FATTEST GUY IN NFL SCORES TD | MADDEN 15 BLOWOUT GAME | RANKED PS4
Eric Hartline-USA TODAY Sports
Let"s recap Thursday night"s preseason action.
How about a little Friday morning football talk? Yes, there is real football to discuss, or at least something like it, the preseason form. We"ll have more analysis and overreaction to Thursday"s games, but here"s a quick rundown.
Broncos 22, Bears 0
Mark Sanchez looked like himself, throwing an INT and a touchdown and making the first pass attempt of the game with an ugly left-handed throw. Paxton Lynch made thebest throw of the night.
Everything about the Bears was bad in this game.
Jaguars 13, Jets 17
Todd Bowles wasn"t too excited about the win, but he did havegood things to say about rookie Darron Lee,who recorded a sack.
Fans were very excited aboutwhat they saw from Jacksonville"s marquee defensive additions.
Panthers 19, Ravens 22
Cam Newton got really excited about an INT ...too excited.
Ravens running back Terrance West lived up to the preseason hype.
Saints 22, Patriots 34
This Garoppolo kid might be okay.
Saints rookie Michael Thomas just keeps making amazing catches.
Buccaneers 9, Eagles 17
Fans werecalling for Wentz early in the second quarter, and they weren"t disappointed when he finally came in. The rookieshowed off some athleticism and gave fans what they wanted.His flip was especially impressive. In reality, Wentz looked a little rough, going 12-for-24 for 89 yards, but it is just the preseason.
Tampa"s kicker may have gotten off to a rough start, butthe defensive line looks ready to go. Jameis Winston looked like he"s beenworking on his footwork and mechanics during the offseason.
Washington 17, Falcons 23
The Falcons won, butthe starting offense looked like they thought it was still June. Not backup QB Matt Schaub though, he was aces.
We know Washington"s offense is going to be fine, but Thursday"s gameoffered some hope for the defense, too.

BRADY SPARS WITH LEGRAND:Tom Brady talks trash to (then praises) Eric LeGrand after Rutgers legend visits Patriots. Eric LeGrand delivers message of hope to Patriots, Saints ... then Rutgers alums spar with Michigan alum Tom Brady
SIEMIAN STARTING NEXT WEEK: Gary Kubiak won"t confirm who"s starting next week, but it"s expected thatTrevor Siemian will start in the Broncos" second preseason game. Thursday"s game wasn"t enough to decide the Broncos QB situation.
INJURY REPORT: Patriots rookie WR Malcolm Mitchell suffers dislocated elbow. It was a gruesome looking injury, but, somehow, he"s only going to be out 3-6 weeks.
PAUSE FOR GREATNESS: Ravens, Panthers stop preseason game to watch Michael Phelps win 22nd gold medal. Both teams wanted to watch the GOAT.
DOG SHOW: The Chicago Bears had a "ruff" night, but these dogs doing frisbee tricks were great. At least there was the halftime show!
NEW ENGLAND STILL LOVES BRADY:Patriots cheerleaders spell out giant "B-R-A-D-Y" on the field to open the preseason. There is no question how the team feels about the suspended quarterback.
YOU BEST NOT MISS:Bucs" second-round kicker missed his first NFL kick. Roberto Aguayo never missed an extra point in college, which is part of the reason the Buccaneers traded up to get him.
