Pre-season starts Sunday. That can only mean one thing......
It is time for the annual UDRFA to get fans all excited over a few performances in the 3rd and 4th quarter of pre-season games. Usually this is a RB or WR who looks like OJ or Jerry Rice against other teams scrubs. He puts up huge numbers and fans go nuts when he gets cut and ends up on the PS for a few weeks until being cut again and then never heard from in the NFL again.
Let's hear it - who is this year's Kwame Cavil or Anthony Gray?????
Re: Pre-season starts Sunday. That can only mean one thing......
Also, it's that time of year when people defend ****ty preseason performances by saying things like "preseason doesn't matter- just wait til the regular season!"
Because, you know, teams magically get better in a month.

And btw I like to refer to this as the "Konstantin Ritzmann Award"
Re: Pre-season starts Sunday. That can only mean one thing......
Tori Gurley will tear it up. MVP.
Re: Pre-season starts Sunday. That can only mean one thing......
You forgot the part when the Patriots pick up the cut player and we freak out because we must have missed something if the Pats wanted him.
Re: Pre-season starts Sunday. That can only mean one thing......
Easley, the perennial preseason MVP, will tear it up again and people will once again buy into him being a big deal.
Even though he shoulda been cut years ago.
:rofl:

Nah, the Pats don't do that because we missed something. They do it because we always seem to have a new system on one or both sides of the ball and Bellicheck wants as much info as he can when there's no game film.

"It's a plain-vanilla offense".
"Coach (insert name) is keeping it under wraps."
"No sense playing your hand before the season starts. That's why they've looked bad."

One thing is a lock.
*****ing like teen girls...I see it's already started.

Well that happens everywhere. No one should complain about the complainers of a team that hasn't seen the play-offs since 1999. A lot of it is justified.

Hopefully it's Bryce Brown.
Re: Pre-season starts Sunday. That can only mean one thing......
Are we restricted to RB's and WR's?

And some would dismiss a good performance the same.
That one is a matter of perspective

The weird thing is that he has actually turned into a worthwhile #6 WR and ST guy.

The weird thing (to me) is we haven't heard too much about him so far this season. It seems we are hearing a lot about Hogan and others, but not a lot about him so far. He has stood out in prior preseasons. We'll see.

Hope not. I would love to see guys like Cyril Richardson, Cyrus Kouandijo, Seantrel Henderson, Stefan Charles and Preston Brown stand out.

And if EJ and the team looks great you'll say preseason doesn't matter.
