Good luck, guys. But our 1st defense is awesome, even if a couple starters don't play (Minter, Lucas). Both teams have good "D". I look for a low scoring game. Of course that's what they said when we were in the SB against the Pats.
I'm glad were playing some tough defenses to be honest. 3/4 of our preseason opponents have GREAT defenses (Car, Pit, Bal), and Cinci dosent have a half bad unit either. I think this will help test our first team offense, so that they can bring their game up to the next level. During the regular season, we dont face that many REALLY dominant defenses. In fact, I'd go as far as saying that all three of those teams we play in preseason, are better than ever single defense we play. Philadelphia is the only real exception I'm looking at.

The game in its entirety can only be seen on Monday on the NFL Network, for those of us outside the Washington viewing area.

1st off, none of the local washington area channels are carrying it? I have DirecTV and I don't think I get comcast sporst net...
What I really want to see from this game, is Rufus Brown show a glimpse of what he did in NFLE. I also want to see absolutely nothing flashy from the first string offense. Save the new stuff for when it counts.
But most of all I want Brunell to suck and for Bryson Spinner to dominate when and if he gets a chance, so that we'll be more motivated to get rid of old Mark. I think us passing on Spinner for Brunell will be something that could seriously come back to haunt us, no matter what it costs.
Also I think I'm gonna be laughing when the backups try to throw against us. Our D is so stacked and deep that I think we're gonna crush them in the second half. Omar Stoutmire and Pierson Prioleau could feasably be starters on most NFL teams. Along with our backup Linebackers.

I can't imagine them pushing Brunell aside for Spinner. Ramsey is still rather raw as an NFL QB and Campbell is a rookie. So your third QB should be a veteran who's been through the highs and lows and can help guide the young QBs (Ramsey and Campbell). Spinner can't do that.

Well we've all seen what Brunell can do. He's further removed from playing than Musgrave. I just really want to see spinner play for the team. He's a local kid like that baber cat. Also (situational, I know) he looked better than campbell in camp.

I don't know. I think Spinner is probably looking at the practice squad, if anything, this year

Yeah I could see that... just so long as he doesn't go anywhere. I don't see us needing to activate him or anything... it's probably more of the sentiment that he plays for his local team than anything. Well that and we're tying up a roster spot with brunell that we shouldn't be...
