BBS lists guys that need to do some work Thursday night. I think he’s overstating Brandstander’s case a bit, but he’s not entirely wrong either. Either way, he’ll survive the first cut. They’ll need him to play in the Bengals game.
Brandstater might get a few more reps in this third preseason game. Painter has played a lot in in the first two, and in both he has not looked good. The third game should give Tom a chance to show he can manage the offense. Maybe the coaches will give him a shot with the second string. If he out-performs Painters while conducting the second string offense, he’ll have made his case to win the back-up QB job.
