Really, I just don't get it. We have to look good - in preseason - on offense against last years number 1 and 2 D's or we are going to have a real poor season, when the only tough D's we play in the regular season are our division(not the AFC West, maybe Carolina and the Saints, not StL or Detroit). If we hold our own, I mean no mental mistakes, JC not being sacked all through the first half, and we can move even a little bit then I would say the season looks good. But, it's silly to pound my head against this mentality of "Performance Now".
The win - loss in this game doesn't matter, what matters is do the coaches and player get closer to being on the same page.
I firmly believe, if a good coach knows exactly what his players can do, and if 53 players all know exactly what is expected of them, then they can come out and beat ANY team in the NFL. I think that's the key to preseason. We will see if they figure it out.
Of course we could always see a Spurrier moment where Zorn plays his starters well into the 3rd quarter, and blows out the Steelers. At least we would all feel good.
