold’s performance
