Kind of slow for the largest part.
My key points:

1. Tyreek Hill is an absolute freak of nature. Never in my life have I seen anyone even remotely play like him. I felt like I was watching an alien. He gets so low in his turns and the power and burst out of his turns is mind-blowing.
2. Connor Williams at Center is the biggest travesty. Many high snaps. Please god, trade for a Center.
3. Skylar Thompson looks better than Bridgewater in every way. And I'm a Teddy fan.
4. Chase Edmonds is a beast. Gaskin and Ahmed will not make this team. Mostert ran one play for 12+ yards. FYI: Mostert is currently the fastest RB in the league
5. Our defensive front is disgusting. They had at least 5 sacks and they blew up anything outside not involving Waddle.
6. Van Ginkle had the Orange Jersey. Great sign.
7. Tua, started slow but he had some amazing throws. He threw 2 TDs to Hill. Also a high snap that Tua grabbed and instantly released for a 15 yard gain up the middle in insane traffic. Also Tua threw a dime to Hill on the sidelines that was pure perfection.
Below are a couple pics. We got Hill and Holland sigs.
The female is my best friend's wife. The other pic my boy John.

I want to add that Tua looks fast and sharp in the pocket. Tua's shoulder shakes and movement is impressive.
Bridgewater seemed like he was in slow-motion in compare.
Skylar Thompson is a fearless Gunslinger that made plays and great calm in the pocket.
 
Edmonds def had that Bellcow vibe. Sadly, when they ran plays with Gaskin and Ahmed stuff went downhill quick. Our D looks disgusting. One play they tried a pitch outside but our D annihilated it sending Ingold flying. Teams are not gonna be able to go outside vs us with the run.

What was your early impression of Doaksy and LaQuandre White?

(If you got to see them get any reps)
 
I don't know if they saw a down. I could've missed it cause there was some really cool fans near us and we were talking a lot. My memory is no runs from Doaks and White.
Essentially it was mainly Edmonds killing it. Saw Mostert once and he had a huge gain right side. Then they put in Gaskin for 4 plays and did nothing. Then they put in use Ahmed for 3-4 runs. Again, absolutely no gains. There was one play the D-line just let Ahmed thru even tho he could've been crushed. Our Defensive front looks like a wall of pain and destruction.
Another take away is, I don't think it's possible to cover Hill. X did an awesome job but holy **** Hill is not coverable. You gotta see him in person. Hill is awe inspiring.
 
I also want to add that Holland was signing autographs; he got to me and I said "can I get a fist bump". I got my fist bump. I wish I had something for him to sign. I didnt wanna ask him to sign my man-titts, lol.
My friend's wife got Tyreek sig cause guy next to us had huge Cheetah cardboard thingy that drew him in.
Hill looks like a ball of cast-iron.
 
Other takeaway is that according to reports, Noah Igbinoghene is making some good plays each day of training camp, competing hard against the very talented Jaylen Waddle. After being confined with a muzzle to the Flo doghouse for the previous 2 seasons, Byron Jones' extended post surgery absence has given Noah the chance to get some confidence restored. Getting a lot more playing time, making a sack and completing an interception in the past 2 days are some encouraging signs that Noah is making progress. He even got the opportunity to answer questions from the media the other day. When was the last time we saw Noah allowed to do that? Make no mistake, Igbinoghene is a Coach McDaniel attempted restoration project for the likes of coaches, Sam Madison and Pat Surtain. For all of the Dolphin fans who had written Noah off as a bust, let's wait and see how this unfolds.

Doesn't our D-line look great every year, if for no other reason, because they are going against our O-line?
