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.

      Why? AI already taking jobs, running up power bills, drinking all the water and just bad for the environment but hey lest try to shoehorn another useless way to use it.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      I'm going rogue in R1 but there's so much confusion around us. Last year, we were going Walker or Williams and caught folks off guard with TMac. The previous year we LOVED Legette and it was no surprise when his name was called. This year, I think we nail three areas that weren't totally addressed in FA.  R1 - Kayden McDonald Full disclosure, I want Thienemann here, but think he goes before 19. Some might see an "overdraft" but McDonald unlocks so many people on our D. Having a DT the caliber of McDonald let's Lloyd, Wallace and the newly drafted Hill flood the offensive backfield. Also opens up Moehrig and our EDGES to eat. Lastly, it also removes all the pressure on DB to be the primary facilitator in the trenches and A'Shawn will be missed. I don't care about Turk. McDonald is the only true DT worth of a R1 grade and Morgan seals up our trenches here w/ a kid from a blue blood school. R2 - Anthony Hill Jr *trade up*  I love JRod, but think a smart team takes him at the end of R1 (Seattle, NE w/ two d-minded coaches). Hill, Jr is a beast and lost in the shuffle with all the Styles/Allen/Rodriguez hype. He and Lloyd with DB and McDonald up front and flanked by Scourton/Phillips is nasty.  R3 - Hecht/Lew/Center du jour Let's stop the madness with ignoring this position in the draft. We need one and should start normalizing the capital invested in our OL with someone on a draft contract. He won't need to start day 1, but I think the right selection will push for starter reps. R4 - Bud Clark Not sure if he's here in R4 where we pick, but would fit the "type" of FS/roamer that we need opposite Moehrig and Ransom. Allows us to run 3-safety looks and really keep teams guessing with personnel packages. R5 - Kendrick Law The kind of WR we need. IDK if he's any different than Horn, Jr or Metchie but Law could be a dart throw that brings a deep threat to our WR corps I'm guessing one of the R5 picks is used to move up in R2 along with a '27 day 3 pick.   Post-draft, I sign Njoku to bring in a vet at TE. I'm also keeping my eyes open for pre-week 1 team cuts for a young CB that we could bring in to maybe plan for Mike Jack's departure next year. Flame away.... I know the McDonald pick will not make people happy.
