    Time for the FIRST STRING to turn it up

    Practice is over, time to get ready to play for real.
    First string against first string, has got to improve.
    Our depth seems pretty good at some positions, a good sign for our future.
    We need to work hard, and open it up a little more.
    GO BILLS!

    you're right, no good team has ever looked bad in the pre-season.

              well, the pre-season does mean everything.

                  Here's the thing about preseason: Teams aren't trying to win. The game plan is different, the playcalling is different, and the regular-season intensity is not there, except for guys who are trying to make the team. For secure veterans, nothing is at stake. It's a scrimmage.

                    nope, you can determine everything about a team from training camp reports and the first two pre-season games.

                      I agree it doesnt mean much but to see our D on that first drive was painful to watch, absolutely no pass rush and no run stopping ability. We got pushed around like school girls. We may not be trying to win, but we got ***** slapped by the Falcons whose 1st team also wasnt trying to win.

                        That's the status quo

                          I didn't see the game, so I'm just going by the reports here - granted I'm not encouraged, but I simply won't write off the season because we haven't had great showings yet - I'm not accusing others of doing that, but I've seen some conclusions drawn that seem a bit premature.

                          Everything may go to hell in the season, but I'm not going to freak out yet.

                            preseason not meaning crap means we haven't seen the worst of it yet.
