How do you like them now ?? Preseason is worthless in the NFL.

Obviously it doesn't mean anything. Kind of funny though, that they'll go from 4-0 in the pre-season to 0-16 in the regular season.

This is a extreme example of perfection and rejection that is going to be hard to duplicate.

I think the Colts either went 0-4 or 1-3 when they won the Superbowl

0-4 and winning the SB is another extreme example. A team wins a SB every year, a team that goes winless is rare.

They were also, I believe, the only 4-0 team, which is very apropos given that they'll now also be the only 0-16 team barring the unforeseen.

We've been over this before. You can' use overall results from the preseason to judge a team. However, how the starters play in preseason is a fairly good indicator of how they'll play in the regular season.

Except in this case, which shows that the preseason is meaningless. If you told me that the lions would go winless after winning all their preseason games, I would of said that's not logical. Which makes the preseason, Illogical.

Its not about how you start but how you finish and we all found that out the hard way this year.

This is my only reason for wanting to watch the PS.
