predict our preseason record

I know that preseason means little to nothing in the scheme of things. Still what else is there to do this time of year.

I actually think we will do pretty well this preseason. Why? Because our second and third string quarterbacks will be better than our opposition. Plus we will have a bunch of guys very hungry to make the team who will be giving their all.

I think we will go 3-1.

What say you and why????

I expect quarterback play will be above the competition, which will make up for mediocre wide receiver play (and perhaps mask a legitimate problem.) On defense we will get no interior pressure but the defensive ends will surprise us a little. Good pass defense, shaky against the run.

possibly 2-2, probably 3-1.

It is probably going to be difficult to win just 1 game. The Ravens and Jets are both going to be top 3 AFC teams this year(along with the Colts). the Titans are just an average team other than the run game, which could be hard to stop, idk we'll see. And the Steelers won't have Big Ben and they dont have that much "decent" depth at WR, so they are probably going to run the ball alot, and their run defense is always good. I see us going 2-2, beating the Steelers and Titans.

I am hoping for 0-4 so the team comes out into the regular season knowing for sure how much work needs to be done.

The opposite could happen. They do well in the preseason because our backups are better than other teams backups, and we think we are further ahead than we are. Everyone gets excited and we find out the reality when everyone starts to gameplan and play their starters.

4-0. Yes, I'm serious.

We have some quality depth at quarterback (it would seem) and running back, as well as some emerging players on defense. I really think we're going to surprise some folks in the preseason.

I definitely acknowledge the potential of this happening:

2-2.

I don't think the pre-season matters.

2008 the lions went 4-0 in the pre-season and went 0-16 lol.

It matters very much in that you get to see your team's strengths and weaknesses, and also the positions which have the most and least depth. But you're right that the win-loss record doesn't matter a bit.

    • There was some pretty egregious missed calls vs the Chiefs in the Lions game, especially Kelce. The completion where he clearly used the ground to catch the ball. The hold in front of the ref as Pacheco ran by where the defender was trying to turn around and couldnt because Kelce had him by the jersey. Mahomes openly taunting after scoring a TD. 0 penalties after double digit the week before. Cmon. 
    • People get trade happy and look at resources as barter items. They fail to see them as resources to be used to our benefit rather than someone else's. Right now, Chuba and Rico are massive benefits to us and a strong rushing attack so greatly benefits any passer, much less a young one like Bryce still is.  And the better our running game, the more our offense can eat up the clock, the less time our defense is on the field. And that is priceless, too. Don't mess with the running game. Don't mess with the receivers. Maybe look at our O-line and think we may have hit on something good during these injuries. Look at our D-line and seem some strength evolving there. Our secondary has its good spots and some that are still developing. Our linebacking corps did well this last outing. Our special teams are on a major upswing as of this past week. Heck, even our QB is showing us a little something right now that we can build on. Perhaps putting out a yard sale sign right now might be less advantageous than looking at the team and saying, "You are all part of something good that is happening. We want to see that continue to grow."
