My concerns..?
I have none...

Our 1st team Defense not only has been vanilla,but has been rotating guys in & out of the Preseason with MAYBE the exception to the 3rd game against the Jets. OK..we let a HOFer look good at the age of 31,so the run D didn't look great even though I just mentioned the rotation and vanilla. Oh yea..Who was the #1 rushing team last season? Yet, we still managed to create a bunch of turnovers and made Sanchez look REALLY bad despite their ability to be successful running the ball.

We finally have a Kicker who doesn't force me to bite my nails everytime he lines up to kick the ball.
Is he Adam Viniterri..? No,but the guy booms the balls out of the endzone and I see Confidence on his face. That's enough for me...

Our return game? lol..Even without Banks..it's got to be better than Sideways Randel El...

Allthough our run blocking has not beenthat great at all,I'm not concerned. It's preseason and we have THE BEST coach at running the ball. I'll worry,if it carries over to regular season,but I will not worry about it now.

Our Pass protection on the 1st unit has been VERY good. Not perfect and still need to work on it,but I love the fact that our QB actually looks down the field and even delivers the pass. Not just Mcnabb,but even Grossman as well.

I predicted we will drop 40 pt's on Dallas in a week. I stand by that...

If I had to come up with a reason..just to make you happy about a concern I have...It would be the fumbles and turnovers..Although the majority has been from the 2nd and 3rd teams..I do not like that.

But then again..I feel like we have caused more turnovers in 4 preseason games than we have in 5 years total...lol
So take the good with the bad I guess...

But one thing I can confidentally tell everyone right now...

If we matched up this years team of offense and defense and coaches...VS.... last years team and coaches...

I would bet the farm that the score would not be like 6 of our losses were last season by 7 points or less...

I would give myself a 10 pt spread,that this team takes care of buisness.
and it's not even close imo...
