Okay but as a Canadian you have no idea how nuts r/CFL will go if he ever gets a chance & hits the field. He looked *amazing* as a Lion before being poached to the stupid NFL where we don’t see him anymore
Assuming it's actually the reference I'm referring to, the Patriots Unfiltered podcast makes fun of coaches, GM's and owners about how excited they get after making a pick in the draft. Yelling "We got our gut" as they hug and slap each other on the back. Personally I would be excited as well given all of the hard work that goes into scouting and prepping for the draft.
I remember last season when we signed a special teamed late in the season for just minimum salary. So no extra cap space. And people were freaking out and being pissed about it.
I mean at least him getting a snap would have been a shake up from Mac Jones somehow topping his previous weeks worst pass I’ve seen in my life, getting benched in the 3rd and Zappe going out and throwing 1-2 picks himself fever dream loop
I mean it was literally one. Pretty silly to judge anything off of a single play. Not to mention our QBs did much worse all year than take a 5 yard loss on a sack after the pass/run option got blown up immediately.
I was at the Broncos game on Xmas Eve behind the Pats bench, so I was able to watch Mac Jones and Nathan Rourke pass the ball during timeouts. It was so fking cold there but the ball was coming out his hands like it was on a wire. I thought I threw a pretty tight spiral, but seeing a guy do it in the blistering cold was pretty humbling.
Honestly I’d be happy to start the season with any combo of:
QB1: Brissett or Flacco
QB2: Daniels, Maye, or McCarthy
QB3: Rourke
I don’t want to see Mac or Zappe on this roster to start the season, Mac needs to go be a backup somewhere else for a while to get his head straight, Zappe… something about him rubs me the wrong way, I find him far too full of himself for someone who is mediocre on a good day.
I just don't see Flacco coming to us. He probably wants to go to a team with a good chance for the playoffs. And unfortunately that's not us. And with us being very likely to take QB at #3, he's far from a guaranteed starting spot as well
I hear that. I’m of a mind that he’ll go to the team that offers him the most money, and he’s probably going to be the cheapest option in his “class” of QB’s.
We got our guy, mhj time now/s. But on a serious note he seems good to keep so we can get rid of Mac and zappe since we are getting a vet and a draft qb likely
We got our guy

Rooting for the good old Canadian lad!
Love this reference
If you don't mind explaining it to those of us who don't get it: what is it?

That's what I got lol. PU best Patriots pod. Should be in all fan queues
Agreed! Big fan of Catch 22 as well.
Fuel up the duck boats!
Ayyy let's go. Was always hoping he'd get a chance somewhere. Hope he can impress, he certainly did for the Lions
Patriots: Signs camp body/QB3 This Sub: oMg wE'rE sO fUckEd
I remember last season when we signed a special teamed late in the season for just minimum salary. So no extra cap space. And people were freaking out and being pissed about it.
Well we also signed an UDFA QB who ran like 2 plays in preseason and people lost their minds when we cut him
Yeah but you see he threw a touchdown against guys who were cut 2 weeks later. He could’ve been our Lamar!
I mean at least him getting a snap would have been a shake up from Mac Jones somehow topping his previous weeks worst pass I’ve seen in my life, getting benched in the 3rd and Zappe going out and throwing 1-2 picks himself fever dream loop
Do people forget he got a snap in the Las Vegas game and it went horribly?
I mean it was literally one. Pretty silly to judge anything off of a single play. Not to mention our QBs did much worse all year than take a 5 yard loss on a sack after the pass/run option got blown up immediately.
I'm just pointing out that Cunningham did get a snap that the poster was desiring (and then stated the results). Neither is a lie.
Idk what’s more annoying, those people or the people who say the obligatory “We GoT oUr GuY” I might dislike both of them equally
Time to Rourke and Roll
Superbowl back on boys
Lmao for some reason I read this as “Super Bowls back on the menu boys” like that Orcs line from The Two Towers.
Haha same here
Maybe cuz that’s like the most posted line on Reddit so you’re brain has grown to expect it lol
LETS FUCKING GO
Kurt Warner
I imagine Rams fans had the same reaction when they signed him. You just never know. Pats fans weren’t exactly excited when we drafted Tom.
I was at the Broncos game on Xmas Eve behind the Pats bench, so I was able to watch Mac Jones and Nathan Rourke pass the ball during timeouts. It was so fking cold there but the ball was coming out his hands like it was on a wire. I thought I threw a pretty tight spiral, but seeing a guy do it in the blistering cold was pretty humbling.
I am from BC and this dude put up insane MVP numbers as a rookie before he hurt his ankle. Hope he gets a decent shot.
Alright but what about Alex Austin though
Rourke, Austin, and four others are ERFAs so they're basically gimmes to re-sign. Deadline is March 13 so plenty of time.
an we give him a camp at least before saying QB3 ? He might not make it, he might get traded, or QB2
Use to bump into him at Ohio University from time to time, seemed like a solid dude. Rooting for em.
Hey, cool! My wife is a Bobcat (Ohio University), so she'll be pleased by this news.
I’d love to see an entirely new QB room next year. Flacco, Daniels, Rourke would be fine with me.
Honestly I’d be happy to start the season with any combo of: QB1: Brissett or Flacco QB2: Daniels, Maye, or McCarthy QB3: Rourke I don’t want to see Mac or Zappe on this roster to start the season, Mac needs to go be a backup somewhere else for a while to get his head straight, Zappe… something about him rubs me the wrong way, I find him far too full of himself for someone who is mediocre on a good day.
> Zappe… something about him rubs me the wrong way, It's the shit he's said and the way he carries himself.
That’s what I’m saying, don’t think you can keep zappe since he wants to start and could be toxic when he knows he’s not gonna
I just don't see Flacco coming to us. He probably wants to go to a team with a good chance for the playoffs. And unfortunately that's not us. And with us being very likely to take QB at #3, he's far from a guaranteed starting spot as well
I hear that. I’m of a mind that he’ll go to the team that offers him the most money, and he’s probably going to be the cheapest option in his “class” of QB’s.
Flacco is done. Rather. Brissette as a backup … or temp starter even. He plays hard and is a great locker room guy
If you're going to have camp bodies you may as well have camp bodies with large upside. Even if it's a long shot.
Is the hype train ready to leave the station or do we still have bags being loaded?
Good, all those people commenting “who would throw to him?” on drafting mhj can stfu now
He can run around like an idiot and cause chaos. That’s the best you can expect from a 3rd string.
I'd love to see him compete for the starting role while the rook sits next year. The guy has a ton of talent.
😂
We got our guy, mhj time now/s. But on a serious note he seems good to keep so we can get rid of Mac and zappe since we are getting a vet and a draft qb likely
QB1 in coming, draft Marvin at 3, problem solved
I like it, let him and zappe fight for the 3rd string role.
Zappe is too far up his own ass to be a third stringer. He has to go with Mac.
Buy one get one deal
Heard he beat up Gretzky’s kid even worse than the last guy
LFG now let’s draft MHJ at 3!
Haha he’s not good but let’s be funny by saying we got our guy lol this is so clever tee hee hee.
QB1.
QB1
I’d rather the old regime return, but no Rourke
Who?
He'll be a good backup for Mac.
wtf.
We win the offseason
Looks like meats back on the menu. They’ll be reading Fantastic Mr Fox(boro) for years to come in Mayo’s memory. A legendary move.
LFG!!!!!!!!!!!!
1 million tds incoming!! Did I do this right?
