Re: JAGS PRE GAME THREAD

Those of you who are using the preseason as a gauge to predict the regular season for the Commanders are way off the mark. Most teams, including ours, play their starters sparingly and show very little of their offense and defense in preseason games.

One season when Joe Gibbs was our coach I was upset about the Redskins preseason performance which was putrid. I asked my wife's opinion and she said "Are you kidding me? This team is loaded! We're going to the Super Bowl this season! Purchase our Super Bowl tickets now." Naturally, I didn't buy the SB tickets and we did go to the SB - and we won it.

This really does feel like a really big opening game considering our franchise's total scenario. Very interested to see how both offenses look. Still think Lawrence will be good. Just get the W Commanders. No excuses.

Let's not forget Spurrier's 4-1 preseason record his first year as coach.

Yep, every since this year, I don't give a shit about win/loss records in pre-season.

We looked amazing that year in the pre-season and we sucked hard.

Agreed. As fans, preseason is for individual players evaluation, nothing more.

I think there are reasons to be optimistic. I'm kinda excited about our O. D feels like a huge question mark, talented roster but hasn't fully gelled together yet.

The Jags are intriguing. I think their roster is better than last year's 3-14. They have their QB, bulked up their Oline and added some weapons (Engram, Kirk)... Not a juggernaut but it'll be a good test for our Defense.

Their D doesn't look that good to me, hopefully it's a good opportunity for our O to show us what they got !

After an offseason where I wined more than any other year, I'm gonna go full Kool Aid and say we win this one 27 - 21 !
