This feels like the longest preseason to me. I'm sure it's partly because we started training camp before anyone else in the NFL this year, and partly because we started the preseason before anyone else with the HOF game.
But at the same time I think my appetite for football gets bigger every year. I just thank goodness we play the first game of the regular season!
Does this preseason seem like it's taking forever to you guys?

It's better than not having any football at all. that's the worse... I'll take seeing redskins anyway I can get it

this day feels like it's taking forever, so yes, the preseason seems like it's been going on WAY too long.
Of course the irony is that come February (after we win the Super Bowl) we'll all be complaining that the season went by too quickly.

I wouldn't go that far, yet.

Definitely agree Schneed. And then on the one hand it's great we get to start our regular season four days before everyone else (but the Giants)...but then we have to wait a week and a half for game 2...sigh

The NFL should play a 162 game schedule like MLB! Lazy bastards, WTF!
The season is just 2 weeks away from today, that's coming quick! Honestly I'm not sure that I'm ready for the weekly stress and all the ups and downs.

LOL...I would like to see an 18 game schedule though. The season is too short. 1 game makes too much of a difference. Not that 18 is much better, but it certainly helps.
About it being too long. I guess I haven't really noticed. I always knew the season wouldn't start til Sept. 4th, so that's my focus. Then again, I am probably the only one that dislikes preseason here.
From the recent talk I've heard on NFL radio an 18 game regular season with a 2 game preseason is definitely in the works and seems inevitable.
