Fans gloom and doom after one preseason game still amazes me.

My doom and gloom will start if we suck in the third preseason game.

Last year we came out against the Giants in the 1st preseason game and punked them! We looked on fire. Went 12-4. The way we played Monday was totally different. I don't care how vanilla we were, we still couldn't tackle, our QB's couldn't hold on to the ball, and Jake did look out of sync. He missed a wide open Moore badly. And the DT situation is worse than I thought it would be. The last time I remember everyone on here complaining about how preseason games were nothing to worry about, we had a losing season. The wins in preseason really don't matter to me either, but we just looked pathetic. And does anyone else think that our players looked really small compared to the Giants? I'm afraid this team is going to get pushed around a lot. And the caliber of teams we will be playing this year will be just like what we saw Monday. We don't have any gimme's this year boys. Could be a bumpy ride.

We played the Colts in the first preseason game last year, not the Giants. And then we followed up a win against the Colts with a lackluster performance against the Eagles in preseason game number 2.

We say this every year, and every year its correct. Preseason performance, even with the first teamers, means nothing irt how the season will go. Nothing, nada, not a dam thing. Preseason is about evaluating talent, getting ready for the new season and learning new schemes and plays (especially on our defense). Thats all it means.
