Pre-Season only 6 weeks out, how do you think we will do in our Pre-Season debut?
 

With our first Pre-Season game only 6 weeks out, how do you think we will start this season in our Pre-Season games?

8.11 vs. Titans
8.18 vs. Steelers @ Home
8.25 vs. Ravens @ Home
8.30 vs. Jags

I think it is going to be very important for us to come out and win some Pre-Season games right outta the gates, make a BIG statement! We saw what last years AWEFUL Pre-Season lead to, it carried over to a horrible season.

I truely believe we are MUCH improved on both sides of the ball, even if JC gets no respect, he will earn it this year and prove many wrong IMO.

With that said I feel we will win at least 3 of the 4 Pre-Season games.

We are not to far out, It's getting close to the real thing REDSKIN FANS!

I don"t really care about the final scores, but I do think that our first team offense is going to turn a lot of heads by being crisp and efficient in the first quarter of the first game.

Yup I agree with dj but one thing I'm most concerned about is injuries, I hope none of our players wld be seriously injured..

Re: Pre-Season only 6 weeks out, how do you think we will do in our Pre-Season debut?
 

I just care about no injuries as well and for our first team offense and defense to come out kicking major booty!

Re: Pre-Season only 6 weeks out, how do you think we will do in our Pre-Season debut?
 

DJNEMO is corrrect. The final score is not important. How the first teams perform is. I would like to see them show a little more complexity with the offense.

Re: Pre-Season only 6 weeks out, how do you think we will do in our Pre-Season debut?
 

I think we have heard that there will be a big emphasis on winning more in the preseason. I expect to see the offense looking much better just because they have a year under thier belt and because we have some quality depth.

Defensively, I wonder if we start seeing the same thing we saw last year. Has Williams changed his defense so much that he doesn't want to give anything away? In the past, vanilla defense has been a bad thing for our defensive guys. They have needed scheme to cover for certain problems.

Anyway, I can't wait. Just a few more weeks until the waiting is over!

Sorry, gotta disagree here. There will be some injuries during the season and the performance of the second team will tell us a lot about how we are going to hold up when they happen. Yeah, third and fourth team stuff doesn't count, but the second team most certainly does.

Re: Pre-Season only 6 weeks out, how do you think we will do in our Pre-Season debut?
 

Preseason is just "real time" practice. We should always go for the win, but preseason records means jack. We can go 0-4, but if we execute well and get the kinks out of Saunders system and everyone is on the same page come our game with the Dolphins we should be good to go. you don't want to go all out either or you will suffer preseason injuries which seem to always happen to a few unlucky teams every year.

Who gives a flying poo?
The Cowboys went winless in the preseason in one of their super bowl wins, and I beleive 3 or 4 teams have gone winless in the preseason and won it all. I do not watch the preseason cause it gives us false hope.
Remember when the Skins went 4-1 in the preseason and we scored the most points EVER in the preseason...oh yeah, it was the first year of the SPurrier era / debacle. How did we do in the regular season?????

PRESEASON IS COMPLETELY USELESS.

Yeah, I'm gonna have to go ahead and disagree with you as well. Who cares if Mark Brunell goes 8 for 10 against the backups? We know what he can do (and can't do). We know what Betts can do. We know what Omar Stoutmire can do. And the players we don't know about will be going against other scrubs so it won't tell us much about how they would do against starters either.

I suppose if the second team destroys the other second team in a big way you could jump to some conclusions but I want to see the first team dominate. To me, that's where its at.

While I don't agree with "completely useless" entirely, wins certainly don't count here. Get the first team some game reps and let the backups show who can deliver at game speed rather than practice speed.

And for God's sake, tell CP to lay down if there's an interception while he's on the field!

Only 6 weeks. The countdown is on.

no INJURIES!!!

Well, at least drop it to 2 games. 4 games is dumb, and basically no one is trying other than the players on the bubble...they are just trying to get into "game shape".

LOL.

Re: Pre-Season only 6 weeks out, how do you think we will do in our Pre-Season debut?
 

I'd like to see the first team working well on both sides of the ball, as well as a good showing by the cornerbacks and receivers of the second team. It would also be nice if someone on the second-team offensive line looked solid.
