    In other news:

    "The New England Patriots-New York Jets rivalry enters a new phase Sunday. Let's call it the Mac & Zach era. For the first time in the 62-year history of the series, the Patriots and Jets will start rookie quarterbacks against each other -- Mac Jones and Zach Wilson, respectively. These aren't just any rookies. They're both first-round draft picks and are considered the long-term answers at the position."

    And:

    "The New England Patriots will be without one of their starting offensive tackles this weekend. On Saturday afternoon, the team officially ruled out right tackle Trent Brown for their Week 2 matchup with the New York Jets."

      The Patriots progress with Mac Jones will be interesting to watch, especially with both starting tackles out today. The hapless Jets may actually have a chance.

        Yup because that pesky vaccine problem with Cam keeps coming up and if the Pats don’t start winning it will linger.

          I love the fact that people who don't know the difference between read-option and spread offenses, are suddenly experts on all things oblete spheroid...😄😄😄

            Secondly, do you think of COVID vaccines during sex?

              Dude you bring it up all the time… i don’t start posts or threads, just react to them. Know yourself.

              But yeah you said the vaccine had nothing to do with Cam’s departure and here they are talking about it again.

                  Come on, guys. There are plenty of other threads to exercise your snark. I'd like this one to remain a happy place. Leave it pristine, please.

                    Ma'am, it ain't "guys", it's "guy". Singular.

                    There are a couple of reasons Newton was shown the door:

                    1. Newton is a read-option QB. The older those guys get, the hits take their toll and we all know that the best ability in the NFL is availability. Cam is dealing with yet another Lis-Franc problem. One bad step, and he's gone for the season. And he still has the shoulder problem, which I think still affects his throwing.

                    2. As a read-option QB, Cam admitted he had a problem reading defenses and assigning blocking coverages under the Patriot system. On most NFL teams, the center assigns the blocking coverages, which is why when a team loses their starting center, they fail to cover the spread in the next game 80% of the time. Cam was having to assign blocking and do full-field reads on passing plays. In Carolina, the center assigned blocking and Cam read the Mike and safeties, then went through his progressions on a half field.

                    Can Cam still play somewhere? Maybe, as a backup. Depends on how bad he wants to play and how bad a team needs him...

                      My post referred to you and Loki. Guys, plural.

                      Talk about Cam or anything else footballish if you want. But I'd like it if you left the back-and-forth sniping at the door in here.

                                  Sorry. The Bears got a TD in the 4th quarter? Hate when that happens. (Said the Voice of Experience, LOL) Also sucks that your QB got hurt.

                                  Bucs are 28 to Falcon 10 in the 3rd quarter. Brady and his posse are doing their thing.

                                    Bucs! 48-25, yay them. 🤗 In my noob opinion they played the better game, although the Atlanta QB gave them a run for their money. Although those dirty good-for-nothing rotten sonsabitches sacked Brady not once, but twice, may their worthless souls rot in hell forevermore.

                                    Other than that, it was fun. 🙂
