Huckleberry Posted August 9, 2018 Report Share Posted August 9, 2018 (edited) Seriously looking at how those practices are going, I bet Allen is a starter in game 5. The defense is probably top 10 in the league, so it doesn't help the offense much in practice. But your two probable starting QB's aren't showing much promise.

I think the biggest reason Allen would become a starter by week 5 is the brutal start to the schedule (as it looks going in, anyway). A 1-3 or even 0-4 start is not out of the question and would be a perfect excuse to change things up at QB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubkev Posted August 9, 2018 Report Share Posted August 9, 2018 Terrible audio. Turn it down. But the body language between these two suggests that Cam wants to know why KB is talking smack and KB is seemingly all about treating Cam like an old flame that he wants nothing to do with.

JujuFish Posted August 9, 2018 Report Share Posted August 9, 2018 Nathan Peterman, starting at QB, had a very good first drive. 7/7 for 75 yards and a TD to Benjamin. That's not counting a 34 yard TD to Streater that was called back on pass interference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm encouraged how much our offense looked like a real NFL offense. Easy completions based on scheme Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty more have 'gi' with soft g in the middle. The "g" in "gif" stands for "graphic." How is that word pronounced? Anyway. Really, on the first preseason game?

He said the inventor should have spelled it differently had he wanted it to be pronounced like Jif. The standard pronunciation of "gi" is with a soft g (though, there are exceptions.) You're making a different argument: basically, that he should have used a different first word in the acronym -- one starting with a soft g -- if he wanted it to be pronounced that way.

To be fair, I was hiking during the game. Caught some of the last two drives and then a few clips and gifs on twitter. The last two throws he made were exactly what you’ve heard he can do in beautiful fashion. He had a few misplaced balls and the 4th down play where he just heaved it up was terrible (but coachable). I came out feeling positive about what all three QBs did at this point in their careers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weave Posted August 10, 2018 Report Share Posted August 10, 2018 Have we had a preseason game post-Kelly where the QB's looked decent? Cuz all 3 looked decent. I can see where Allen gets his rep re: accuracy, but man that kid can chuck a football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was at the stadium, and it was *fun* when the kid came out to start the 2nd half. The crowd (such as it was (decent)) rose to its feet and got loud. And then he damn near hit a huge play. Like I said: Fun. Also, I think that drive went three and out because of a dropped pass. 3 hours ago, Weave said: Have we had a preseason game post-Kelly where the QB's looked decent?

The QBs in the first half got a bunch of easy completions based on scheme, routes, etc. Yes, yes -- the D plays vanilla. But so too does the offence. The QBs executed very well. Also with regard to Allen's accuracy: 1 hour ago, erickompositör72 said: It was cause for some hope. Re:Allen- I thought his accuracy was good- several incompletions due to incompetent receivers I too saw nothing to suggest he'd be inaccurate. I mean, that 60+ yarder to start is incredibly difficult to hit. And the bomb that was missed in the end zone was not inaccurate -- that was a good ball that a guy like Coleman likely catches. That touchdown at the end? Supremely accurate. Lots of good balls from the rookie. The passes that looked bad were from poor decisions (I ain't worried) and what looked like some miscommunications (QB had the WR breaking to the sideline, but WR stayed inside, etc.). There were at least 2 bad drops, too. Edited August 10, 2018 by That Aud Smell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Aud Smell Posted August 10, 2018 Report Share Posted August 10, 2018 A couple of throws that were wonky on his part? Maybe just the one? I think he's got a chance to develop into a good QB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LTS Posted August 10, 2018 Report Share Posted August 10, 2018 The one thing that was immediately noticeable and has nothing to do with preseason... the speed with which he throws the football. It's moving. Haven't seen that in awhile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
