I expect a lot of bridge jumpers tomorrow

[HAMMER]

Those of you hoping to see an offensive explosion tonight are going to be disappointed. We are facing the leagues No. 1 ranked defense from last year. I can't wait for all the know it alls to tell me how bad my team stinks tomorrow. I think I am going to go the Thurm route and avoid this forum until the regular season kicks off.

If you havent noticed, we're not looking for an offensive "explosion". i think most of use will be happy to see an offensive "sparkler".

Re: I expect a lot of bridge jumpers tomorrow

I just want to see something that makes me think this O has improved. They don't have to be dominant- they just have to run move the ball a little and not look completely lost out there like they did on Saturday.

Those who think the offense is bad now because it's "only preseason" and expect it to be better once the real games start are the ones who will be disappointed.

JP provided an offensive sparkle last week... and that didn't satisfy the thumb sucking crowd... SO I serioulsy doubt a sparkle would do anything to satisfy the nancies.

I personally need to see a running game, that has me worried. And no I do not believe Peters makes the difference there.

Re: I expect a lot of bridge jumpers tomorrow

I dont expect us to look like the Chargers of the 1980's offensively, but I expect to see some improvement. Preseason, regular season, playoffs. It's still us against them. And if we're going to keep low expectations because we're playing better teams, then I guess we should be prepared for yet another 7-or-so win season.

if we're going to be a good football team, we have to start finding ways to have success against the good teams. Understood it's just a preseason game and it matters far less; but it would be nice to see the offense start doing good things by habit; not just against the Bengals of the league.

JP is not the starting QB so how is what JP does in preseason supposed to satisfy those who want to see our STARTERS resemble some kind of productive offense. Now the one thing you could take from it is that the plays that JP are running (such as the TD to Hardy and the 2 point conversion pass) shows that at least our offensive gameplan is showing some success. But at the same time, it's showing that it works with JP, we haven't seen it work with Trent.

Re: I expect a lot of bridge jumpers tomorrow

I’m more interested in how our defense looks with Whitner and Crowell back in the lineup, especially in the first quarter against the Steelers first team.

Since it’s pretty obvious our defense will have to be lights out this year for the team to have success, I’m anxious to see how they look tonight.

Because JP is going to be on the bench. Most of the guys he was playing with will also be on the bench. Most of the guys they were playing against will be on the Redskins bench. The starting O needs to show something against their starting D.

Really, I can't believe I have to explain this.

Turk is not ready to unveil his top secret high powered better than K-Gun offense. You'll have to wait for the Studward Offense til' the seahawks game.
