I'm not that concerned if our offense is moving the ball that well (7-9 first downs) against a good defense.

Also if we can move the ball that well TD's and points will come. Our offense though will simply not come that far in just one game.


Points, to me, are still irrelevant. Our offense needs to prove it can build long sustaining drives and keep our defense resting off the field. That is what I'll need to see tonight.

Moving the ball is nice but points are the name of the game. The points never came last year and its essentially the same offense this year. They cant wait until week 7 to start scoring points, they gotta be ready to go on week 1 and that readiness starts in preseason.
