Re: What are you looking for vs the Lions?

No f_ing injuries occupies the top ten slots on my wish list. Otherwise, let's just see progress on both sides of the ball -- oh, and teams (which aside from Kai's FG were pretty bad).

Improved defensive back play and I want to see our oline play well again.

Right side OL.
RG3 progression.
Front 7 pressure on their OL.
More quality runs by Jones.

Griffin throwing about 12 times, no sacks, good rush

Re: What are you looking for vs the Lions?

I'm likely in the minority on this one, but I'd like to see the starters for at least two series. I'd like to see RG3 and KC split those series. I would like to see how KC looks with and vs. starters and RG3 with/vs the exact same group.

that's exactly what the skins are trying to avoid though.

Why? I hear all the talk about people earning their spots. Let's see two guys compete with similar circumstances.

they're either protecting their investment or protecting his fragile ego or whatever, but they've done everything possible to avoid any kind of QB competition, for whatever reason.

I don't agree with it, i think the best guy should play, regardless, but i'm not running the team.

Re: What are you looking for vs the Lions?

The secondary, QB, and Oline play is what Ill watch tonight. I thought the secondary left alot to be desired....Id like Jarrett to get some reps with the starters.

DHall question mark is bigger after the first game

I doubt that Key will play with the first unit but he certainly looked good both in the slot and at S. I thought on the whole the second unit S were more active then the 1st unit.

DHall looked like he wasn't 100% in football shape, and I hope that's all it was knocking off some rust because Hall can play much better then he looked last game.

Re: What are you looking for vs the Lions?

I'm a bit torn about Gruden's decision to have RG3 throw twice a fade pattern that has not work in camp.

Part of me thinks, yes, this is what preseason is all about, practicing something difficult in a real-time game situation.

But part of me is like, let's get RG3 and the offense comfortable and practicing things that work during the preseason, especially in an area that was a challenge last year (redzone scoring).

I'm leaning more towards the latter. I'd like to see RG3 and the offense have a complete TD drive. With no gimmicks or nothing too complicated. Let's get the offense going and working.

Re: What are you looking for vs the Lions?

I'm going to be looking at the offensive line, Griffin, Jones, and the backup safeties. I thought Robinson played well against Cleveland, gonna be interesting to see which safeties make the final roster.
