I wouldn't play him either behind this OL and chemistry still developing in practice.  Stabilize things first before live bullets start flying. 

Was kind of thinking this but I’m just going to see how it all plays out…

Xavier Woods up

  • Coming together in the secondary from a relationship standpoint. Jordan and Nick have been together for a few years, plus guys that were there last year. No lead guys in the room, no cancerous guys. They're just competing, giving effort, giving energy, making each other better, and making the offense better.
  • Can see that Chau Smith-Wade is tenacious, can play both inside and outside which will help his career. Went through an up and down day today but has been stacking days. He'll help us this year and is going to be a good one.
  • Talked about Peppers' meeting with the team afterwards, especially the emphasis on being family and holding each other accountable.
  • Asked about WRs popping out. "We knew Diontae had gas." "Thielen has been doing this for 30+ years." ISM is gonna talk trash. Mingo has especially stepped up as well. Coach shows who won and who loss in the meeting rooms, so they want to win.
  • Got fined by Jaycee for not getting an INT the other day, but he's gotta pay one too. They vote together to determine whether or not a DB dropped the pass. X is the treasurer and holds the money. "He's definitely getting fined." DB group likes to do stuff at the end of the year and the pot goes to whatever event they do then.
  • Doesn't want to prove anything, just wants to win. Tired of losing. "This program, this team, this tradition is winning. We want to get this team back to the top and winning where it belongs." Guys set goals for themselves, but everyone's mindset is to win. Guys from last year knew they were last, but they also knew that the talent on the team didn't reflect the record. Have to go out and improve every day so that they can take those wins.
  • Not concerned at all about the pass rush. Clowney's been doing this for 30+ years too. And DJ's definitely coming along." Young guys coming along too, and Evero is going to scheme them up. It's on the backend to hold up so that the pass rush can get there. It's a back and forth relationship.
  • Not having Burns or Shaq out there, that's the league. Guys come and go. After playing for 8 years it isn't weird for faces to change in the locker room. That's the NFL.
  • All three safeties can't be on the field at the same time but they want to succeed. Jordan, Nick, and Xavier all know each others' strengths + weaknesses. They hold each other accountable and play off of them.

Trevin Wallace wrapping it up

  • First preseason game is his first NFL so he's very excited to show the reason he was drafted.
  • Biggest adjustment at this stage is that he was at the top in college but now he's starting at the bottom, but he's got great veterans to bring him up. Shaq and Josey have been key in helping him focus on being a pro. Very complimentary of them. Thought Shaq was gonna be the mean vet but he's chill, more like a bigger brother to him. Asks him all of the questions and joke around, with Shaq often joking with him on what's going to be a fine and what isn't. Asked if they had a system like the DBs do with the fines. They fine him over silly stuff like not telling Shaq about a birthday. Joked that he was gonna get fined by Shaq for the press conference.
  • Asked about Josey's INT. Pointed out Josey's eyes and seeing a high level vet flow while moving. Watches him and Shaq a lot on film because they've been in the league for 8 + 10 years respectfully. Seeing an older guy sacrifice their body in camp by diving for the ball gets the young guys amped.
  • Sang for his rookie talent show. Didn't wanna say what song, said it wasn't good for him and that its PG-13. Can't put it in R&B nor hip hop, but it was explicit. Media was badgering him to reveal it. Revealed that his first song was "Bump and Grind" by R. Kelly, but the second song was meant to be funny and make everybody laugh. They clapped and some folks were in the back singing it. He'll tell the reporters on the side afterwards what it was. Asked about coaches being brought up on the talent show. Canales was called up. Sang "Three Little Birds" by Bob Marley. "I got scared because he almost sounded better than me, but he didn't."
  • Rookie LBs are close, Trevin is the clown of the group. Makes crazy noise and having fun in the morning since he gets up early due to having two girls. Badgers Michael Barrett about his HS football team beating their HS football team in SE Georgia (even though they never played each other). 
  • Biggest adjustment was being at the facility from 6:30am - 6:30pm. Getting adjusted to the free time as well.
  • Took a lot from listening to Peppers. Talked about having to come out every day, even beat up, to do a job.

does everyone forget that the patriots play dirty as fug? totally fine waiting until the jets for the 1st team to play.

They are going to count the Jets practice as more important than the actual preseason game. That'll be next weeks excuse

Oof seeing him basically close his eyes and lob it into the middle of the field is giving me PTSD flashbacks from last season.

Looks like Marshall might have been coming in wide open on the left as well.

It probably is though. More reps in practice and going against another team.  I have marked that week for quite a while.

Maybe not more important, but more revealing maybe.

      Week 12 Other NFL Games

      They gave him franchise QB money. Sorry but if you don't earn it you can be embarrassed.   He's rich he can take it. Stop feeling sorry for people who can't live up to their contract. This isn't a sport to be soft. Daniels deserves to give back some of that money he stole if you ask me.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      And it was coming off of a bye week. Perhaps he should vacation a bit in Germany in the off season, something certainly seemed to help him there.  No, really... He showed maturation and the possibility that he's turning a corner. That wasn't the NY Giants out there, but the back to back Super Bowl champions with the #3 defense in the league, with them coming off of a prime time loss. And that was a 9-1 team we just played literally down to the last second. Bryce played so well that maybe, maybe he wins over some nay-sayers. It's still early, though, but what a nice breath of fresh air that was. You can win quite a few games if that is your normal performance. It is obvious that we are still on the learning curve, though. But that was one helluva test he just took. Some of these QBs coming out of college just don't have a lot of games under their belts, especially in top end programs. They are perhaps just a year to two years behind center in games that matter before they move up. It can take them some time to hit their stride. We can still be cautious about our future and still celebrate a great game by the kid, though, and we should. He earned the laurels today, or had before they were snatched away at the last second.
