Re: Redskins vs. Panthers Gameday Thread
The only problem with the "this is just the preseason, hahaha" talk is 2006. We were coming off the playoffs (just like now), installing a new offense and playcaller (just like now), and the Patriots in the 3rd game exposed our new Strong Safety (just like now).
The regular season is less than two weeks away and the o-line struggles are preventing us from really getting a look at the offense. Meanwhile, the constant three and outs kept the defense on the field and even though we had two starters out the starters who played struggled with tackling, DeAngelo Williams broke three tackles on a 50 yard run up the middle! Reed Doughty is doing an impersonation of Arche Deluxe, Kareem Moore is reading angles like Helen Keller, and those guys who aren't watching the game think that those guys who are are overreacting to a 47-3 score. It's 47-3 and it really isn't even that close, even though this was the first game we game planned.
