Give me a frikkin break!
Lets do some simple math here.
Young QB+starting RT out for most of a quarter+no game planning+very good opposing defense= offensive sputtering.
Not that tough to understand.
How quickly we all forget about the MASSIVE difference in play between the preseason and the regular season. HMMMMM, If we do a little thing called game planning and exploit the opposing teams weaknesses on D, we might gain yards and points. What a concept!
How many times do we watch teams go 1 nd 3 in the preseason and then get deep into the playoffs? THE PRESEASON MEANS JACK SQUAT!
You want to have something to worry about? Heres what it AINT:
1) JP Losman- made plays all preseason. I can count on 1 hand how many mistakes he has made in 3 games now. Accurate, arm like a friggin bazooka, great pocket presence, doesnt take many sacks, makes plays when everything goes to crap. Flutie with height and arm like Manning, HMMMMM. And he hasnt started a single regular season game...and this is a bad thing? NOT
2) Defense- So let me see, we have given up 2 TD's in 3 games with our starting D. We have taken 2 turnovers back for TD's, have had tons of sacks, and held teams to like nothing as far as yards. Worrying/off.
Things to watch with some apprehension:
1) McGahee- I can barely even say this because last season showed I should no better. But, seems to be going down a touch too easy and isnt getting yards at TD's like we would hope. Is he simply playing down because its preseason? Maybe, see Sam Adams and others.
2) Bennie Anderson- Seems to get way too many penalties. Very fixable.
3) OL depth- after Duke Preston and maybe Jason Peters we got jack squat far as I can see. Greg Jerman should be watching NFL games from a redneck bar with toothless women hammered off his a_s. He seriously might be the worst O-lineman I have ever seen. He makes Corey Louchey look like Orlando Pace.
Thats it. What the hell is the problem?
Our QB is better than last year, our OL is a bit worse but will jell with time, McGahee should be at least as good as last year. Our D looks to be even better than last year, our special teams are stellar. Add it all up and we have a very very good shot to make the playoffs.
Yet the world is ending? Because we do ZERO game planning against a good D, basically play a pickup game, move the ball at times but fail to score a TD in a preseason game?
Your right, Im about to commit suicide because I found out that the equipment manager has a hang nail!
