didnt know what to choose...

- poor QB play hurts the team's morale as a whole
- offensive line/running game

but my biggest concern is INJURIES

- LavColes' big toe throughout the whole season, will NEVER be 100%!
- Thomas and Barrow are old men w/ chronic,nagging and very present knee injuries
- Sean Springs has been delicate in his years playing
- DIRTBAG #1

O-line. This is the key to all of the things Gibbs does on offense. They're not playing badly, especially given the Jansen thing, but they've got to be good if we've got a shot at the playoffs this year. So they are the biggest concern. But given the presence of Joe Bugel and Joe Gibbs, I am not worried.

As for the QB play, when we have a proper running game and a solid o-line, both Ramsey and Brunell will be fine. But the star of this offense will be Clinton Portis.

I said poor QB play, but I think it will come around....I almost voted for "it's just preseason". As sloppy as it's been, consider that they have kept it pretty much even for both games....against a good team with a veteran coaching staff that's been there for years, and the NFC champs. Other supposedly good or great teams are being blown out (i.e. Dallas, Philly, etc).
I am concerned about the QB's, but not so much that I'm worried. Brunell is rusty from not playing most of last year, and we all knew that it might take some time for Ramsey to get the "Spurrier-isms" out of his system.
As for the O-line and the running game, it seems like they are just starting to get into a rhythm when they are done. Give them more time in the game, and they will get it together.
