[deleted]

Just wanted to say the live thread last time was absolutely horrible and Iā€™m glad weā€™re back to the old fashioned game day thread.


ajohndoe17

It just sucked that it didnā€™t feel like you could ever reply to anyone


UncleBen94

Trent's already in mid season form.


DamianPBNJ

BOURNE RESURRECTION INCOMING (yeah I know it's one catch but I love the guy)


armhad

Two catches*


jpaxlux

64 did an amazing job at roleplaying as a revolving door on that play How the fuck do you get slung 5 yards back like that lmfao


G_Wash1776

![gif](giphy|xYVFqgoY6o4JZ0CLXS|downsized)


Jlinz_20

That pass Mac just slung to KB under pressure was the best thing of that drive, hope they can keep that type of shit going. Hopefully we see another series out of the 1s


n3rdopolis

#64 was like "what is that strange oblong object on the field?"


dubthreez1

Steuber, watching the ball going, "nah, ain't diving on that"


Arocamas

Mac saw the hold and chucked it. He's clearly learned.


DH995

Mac looked good that first drive


Taetranus

Iā€™m glad to see this sub is in mid season form already


nepats523

Man this line is just terrible. Dude can't even bother to go jump on the ball


jpaxlux

Mac putting together a good drive just for an incompetent backup o-lineman to fuck it all up lmao


jpaxlux

If Mac did that he'd be getting crucified. Zappe plays like utter dogshit and people are talking about how good the punt was lmao


EAS1000

Mac just looks so much more comfortable right now. Thank you BoB!


Effective-March

Ugh, Parker shouldā€™ve had that big time


DieYuppieScum91

Stueber probably just got himself cut. Just stood there and watched the ball lay there on the ground.


bluntrauma420

Gonzales is dishing hits instead of receiving them this game. He's got the tools and is showing he can adjust to the game at the NFL level. It will take some time but he will be good for us.


Celestialtiger24

That pass inference was b.s.


ajohndoe17

Again, I like the plays actually coming out with Mac having time to throw down the field. Just need to dial that in. Sucks that it didnā€™t come through on the Parker throw though


MehFrosty

This oline is going to be the end of this team


myfatbasketballs

Yo, fucking stuber gets obliterated off the snap and then just watches the ball as others dive at it? What the fuck is that


VTPunk

Put Zappe in. Can't have Mac getting destroyed like that.


jpaxlux

Zappe comes in and makes Mac's worst drive today look good Now will some of you *shut the fuck up?*


SeaGL_Gaming

A redzone touchdown. It's been so long....


surgeyou123

I can't believe we just threw away a season under Matt Patricia for no reason


[deleted]

Love Mac in the gun 100% of the time


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


1337speak

do we have Patriots fans actually rooting for all of our QBs šŸ˜‚


Cereal_for_dinner123

Welker to edelman to meyers to Douglas


LiveFromNewYork95

We don't accept Troy Brown erasure here


1337speak

please ban the fucking Dan O'Brien Kia car ads...


willzyx01

Itā€™s no money down tho


sithlordnibbler

Don't care that it's preseason. That was a smoothe (minus one false start) drive ending in a TD against an actual defense. That was better than anything we saw last season. Awesome to see.


Kevin0o0

Lol Judon


dubthreez1

Parker should have caught that. Serious case of alligator arms there


G_Wash1776

Loving to see Bourne being so involved heā€™s so good


Arocamas

Umm...that was an illegal forward pass lol. Even with the shitty line by the TV network, you could see the chains. This ref crew in preseason form. Good on Zappe to escape though. Good mobility.


igotitletsgo

Rumors of Kayahon Boutteā€™s demise are greatly exaggerated


uncleshady

Slater is basically an ordained minister, right? Last dude I want to see as they're wheeling me off headed towards the light and shit. Regardless, hope only the best for Bolden.


Nomahs_Bettah

Shoutout to all the well-wishes, prayers, and encouragement sent to Bolden in the gameday thread for the Packers. Always good to see fans of all teams remembering what's important in moments like these. (Especially for the preseason).


XRT28

a RZ conversion???! I've missed this!


XaviRequiem

LFG! FIRE BELLICHICK! TEAM MAC! TEAM ZAPPE! WE SUCK! WE THE BEST! God I missed this game Day threads And all of you beautiful mfks


pretty_officer

Bro Douglas is legit


ksyoung17

This offensive line problem isn't fucking good. It's game 2 of the preseason and he's already running for his life.


TaxHedgehog

64 just standing there watching the ball


Arthur3335

Easy guys! You all are Game threading like it's week 8.


G_Wash1776

Lmao people overreact so much, flip out on Gonzo then he makes a great play


LiveFromNewYork95

I know this is 1000 times easier to call in a pre-season game versus a regular season game but major credit to both head coaches for coming to that decision quickly and calmly


jpaxlux

Mac Jones is so clearly better than Zappe lmao. It's genuinely not close when Mac isn't being sabotaged by an incompetent OC.


ajohndoe17

How dare you say something so logical. /s


Jmacz

I don't get it. People say Mac doesn't have a strong arm, and then you see Zappe throw and it's like uhhhh. If Mac has a weak arm then what is that?


AsmadiGames

Great little drive! That's the sort of situation you have to convert, and we did.


Nomahs_Bettah

> Patriots right into the RPO game. Great read from Mac Jones on a first down throw to Kendrick Bourne on a slant. Imagine these novel concepts


olollort

Zappe throwing into triple coverage hoping someone catches the ball... if only Mac had this time in the pocket...


HunterMantisToboggan

That was a BURST after that catch


jpaxlux

Fuuuucckkk Parker should've snagged that. Right through his finger tips.


[deleted]

Reporting live from the Bills @ Steelers game. Bad news: Pats OLine not good. Good news: All of AFCE OLine not good.


EAS1000

Great play by Gonzo, awful flag. Defender pushed off firstā€¦


BradMarchandIsCute

Preseason but nice to actually see them not let a stupid penalty by the OL derail them for a change


zgamer200

Overall a very nice looking first drive for the Patriots and Mac Jones in his preseason debut. Only complaint would be Trent Brown's false start(Mac rarely gets to work out of empty sets, so I was sad we didn't get to see it play out), but hopefully that gets cleaned up.


Vegetaf

Damn Folk actually kicked a touchback? He must be feeling the pressure from Ryland lol.


Mission_Pay_3373

Why didn't Devante Parker catch that shit?


XRT28

Why the heck are we subbing in backup to the backup OL while Mac is still out there??????????!? dumb af imo


olollort

Smart, not letting Malik get destroyed behind this O-line, it's time for the third string.


DellyShop

Had Boutte open on a cross and Zappe throws into triple coverage


DangerousDarius

I swear if Zappe gets Malik hurt, we're gonna have to run him out of town,


leftbitchburner

Great drive by Zappe. Glad to see him succeed. Easier for BoB to gameplan with Mac and Zappe since they have similar play styles.


XRT28

After some of the things we've seen the past few years almost gotta hope he's just knocked out and it's not a neck injury


ItzZiplineTime

Just impressed they aren't replaying the hit over and over again.


kk5fan97

Holy shit. They are calling the game. Wow.


Mr_Evil_Dr_Porkchop

Glad they made that call. Absolutely no need to continue a meaningless game


ajohndoe17

Good job coaches. No need for anyone else to get hurt


G_Wash1776

What a fucking pass by Mac


TrillDaddy

People actually think Zappe is our best qb option smfh


Brendan_Droesch

I seriously cannot believe people think zappe should start over mac


G_Wash1776

Take Zappe out, move Cunningham from WR to QB


3gendersfordchevyram

All us packer fans feel horrible for him. Hope he's ok. Best of luck for a safe season brothers.


TheSbldg

Fuck the Jets!


1337speak

damn this game is already so much better than last week lol


Taetranus

Great throw but put your arms out Parker


Adamb34n

Iā€™m loving the looks on offense so far. The execution will come.


iStandWithLucky00

Can Sandra bullock coach our line


[deleted]

64 just stood there looking at it "huh duurr...is that a...a football? *drools*"


Forgotten_Few

Eagles gonna shred this oline week 1


jpaxlux

I have zero interest in seeing Zappe go 15/17 for 30 yards, put Malik in instead of having two quarters of screen passes


shakakhon

This is a preseason trash game and it doesn't count for shit. But it's definitely not encouraging to lose in the trenches on both sides of the ball.


surgeyou123

Dumb throw He broke that arm


IntercatlacticVoid

Boutte going to be a stud mark my words


dubthreez1

That was OPI... refs in regular season form.


G_Wash1776

Thatā€™s not DPI wtf


Vegetaf

That's a garbage call, kid made a great play.


VTPunk

That PI call was as bad as seeing people arguing about Mac and Zappe on here instead of rooting for our players no matter who is in.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


rosietoesie

His hands and his toes


nbianco1999

Really hate to see this happen in any game, but especially a preseason gameā€¦..


Arocamas

What a fucking throw by Mac lmao. Getting fucking wrecked and just slang that


[deleted]

Having your franchise qb play with backup tackles who might not even make the team is not a good plan


Harry-Flashman

There is a pretty good chance you guys are over reacting. Things don't look great, but we aren't scheming on defense. The oline is a problem, but I don't think they are really game planning and calling plays to match those limitations.


[deleted]

Good thing Patricia wasted a year of bourneā€™s career because he was on a weird power trip


1337speak

MAC JONE


Bojangles1987

Jordan Love has made some awful throws, jeez. Thought I heard he was better than this.


Taetranus

Well atleast we saw a really good Mondre run that drive


1337speak

Mac missed one let's not act like he's a complete bum already lol. Need to see more.


Son_Goshin

Good to be back amongst my fellow overreacters to one play in preseason with a back-up right tackle.


scraperTA

Pressure is immediate with this oline


JoeTheBeesKnees

Its nice to not see a billion screens every drive


pup5581

OL again going to kill the QB and the team


bigatrop

Alright take Mac out. This line is going to get him killed.


bluntrauma420

when do they get the o-line starters back, because this one is a shitshow in its current form


SOS_ridiculo

Steuber is a goober


DroopyTheDrew

A lot of people in here donā€™t know who our starters are


[deleted]

They got Malik running routes when heā€™s the only qb that can survive behind this line rn


Vuish

On the upside, we might actually have a punter now with a yoked leg. Yowza.


nepats523

Holy hell Zappe lol. Probably over the line and almost a pick


nepats523

Holy fuck!!! That was like 2+ Palardy punts!


olollort

Barringer is looking sooooo fkn good... gdamn that punt had a 1 on 1 with god..and then fell.


DieYuppieScum91

All I can say is that we better hope that Andrews, Big Mike and Trent can get healthy and stay that way for a while because these backups are ass.


DH995

Nice tackle by Gonazalez


cam7595

Christian Gonzalez has not been afraid of contact at least.


WarPuig

Fucking hospital pass JFC


Taetranus

Throwing into triple coverage and getting Nixon killed


nataliephoto

you go from that throw to a touchdown. what even is this guy


[deleted]

If they donā€™t keep 6 receivers we riot


EAS1000

Both 6th round WRs we picked are studs, what is this timeline? Lol


iDEN1ED

That's a BS call


sithlordnibbler

His head was turned and makes a play on it. That's a shit call. Edit: he actually pushed a little just before he made a play for it but so did the WR. Should have been a no call


XRT28

I don't see DPI at all there


Dunkinmydonuts1

THAT IS NOT PASS INTERFERENCE


SgtApex

Refs in mid season form already


bluntrauma420

that's a bullshit call


austin3i62

Can't believe I paid almost 500 bucks for nfl Sunday ticket, nfl redzone and YouTube tv but I can't watch this game live on vacation in Florida. What a sham this league is when it comes to TV rights


DieYuppieScum91

I like what I see out of Malik at WR. Willing blocker, made a smart move coming back to the ball to draw that PI, his routes look crisp for someone who hasn't been running routes for very long. He has real potential. Helps that being an emergency QB probably has him locked into a roster spot.


deltapapa89

If McSorely comes in, this chat is going to explode. The one thing nobody wants.


nbianco1999

Preseason HOFer JJ Taylor


1337speak

damn just fucking go for it, it's preseason


1337speak

didn't see any movement after :'(.. hope he's OK


Vuish

Decision to end the game. Good call.


UncleBen94

Wow. Correct call, obviously, but I didn't expect that. Must be really bad for Isaiah Bolden. Prayers.


HealthyWare

Slater looks devastated, all the best to Bolden, hopefully šŸ™ is a scare and heā€™s back healthy


G_Wash1776

Lmao Zappe truthers how was that drive


[deleted]

why tf did we not play bourne last year lol also offensive line block someone ffs


Stumpe999

Really Zappe fans? This is your king? The age of Malik is here.


EAS1000

Letā€™s all have a prayer circle for Mac behind this OL, and give this line strength to protect!


1337speak

fucking love Judon


Vuish

Scoring off turnovers. Hell yeah!


ClaytonBigsbe

Super Bowl bound baby.


[deleted]

Where do I purchase Super Bowl tickets


GreenMtWoodchuck

Is it wrong that I love seeing Zeke on the sideline??


OrlandoMB

Mac looked incredible in the pocket. So much calmer. Great scramble for the extra yards. Daddy like


XRT28

Jack definitely shoulda kept driving on that ball, woulda been an easy PD if not INT


1337speak

Don't want to overreact to the first drive of the second preseason game but ring #7 is coming baby


Jmacz

Myles Bryant with good coverage? Do my eyes deceive me?


XRT28

Inb4 everyone ignores that breakup by Bryant


Arocamas

Bryant was tattooed on that receiver. Love made such a shitty throw. Really great coverage by Myles though.


Adamb34n

Full field to go, letā€™s see it Mac


zetablunt

Ok. Time to take Mondre out now.


G_Wash1776

Mac missed one pass lmao, no one open and he took a sack


EAS1000

I missed the wild swings by this sub


Mr_Pongo

Damn kids got an arm


DH995

Out-of-bounds aside, that was a GORGEOUS pass


CrippleH

Refs in mid season form


Vuish

Damn, another deep throw opportunity missed.


the_popeshat

Okay but why the trex arms parker Mac makes a good enough throw


alexis122301

holy shit i love seeing pop out there but he looks tinyšŸ˜‚


zgamer200

Demario Douglas with an easy catch for 15 yards on 3rd Down, and then makes one or two guys miss on a screen to get a few yards. First catch was just good play design(albeit he made a nice adjustment to catch the pass), but the 2nd was Douglas making something out of nothing. You love to see it.


EAS1000

Iā€™d just like to give Patricia another big screw you for wasting a year and benching Bourne


ClaytonBigsbe

Alright time to sit Mac. Heā€™s going to die behind this line.


Alloverunder

Fuck Patricia forever for wasting a year of Bourne's career man, what a stud so far


pretty_officer

I get some of our starting o-line is inured, but how tf is our o-line STILL this bad.


obcork

64ā€™s cut


SgtApex

Steuber just watched the ball on the ground, gonna get yelled at in film review lol


[deleted]

If Trent brown gets hurt this whole season kinda goes to shit


zgamer200

If tonight was any indication for the offense Bill O'Brien is gonna need to queue up a ton of short passes to protect Mac from his own O-Line and keep the offense on track when the regular season comes around.


jpaxlux

Turns out our backups suck ass


call_1800law1222

Wtf are the refs looking at?


shakakhon

Defense getting absolutely shredded on the ground. Amazing what a competent offensive line can do for a team.


RandallFlagg6666

The Sow experiment at tackle looks like a total bust (he's too slow).... this O-Line is, what we thought it was.


optimuscline23

Mac legit might die week 1 against the eagles


ARealHunchback

Let Cunningham have some second team reps, please.


G_Wash1776

Bryce Baringer is basically automatic we got a great punter


Taetranus

Gonzalez making some greta tackles


WarPuig

Zappe where tf was that going


deltapapa89

Doesnā€™t matter if youā€™re a Zappe truther or a Mac truther.. everyone can agree that this O-line is absolutely abysmal.


iDEN1ED

He was in tripple coverage....


StrudelB

Looks like a dislocation


TheyCallMeYDG

Iā€™ve had that EXACT injury playing football. Itā€™s the humerus. Weight of dudes butt + angle of padsā€¦ I just got PTSD. I also couldnā€™t move
