Game Thread: Patriots vs. Redskins

Please no injuries.

1 TD Drive by Robert

Hold Brady to zero points.


My wish list.

Mission accomplished with Brady.

He's not playing.

Brady isn't playing, they are putting Mallet on display for Houston (or whoever else).

No injuries is always the biggest thing.

I am looking forward to seeing our LB group play. I don't think we will know anything on the safeties till the season starts and people start exploiting them.

I would love to see a nice long first drive, ending with a TD and then the starters sit. I don't want to see the kind of start the Giants had against the Bills.

The New England Patriots and the Washington Redskins will meet for the 21st time in the preseason, with New England holding a 13-7 advantage in the previous 20 contests. The only other teams the Patriots have played more in the preseason are the New York Giants with 23 and the Philadelphia Eagles with 21 preseason meetings.

The Patriots' 13 preseason victories over the Redskins are their highest total over any preseason opponent. The Patriots have won five straight preseason games against Washington and have won eight of the last 10 preseason games in the series. The teams last faced off against each other in the preseason in 2009 with the Patriots taking a 27-24 victory at Washington on Aug. 28, 2009.

The Patriots and Redskins have met in the regular season nine times with the Redskins holding a 6-3 advantage. The Patriots earned their first-ever regular season win in Washington in the last regular season meeting between the two teams when the Patriots beat the Redskins, 34-27, on Dec. 11, 2011.

^^ this is a cool pregame cheat sheet of sorts. tells you who has local connections, etc.

I forgot former Terp Joe Vellano plays for the Pats.

No serious injuries and I'm happy with anything else, even if we look horrid.

Don't forget, we were 4-0 and looking good in the preseason last year.

Yeah exactly, big thing about the preseason is to not get too excited or too down. Especially about the 1st game.

kinda hope brady was going to play

Too bad Brady isn't playing. Although it could mean Hoody is that scared of our pass rush. :D

Which is what I'm looking forward to seeing most besides RG. Our defense supposedly got beat by the Patriots, but with the pass rushers able to hit the QB now, it'll be the first chance to see what we have. I really want to see the Yeti get a couple of sacks.

Also looking forward to Ryan Grant and Chris Thompson. We've heard a lot about you, now show it out there.

Kinda wish we could skip right to the season. People get way too carried away with these preseason games.

Anyone know where you can watch the game online?
