HUGE difference from 2009 preseason to 2010 present!

Stats mean jack in preseason.

Your better off looking at the games themselves....

Look at the QB position and how there is better decision making. Look at the WR's and how they are getting seperation at the line of scrimmage, how they throw off the defender now with suttle moves for which Hixon failed to teach. The defense which was touted by both G.Williams and Blache to be a blitzing machine and ball hawking scheme, yet failed to get a good blitz and failed to create turnovers. I was very against Haslett with the understanding that his Rams and Saints sucked at defense. Hopefully I'm wrong and the defense continues to shine.

If there's been one recurring pattern about Redskins exhibition seasons of late, it's that when we look good (Osaka) it doesn't mean much. But if we look bad, we'll probably be bad in the regular season.


Exactly my sentiments. We don't look bad at all, but there is room for improvement come Sept12th. Many bright spots with individual perfromances, as well as unit performances, but our run D is lacking,and our run O looks dreadful. I know we have played the top Ds for the past 2 games, but still, you have to break some for more than a yard or two gain.

SBXXVII is right, you have to look at each game by themselves, and also look at the individual and unit performances by themselves also. Preseason is just practice and an audition roled up into one within real game conditions.

Chill out guys, all he is saying is there is a difference this year so far. Pre season isn't important but the effort of this team is. We have a new attitude going in to this season. Were tired of being the underdog in this division. In 2 weeks we will see a new era of solid football. No more laughing stock bull shit

^^ Agreed Skins. This team is much improved over what it looked like last year.

Also to all those who say preseason doesn't matter in terms of wins and loses that is true, but at the same time like some one else said, if we look bad in the preseason we most likely carry that over to the regualar season where it does count.

We do have a passing attack this year.

The running game is up in the air but I will wait to determine how this is going to be come the regular season.

The Offensive line is holding up well in pass protection, preseason or not a hat on a hat blocking is nice to see.

I like the thread, but maybe not all the stats as most of us have seen them, but this does bring up a good topic to discuss.

I'm still not sold on Haslett's D. Hopefully we are both wrong.

Pre Season is what it is. An evaluation of depth.

Exactly. A massive WHO CARES. The Colts have lost 22 of their last 26 preseason games. And all they do is win 12+ every year. Steve Spurrier kicked major preseason ass. Meaningless.

Uh, we are NOT the Colts.....

Uh, we are NOT the Colts.....

Uh, that wasn't his point
