Re: No love for Ol' DC
Gil Brandt, who I really respect a lot, but some really gruesome statistics on preseason out there. He said while the score and outcome don't matter, the way you play the game really does. Execution is key, having some sort of momentum moving into the system is also really nice. Players know it's preseason, but they still start questioning.
The Super Bowl champs over the last 13ish seasons are 39-13 in the preseason. It was about a week or week and a half ago, don't remember everything. While preseason "means" nothing, you should never overlook just complete lack of production like the Redskins saw. I'm sorry, we were Vanilla, but so was everyone else. They had no problems scoring. Simple throws, etc. Hopefully our offense can turn it on with a switch, but I doubt it. This division top to bottom will be seperated by no more than 3 games. If you told me the Redskins won it at 10-6 or 11-5 (doubt any team in our div goes 11-5) or lost it at 8-8 or 7-9. I wouldn't be the least bit suprised either way.
