One thing that stands out right away. 3 of the 4 leading receivers are from the much talked about F-back position. I would defer to the guys who actually saw the team's scrimmage with their own eyes but on paper it sure appears coaches are paying close attention to this position.
Also would have been interesting to know whether any of the QBs had rushing yardage. I imagine they were scrambling around a bit when opportunities presented themselves but couldn't find any numbers on that. Speaking of numbers, the passing yardage was especially impressive from Richard Brehaut who had this to say about his performance with Jon Gold:
The way Brehaut has stepped up in recent days has been pretty cool. Let's hope rest of his team-mates are taking their cues from him on how to take advantage of opportunities of added reps during these practices.
GO BRUINS.

There were a few good qb runs
There was one in particular that really showed off the run threat that our qb can can be this year. Brehaut (I think) really sold the fake well on an outside handoff to the left. The defender totally bought it and drilled what he thought was the runner. Whoever that was on defense that bought the fake must have had contain responsibility because there was nobody out there. Brehaut runs for an easy 15 or so yards down the left side.
Even with the little bit he played last year
It has always seemed to me that RB has a better touch, and better accuracy than KP, with more upside.
But I don’t have a dog in the fight, whichever one gets the job done is fine with me.
GO BRUINS!
The criticism of Brehaut
has been his composure and pocket presence, not his ability to throw. I gotta say though, he looked pretty darn composed at the scrimmage.
agree
His footwork is pretty good though, I also see incredible upside in RB. I feel that if he has to step in, the potential to succeeded is there. As opposed to our other backups in previous years. And yea with cnc leading the group, I feel even better

My question
has never been about his mechanics (throwing motion or footwork). The issue last year was his inability to feel the walls closing in around him. The guy just seems to disregard the rush. Last time I saw him was at the spring game and this still seemed like a problem then. I hope his instincts are starting to catch up with his mechanics.
And I don't think we'll know until he's in a game.
He has looked so much better. But even in scrimmage, he can’t get hit, so the pressure is a bit less. On the other hand, he did seem to be making better decisions than I would have expected.
Go Bruins!
correct
Its an interesting point because playing quarterback, you usually develope that internal clock of three seconds and then get rid of the ball or tuck and run. So I can’t argue he was thinking to much or just trying to create something that wasn’t there. Should be interesting to see how he looks with another year under his belt.
