I can't speak to what percentages the offense played with, either in terms of effort or percentage of the offense utilizes. If I had to guess, the effort was 100% and the playbook percentage was very little. But I agree the offense looked disjointed. Granted, it IS preseason, and it's unlikely the Patriots would be held to 10 points this year like they were against Carolina. But I was still hoping to see more from those guys. I'm glad they seemingly emerged from the game relatively healthy, though I am concerned about Chark.
Speaking of Chark, like you, I too was hopeful that he and Cole would rebound to having a big year this year. If they can, and the team remains healthy, we can have a good run.
I think it was half wanting to stay healthy but also get some real hits so it's a tough line.
I dont think well see much in the last preseason game so cuts will be the next big step. I know I've struggled a bit with this preseason but I get the process but I'm thinking we may need to have some patience with the O. I want them to come out firing week 1 but we have a new QB, new OC, new system, it's going to take a few games for things to start clicking.
I just cant get Cole. Makes that wonder catch against the Pat's and has been down ever since. Is it confidence? I'm interested to see if they play game 4.
