No need to panic yet. Wait til after preseason game #3 and if the same trend continues then start to panic. Thing is our secondary thus far looks like a sieve, if they can tighten up by the regular season we should be OK, but if they are going to be a leaky sieve during preseason, why think things will be much diiferent when the games really count?

If anything we have been exposed as having major depth problems.

wow im shocked JC was ineffective. lol

why dont they keep him in longer during pre-season games? apparently he has a looooong learning curve.

we'll need turnovers by the defense this year to get some starting field position, because if you think JC is going to drive us 80 yards, you havent watched any games the last 2+ years. I know, blame it on injuries to the O-line and changing coordinators . . blah blah blah.

I agree,why does everyone cry about the changes in offense,no chemistry and yada yada but when the preseason comes around he is in for 6 passes and calls it a night? Obviousley he needs more reps vs a defense other than ours. IMO The starters on O need to be out there until they show signs of getting it together. If they arent clicking now i dont want to wait till week 1 and see if it magically comes together vs the Gmen

I agree with you here DBUCH, but it also has a trickle down effect on the line. If you are going to keep the QB in, you have to keep his offensive line in as well. At some point, chemistry be damned, it's the preseason.

I'm just not sure that point should be after two drives.

I would have liked JC to be out there for more than two series, but it was the first game. I hope and expect that as the preseason progress, we can see more of the entire first-team offense out there. (I'm agreeing with you too...are you brainwashing us? LOL.)

WTH's going on here? I'm agreeing too! It's getting to be total chaos around here!

We're being brainwashed by logic. I'm too tired to resist.

anytime you're shut out in a football game its a sign of being at rock bottom. I was also disappointed in Colt Brennan, but he was in the game with 3rd and 4th team players.
