Given the above, I'm not surprised with anything I have seen so far this preseason. I'm not too worried either (maybe a little worried about RGIII's health).

The O-line will get it together. I'm glad they are facing stiff competition early. Not glad they are getting bulldozed, but once the starting five have had a few weeks together I think they will be solid.

The "new" TE's will learn the offense and contribute - hopefully both blocking and receiving. Paul and Paulsen injuries are a real setback here and probably my biggest concern.

The defense will be better with our projected top two pass rushers and starting corners back in there.

I think we have a lot of quality depth which will translate into better special teams play this year.

To sum it up, if Robert can survive the preseason, and we can get all our projected starters back in there for game 1 against Miami, I think we'll be ok.
