Rick's drought of the Tampa Bay Times says, Tom Brady is indeed
returning to the Bucks today. He may turn around and leave
recognizes that in addition to Ryan, Jensen, who's been gone
since early in Camp with a knee injury, they have yet to fully
diagnose because the swelling hasn't gone down. Tristan worse
is day-to-day with an oblique strain. Now Aaron steny
out for the season with a torn ACL and MCL suffered
in this weekend's preseason game. At Tennessee,
third offensive lineman to get injured during training camp
and One, we definitely know as a season Ender worth probably
will be back sooner than later. Jensen
will be back later than sooner
stinney won't be back at all, and it's another blow to that
middle of the offensive line with steny. That's
the vulnerable spot for Tom. Brady, Chris, it is, it's concerning,
I'm in,
you know, it makes you. Yeah, it's, I worry about that.
Certainly I do and, you know, you look at their schedule and
some of the defense's they got to play early on in the year
and now they're going to be,
you know, relying on a
Unproven Center.
Maybe now a rookie
the other DeLuca dekhi
Gaddafi who they drafted, was at the second or third round.
I can't remember exactly off the top of my head, he's going to
get thrown into the fire here. So
yeah, there's some issues and
issues that you quite frankly or just their more important
with the Buccaneers and most teams. They it's not Josh,
a Lander Patrick Mahomes or jobber. Oh, Justin Herbert. We
know it's an issue. There's no doubt you look in any game.
They've lost the last few years. It's boom,
it doesn't. It's a team that can get pressure on Brady
period, he's not going to get outside the pocket, make plays
that way, he's not necessarily going to stand in there and
take a
lot of shots either.
So that's where it's like. Whoa,
it does make you think a little differently of them and how
they can, you know, kind of make this all work. They have
a really damn good team. Brady is smart.
I know he'll know how to get the ball out of his hands but
I don't care what you say. It is a little concerning for
a team that we look at as a Super Bowl contender.
Yeah, absolutely. And you know
they got that game in Dallas coming up, 20 days from now and
we saw how they moved Michael Parsons around last year.
If there's a weakness up the middle,
could we see Michael Parsons? I mean, whether as linebacker,
blitzing up the middle here or how in certain circumstances,
just haven't put his finger in the dirt. If they can't stop
anybody up, the middle ain't going to be able to stop him,
that's
for sure. Well no no I think you know there's a lot of
things there, you know, are they gonna is this? Going to be
experienced enough when it's stunts in certain blitzes to
pick up things the right way and communicate and pass guys
off
the right way. You know, that's certainly something to watch
out for here, but
yeah, big blow for a team that we know has been really good
up there in that department. Here, the last few years, they
can overpower you in the Run game and they can create a wall
for Brady to throw, and that's when he's dangerous.
But yeah, it's definitely something to watch here early
on in the year, when, you know, like we saw Cowboys Saints week
2, No Green Bay Kansas City. They got some studs on
the defensive line that's for sure.
Speaking of the Saints has been quite optimism. That Receiver
Michael Thomas who hasn't played much the last two
seasons suffered an ankle injury against the Bucs week
one in 2020. That he'll be good to go
coach. Dennis Allen says, the Thomas is dealing with
a hamstring injury.
He hasn't played in the preseason yet this year.
I mean, we'll see, you know what the hamstring though? It's and
it's got to be tough for Thomas, because he is
champing at the bit to
Get back to play
when you get the hamstring,
you just got to give it time
to rest and recover
or you're constantly going to be dealing with is going to
grab. You can have setbacks every time you try to open it
up. That's when it's going to get you. And, and it's
unfortunate because it was feeling like we were going to
see him right out of the gates. Now, Chris, I think
we just have to wait and see what happens. Yeah, hopefully,
it's precautionary. All right, hopefully it's just like, hey,
it's tweaked a little bit or it's a little tight and
whatever else. Else? Because yeah, I would like to see
him Jarvis, Landry, Crystal Lobby, who looked pretty good.
The other night, all together on the field are they can be,
you know, dangerous group, an unforgotten, or a forgotten
dangerous group. But, you know,
I also like to point out, you just say, champing at the bit.
I think it's chomping, just let champing now. It's Champion,
it's camping.
Yeah.
What is gets? It may be one of those things where it has been
said, so incorrectly for so long that it's now known as
Champs acceptable, know what that is.
It's, it's you champing with your teeth. It's change. Its?
I don't know. It's ready to go. Just look it up. Look it up.
Okay, either way, it's one of those afraid but it should be
chomping on it. Should be chomping out the event.
Yes. It's a situation where stupidity takes over when it
actually is like your regardless like irregardless is
a word that's a stupid. But well. Okay
you mentioned Matt Correll earlier in the program. The
third round rookie quarterback of the Carolina Panthers is out
for the year with a list. Frank injury, and his foot, that
happened the other night, it was PJ walk.
Walker for the Panthers. Then Matt Correll Walker, had to
come back because they weren't playing either Baker Mayfield
or Sam Donald and this hurts. Not because
anyone expected him to play this year, Bryce was a great
opportunity for him to be the third quarterback practice.
Yeah, around. Right. Get in it. Give you. Because after this
year, who knows what direction they go Mayfield's contracts
up, Donald's contracts up,
Corral's. Got four years
three after this year,
he could have been the guy next year and still could be,
but it's going to be harder to do.
If he can't do anything physically this season, that's
right. I mean either way they're going to bring you know
it Baker and Sam aren't there. They're gonna bring somebody
else in there. Not going to be like oh here you go Matt
Correll. But, you know, as I said last segment don't like
the look at all
he's small. He's way too small and that that worries me
and it does not look like, you know, he's in the same
Stratosphere as Malik Willis or Kenny pick it. So I might take
one on the chin this year as far as my quarterback rankings.
I'm not feeling too confident about that one
unfortunate. You're right because you figured he'd
probably get it. Some good amount of reps here in
the preseason game. Number three and they didn't protect them at
all that but just the look of it
was was discouraging for me at least and
yeah it's unfortunate that he's not going to get those reps and
a guy that was, you know, somewhat raw to begin with
coming out of Ole Miss. And now you don't get to
like you say, become a little more seasoned to playing NFL
quarterback. So think for him, that's that's too bad and you
know we'll see where it goes for him. Is the as the injury,
gets healed up and going into next year.
By the way, it is champing not chomping, but chomping has come
to replace champing
because everybody says chomping, I just,
yeah, ugly and correctly is, well, yeah, you're too smart.
Shut up. I don't even like you, okay.
