| FTBL Cam cut. Mac Jones to be starter

[Sgt. Lincoln Osiris]

I'll say this also: there are people that are placing this squarely on Cam's controversial Vax choice.

This takes away from the fact that Mac just outplayed him all summer and thru the preseason.

It's both. Performance and the vaccine status.

Man, please.

You know that if $Cam actually played better than Mac, they'd let him skate with twice a week testing.

On the flipside, the same is true if Mac had not shined like he did.

Mac's Bama teammate having some fun...

I thought it was inevitable that he would overtake Cam, and doing it now saves them some money.

Where does Cam end up?

McDonalds?

Another chuckle

And Hoyer cut this morning

 

[It Takes Eleven]

And Hoyer cut this morning

They must be signing someone cut from another team today, and even then they're playing with fire with Stidham not back for a while.

If they do, it will only be once

 

[Rolltide24]

Pats put Stidham on the PUP list so he can’t play the first 6 weeks. It looks like they may resign Hayer in the next few days, may have been some sort of a strategy to get around something by cutting him. They’ll still need another QB, can’t go 6 games with 2 on the roster. Huge gamble!

I don't think Cam is good enough at this point to overcome some of the "stuff" that comes along with him. Specifically, there has been plenty of talk about his lack of focus at practice and not being vaccinated, and both of which would certainly draw the ire of Belichick. But, he also isn't, and never was, a fit for their offense. McDaniels had to adjust what they did last year, and results were... not good. With Mac, they can go back to their traditional offense. Would be silly to compare Mac to Brady, but he's a perfect fit to run the offense that Brady ran. Also no denying he had a fantastic camp and preseason.

Plenty of guys not vaccinated in the league for that to be a true reason in my mind. Lamar Jackson, Cole Beasley, and Kirk Cousins to name a few big names off the top of my mind that weren't cut. I personally think he has been done for a few years from a level worthy of starting in the NFL and a salary that he was pulling. His throwing motion always bothered me the way he would lean back in efforts of unloading. On top of it, Belechik isn't a guy known for a Pete Carroll or Dabo Sweeney approach where he's "bros" with his players. He's a level or two above Saban where he sits atop of the tower and expects everyone to fall in line and expects no BS from anyone. Brady was such a staple because of his focus, quiet living away from the field, healthy living choices, and his precision. Newton is none of those things. Mac is definitely more in line in my mind to that than almost anyone else in the NFL. He's like the perfect Labrador Retriever. He is smart, wants to learn, wants to work, put in the time, and then go out there to please with his execution. Doesn't command the notoriety, doesn't want the flash, just wants to sit back and win.

I couldn't have asked for a better case of Karma than for a 'Bama QB to contribute to the cutting of the sacred Barn Cow. Now if Newton could do/say something get his a$$ on the Butcher block to be smoked, that would be the cherry on top!
