Huh? They benched Allen and we knew before the week that Grier was starting the last two games. It wasn’t a surprise to anyone that Grier was starting. He had as much prep as Allen did the last week in 2018. Don’t forget that Allen started in 2019 after Newton was ruled out. Same scenario as Grier starting twice. I know the fluff piece on Grier this off season said he wasn’t prepared but again it wasn’t like he came in after the first series. He was named the starter for the week before the game.

I’ll just say that I don’t believe the fluff until I see it in game. He looked that bad to me. If we had preseason games, I might think differently but such is this year. 

The facts are obvious to everyone--but the mentality of a starting qb vs. a backup is the point.   I think Grier was mentally immature about backing up, and did not prepare for the day he would get a crack.  That's all.  Not saying he was good or will be.  I will say that I know people who know him,  and his attitude/entitlement were concerns.

Thomas-Oliver listed as third string.

If Gross-Matos starts, we would have 4 draft picks starting on the defense---3 is unheard of--but FOUR?  that is over a third of the defense.

Don't y'all start cursing Pride and saying "He sucks!" when these veteran QBs start going after him.  They will.

If they can get time to throw. Im banking on this pass rush to be really good.

45% of the starting defense are rookies. 

Excited to see them play.

Daley at LG -- I was hoping he would land that gig.

That’s what the fluff piece said. I’m sorry, but until he’s in a live situation, I’m not going to buy preseason fluff pieces over my eyes. It’s a weird offseason so it’s easier for a guy to look great to be honest. I think the way someone handles the game is what separates the good from the mediocre, especially at the QB spot. I mean if after starting for years at high school and top division 1 college doesn’t have you ready to start a game then I don’t know what will. That’s part of the reason I am not going to believe a fluff piece until I see it on the field.

Let's hope he makes an impression and plays well all season. It would be nice to have a good interior lineman again.
