...Yeah, Sean Taylor should officially move past Andre Lott into the first team.
...Was it just me, or did Joe Gibbs at times look as if he wondered what he'd gotten himself back into?
...I noticed the 26-36-56 jersey thing too. Too bad #76 won't be a part of that sequence this year.
...Cornelius Griffin looked pretty good at times and broke into the backfield. The pocket seemed to collapse frequently when the starters were in. Overall, it did not appear that the defensive line, judging only from last night mind you, would be the problem we all thought it would be. But it's a long season.
...Offensive production is a concern. Brunell, 4 for 8 and 18 yards? Come on, I know they've only been in camp for a little over a week, but still, the running game never really got on track, and the wideouts never really were a factor. Obviously, they need more reps.
...Actually, I don't necessarily want teams to be afraid of Shawn Springs. Teams were afraid of Champ Bailey, and the downside of that is we didn't see as many interceptions. This team desperately needs to get into the plus column of the turnover ratio. Hopefully, Springs, Smoot, Taylor and Bowen will help us get there.
