The redskins performance tonight will be considered a failure if....

this was the reuglar season and we lost the game.... :)

They have given up the most yards so far this preseason. I know, I know, its only ......I am just saying.

Yeah but this is the preseason game that "counts"

Campbell goes 1 for anything. Or throws more picks than scores. Or sucks out loud.

If Zorn takes the same approach he's taking in the other preseason games.
I know Billichick will take the game seriously and if Zorn doesn't he's gonna get abused.

Someone important to the team gets seriously injured.

Other than that, dress rehearsal or not, it's still just preseason.

More worried about the defense than the offense at this point, but I do expect to see the pass rush harassing Brady for the entire first half.

It's a failure if Brady makes a preseason highlight reel out of our secondary, or if we suffer a major injury on either side of the ball. I'm okay with a boring performance. I just don't want a complete embarrassment that will be on NFL TA the rest of the season, clip by clip.

I meant 10-14 points by the half, too, which would be 20-28 for a whole game. I thought the starters would play only about a half.Even with that, so much of the second half strategy is based on halftime adjustments that we can't extrapolate a half of points over a game.

Understanding, fully, that your point was that 10-14 points in a half is completely sufficient, my counterpoint is that we won't have any idea how sufficient that is until we play a whole game, start to finish.

Disagree. First team offense needs to perform and puts some points of the board. I think this would ease alot of people's mind going into the season: Fans, media, FO, coaches and the defense. I think the first team Offense getting shut out or turning the ball over a couple times would be much more detrimental for the confidence of this team. I feel the defense has more ability to bounce back if they get beat up tonite.

I think it's safe to say the first half was anything but a failure
