Thoughts on the game

Cooley and Portis were our two biggest offensive weapons last year, and they were both GONE for this PREseason game.

obviously, Gibbs was using this game to just evaluate the air game, and Ramsey was calling plays and making throws he WOULDN'T be doing in a real game!

he was without his two biggest options, and both Ramsey and Gibbs now know what works when in the air and what doesn't. isn't that the POINT of a preseason game? to see the limits of specific parts of your team?

apparently they weren't even going over the middle (why injure our small recievers?). to expect a one-dimensional offense, blindfolded (no Portis) and one arm behind your back (no Cooley) against a first team defense (a Marvin Lewis defense no less) with no incidents seems reaaaally short sighted.
