Your constant delusion will now be all over this website?  Good God.  

It's no worse than all the bullshit that we have to read from the negative fans, Gettleman bashers, and trolls. I enjoy seeing optimism about my team

just kick back, relax and enjoy the game. Not everything has to be looked at with a magnifying glass and evaluated. Also not everything needs a thread. Just a friendly reminder

Dumb question, if he continues the delusion and we're trash this year.  Will you still enjoy it?  Because at that point it's useless.  

Also, optimism is a bit different than delusion.  Which he clearly has.

Players I'm looking forward to seeing:

Cash

Butler

Cap

Hall

the FB group

[The Lobo]

I would like to see something on Hall. I haven't heard much about him except he is having a good camp.

For those of you asking about me evaluating the secondary, I probably won't be of much help. Won't have access to All-22 film since I won't have gamepass for the upcoming season.

I'll only have the live broadcast angle.

It's fine when evaluating runningbacks, quarterbacks (to a certain extent), defensive ends, and wide receivers, but much harder on corners/secondary guys. It's possible, but I won't have the whole picture unless I ask someone for another angle of something.

Defensive End performance and pass rush. This may well define our season.

ie weak point.

[JawnyBlaze]

KB's effort level

Depending on what starters are playing.  Im real curious to see our OTs and OL vs that Texans DL.  We wont see a better duo than Watt and Clowney this year.  So that 1 series the starters play, would really eye ball that matchup

[Cyberjag]

I know we're not going to see anything like our full playbooks out there, and anyone we want to see will be done by the end of the first quarter.  How about looking at some things our coordinators are doing that are different from years past?  I'm particularly interested in any defensive changes.

I think we're all gunna be paying very close attention to CMC and our WR's...I'd be more interested in reading something about our trenches...o-line and d-line

Basically the average fan's eyes will follow the ball. Would love if u were focused more on what we aren't seeing.

Butler and Shepard are interesting to me.  Butler is a first round pick with a ton of upside.  Shepard is a veteran who hasn't had an opportunity at WR.  What these two guys do during the preseason will answer a lot of my questions.  These are the two biggest question marks IMO given their importance and our depth at the position.

I would focus on any new key contributors who weren't here last year. Both rookies and FA signings to evaluate how they are being used and if they are measuring up. Might be a better theme for the entire preseason than just game 1 though.
