Patriots/NFL 2020 - Football is back

[Gee Wally]

I dont know what to expect.

 

[Nothingbutglass]

RBs can expect lots of falling on the ball drills.

 

[4ORRBRUIN]

Are they not in love with Stidham anymore?

 

[UConn126]

I love this, as I was a big Newton fan in his prime, but it also reeks of the Ocho Cinco acquisition, another player I loved in his prime. Much like Chad, I'm afraid Cam's just a name at this point, but I would be thrilled to be proven otherwise.

 

[KrejciMVP]

But we were told stidham and his preseason and college stats were a lock for success?

There is no plan obviously.

Back to back Pats news dropping.

Fined 1.1m and lose a 3rd next year due to the Bengals taping incident.

But Newton is in the news. Bigger story

figured something like that was coming....


Glad it wasn’t a first this time

by who?

 

[Smitty93]

LOL at that punishment. Took the NFL 7 months to come up with that? Punishment is basically a slap on the wrist for doing a shitty job of telling their "Do You Job" camera crew what they could and couldn't film. Annoyed that they're losing a 3rd rd pick, but they'll get a comp 3rd rounder for Brady, and then 2 4ths for Van Noy and Collins, so they'll have plenty of middle round picks.

It take me all night to list everyone

Especially with all the comp picks they'll have

 

[JCRO]

I like the deal.

Can’t stand the player. Maybe the off-season he had will make him a bit more humble

 

[CDJ]

I don’t think anybody was calling him a lock. I think people were optimistic....there’s a big difference. I don’t think you can name anybody who was calling him a lock tbh

 

[Fenway]

NFL reportedly hands down penalties for Patriots videotaping incident

 

[ON3M4N]

I'm meh on Newton. His SB performance (or lack there of) is stuck in my mind. Comes off to much like a "me" guy. Hopfully this off- season has been humbling to him and he has a different mindset coming to NE

 

[bb74]

Depth at the most important position on the team, and protection if anyone get's sick during pre-season or the season (assuming it happens anyway). As long as he is not a total A-hole in the room it's a win for the squad depth and possible on field production. No downside given the current circumstances (COVID risks) IMO.

This is laughable. Did you not listen to 99% of the Pats beat writers and radio fanboys since Brady said see ya later Bill?

They will be favored to win the SB now by the Boston media

That’s what I think of.

His meh super bowl performance but more so, from what I recall, how he dragged his teammates in the postgame conference after how poorly he played. (I don’t believe he singled anyone out but still).

And the amount of times I’ve seen him dab/celly in a defenders face after he scores a TD and then hides behind his teammates when the defender tries to get in his face.

I just can’t root for a guy like that.

ok can you show me the people who said he was a lock for success then?


If it’s so laughable it should be awfully easy for you. It’s a genuine question. I think you two are exaggerating on people being optimistic about Stidham

 

[stungun54]

Won't be any ball this year anyway

 

[DKH]

Excellent move

Stidham not following Brady in a pandemic wiped out off season.

Newton healthy can win with this team

definitely must see

You hopefully have a year to access Cam & Stidham development

this is exactly how I wanted it to olsy out

 

[Therick67]

Another shrewd move by BB. Bring in a name QB on a good deal and let the kid develope without the spotlight on him and all the Brady replacement talk..
