Training camp matters a lot.
Sets the tone for the upcoming season. Bye the end of camp, we should be a fine tuned machine ready to go. There is not time to learn on the job (game time) in the NFL. I try not to get to excited or deflated with ints or td's but instead look at the overall arc of the camp. Cool aid drinking and bashing are not even realistic at this point so why bother. Another big deal is the health of the team entering the season, not enough talented backup on this team to suffer significant injuries. |

Unless you have a veteran team that has played a few seasons together, no team is finely tuned anymore until around games 3 or 4. They don't have their game legs until then because throughout preseason they play about a total of 5-6 quarters over 4 games. This year there are only 3 games so..... |

Any bets on the number today?

You need to read the article in the Mahomes thread. Paraphrasing here, but Mahomes says he knows the underneath routes are going to be open, so they are challenging the deeper routes to work on the timing.

Every QB is 'learning on the job' during game time. Every single one, except maybe a guy like Brady who's seen everything. Geezus, do you think young players just master their position by the end of training camp? Do you think Carson Wentz had the entire offense down pat last year? Do you think Ben Roethlisberger had the offense down when he trotted out there 3 games into his rookie season? This whole idea that QB's (young or otherwise) either do not or can not learn on the field during live games is the dumbest take I can think of. It's not just wrong, it's the exact opposite of what is actually true. |
