If Baker Mayfield grows up a bit and wants it bad, then he should be very good

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
My God I feel old. Only a few years back as well. Goes to show you what happens Draft picks so quickly
He looks oddly confident out there, as if he's been doing it for 10 years already.
His accuracy and not being scared to go for the big plays is quite refreshing. So many young QBs play it safe afraid to make mistakes.
Broncos looked fantastic against the Redskins (who were complete crap). Keenum and Sanders were fantastic. Chad Kelly played the 3rd quarter and looked pretty consistent. Lynch came on in the 4th and was ok, but not nearly as impressive as Kelly.
Obviously very early days but Courtland Sutton and Royce Freeman look like gamers too. Add in Bradley Chubb and it's nice to see draft picks seemingly ready to make an instant impact.
Also our new RB, Emmanuel Sanders
Mayfield does look great. But I’m always hesitant to judge quickly. They can collapse as fast as they rise. And he hasn’t yet really faced a first team defence except against when he replaced TT for a while against Philly and that’s probably his worst spell across the 3 games.
Based purely on Hard Knocks, I’m not yet sure if he has that mentality yet but for the Browns I hope so. He’s certainly got the technical and physical talent.

We can do the losers pool on run my pools @Eboue ,it is much easier to manage
Preseason can be deceptive in terms of how good someone really is. Best to wait about 10 games of regular season action before assessing.
I’d essentially go as far as saying you can’t really judge a player during pre-season except for specific things which are specifically being worked on.
Go ahead
@Rado_N Everytime I see Sloter I wonder why you let him go.
Eagles have been absolutely shit in preseason but NFL pre season seems even worse than soccer pre season. Can't wait for actual football, specially with United being so bad

Because Paxton Lynch is so awesome. Obvs.

Its a shame Troy Fumagalli has been out for the Broncos. Going to be a very good player.
Yes, practice extreme caution on preseaon hype. Ryan Leaf performed very well in August 1998.
Broncos sign Pacman Jones on a one year deal.
Decker has retired.
Pats really need to get some WRs quick!

Dez Bryant
He would be good for some depth.
Would like to see it happen, especially since we’re so limited with offensive options & are 1 Gronk injury away from being fecked.
But I also think he’d struggle to learn the system & not fit in with BB’s ‘Patriot Way’.
Should have kept Dola
Gronk needs to stay fit otherwise we only have midgets to catch the ball with
Also, pls stay away from Dez. I’m sure BB will in any case

So according to those odds, it’s more likely that Mack will be a cheesehead than a Raider after the trade deadline. Can someone explain to me why? This would be completely unlike us and it’s certainly not more likely, than him staying. Or did I miss some rumors?

Only one more Sunday without RedZone for the rest of 2018
Are we sure BB can't do with Dez as he did with Randy Moss?
I say sign him to a one year deal. As mentioned, we can't go into the season with only midgets and slot receivers.

My body is ready
I do think Moss was a lot more mature when Patriots signed him compared to Dez now. There is also a big gap in the talent between the two.
I thought Moss was a "headcase" as well?
Talent wise they're different, no doubt. Just, what are the alternatives?
TO
Dez would be great for Patriots, hope they stay away
Besides Ticket Master, is there anywhere more reasonable where I can buy NFL tickets from (for a game in the states), i.e. for face value?
Resale site is your best bet tbh. I’m sure there’s the unofficial resale’s but unlikely to be any cheaper.
let me know how u get on. am thinking of heading over to Chicago later in year and might try and coincide it with a bears game. Prices seem to be all over the place regards teams
The NFL season can’t start soon enough.
SeatGeek app might be a good bet.
How are the strip clubs there? I only saw of one in the downtown area. Never went inside but it was a massive building. I'm sure Adam will have the scoop in no time.
