Tolstoy Posted August 28, 2004 Posted August 28, 2004 Ok, here are five things that I would like to see from our team tonight. Feel free to add one or two yourself: 1. Bledsoe throws no picks, and gets sacked no more than once by the time we get to the second half. 2. We score two TD's in the first half: it would be preferable if Bledsoe throws at least one TD, and we rush for one more. But I really don't care how we score. 3. Evans catches a couple passes. 4. McGahee gets 40-50 yards rushing in the first half. 5. The Defense holds the Colts to 14 pts or less in the first half, and gets at least one turnover.
Tolstoy Posted August 28, 2004 Author Posted August 28, 2004 Let me add one more: (6) Good solid play from Lawrence Smith, and the O-line in general.
Mark VI Posted August 28, 2004 Posted August 28, 2004 1. No injuries 2. Offense moving the ball 3. No injuries 4. Defense apply some pressure 5. No injuries 6. Good Special Teams 7. No injuries
njsue Posted August 28, 2004 Posted August 28, 2004 A superb performance by the first string offense and defense. Even though its preseason.
Guest Guest Posted August 28, 2004 Posted August 28, 2004 Troy Vincent hit a player from the other team!!!! Ok, here are five things that I would like to see from our team tonight.

Frez Posted August 28, 2004 Posted August 28, 2004 Troy Vincent hit a player from the other team!!!! 9982[/snapback] I'll second that.
Nanker Posted August 28, 2004 Posted August 28, 2004 1.) No Injuries 2.) No Injuries 3.) No Injuries 4.) No Rust left on Willis for the rest of his career 5.) No Missed opportunites by Evans - go man, go. It may be the preseason, but it is the start of your pro career for God's sake. Get movin! 6.) No More holes in the OLine. It stops NOW. 7.) No Missed field goals or extra points 8.) No Sloppy play on any of the three sides of the ball (that'd be O/D/ST - for the dimensionally challenged) 9.) No Uncertainty remaining as to who wants to play on this squad and who's going to work at KMart. 10.) And oh yeah, No Injuries
RVJ Posted August 28, 2004 Posted August 28, 2004 Your number 1 answer. My biggest concern is the blitz. Can this OL handle it. Can DB throw the ball away when theres nothing there. We face three good defenses in our division. And they will go after DB. Count on it.
kasper13 Posted August 28, 2004 Posted August 28, 2004 NO INJURIES!!!!!!!! I'm starting to really think that two preseason games are enough. Too many players are getting hurt in meaningless games. There are enough mini-camps, training camp and scrimmages to get teams ready after two preseason games. They should have 18 regular season games instead.
Corp000085 Posted August 28, 2004 Posted August 28, 2004 1) willis running at 100% 2) good pass protection by the first stringers 3) reed catches a pass in the slot 4) evans burns someone and makes a deep catch 5) no coverage sacks on bledsoe 6) defense holds manning.
Matt in KC Posted August 28, 2004 Posted August 28, 2004 No injuries goes without saying (...damn, I said it anyway!) 1) Solid Special Teams play, including Moorman at 100% 2) Solid run defense in first half 3) Pressure on opposing QBs 4) No more than three sacks given up 5) At least one TD by our starting offense 6) a flash or two from Evans 7) A few receptions from our TEs 8) Losman there talking to coach/team 9) Continued strong play from McGee and K Thomas (CB could be one of our strongest positions) Wish list: Sack by Kelsay 50+ yard return by McGee or Reed Super-scamper by McGahee Evans reception behind the opposing DBs (play-action?)
Guest Guest Posted August 28, 2004 Posted August 28, 2004 - DB throws at least one td and no pics - no sacks - D allows no TDs in first half - one D turnover in first half - no injuries - WM doesnt score a 2 yard td (becasue if he does, it will be the only highlight we see for a week on ESPN)
Charlie68 Posted August 28, 2004 Posted August 28, 2004 forgot to log in - DB throws at least one td and no pics - no sacks - D allows no TDs in first half - one D turnover in first half - no injuries - WM doesnt score a 2 yard td (becasue if he does, it will be the only highlight we see for a week on ESPN)
Rico Posted August 28, 2004 Posted August 28, 2004 1. No injuries. 2. Fletcher smack Manning into next week. 3. TD passes by Bledsoe in the red zone. 4. TD passes by Travis Brown in the red zone.
IDBillzFan Posted August 28, 2004 Posted August 28, 2004 Did anyone mention "no injuries?" That's first on my list. I'd like to see us score a TD, particularly off a turnover. We must get better at points off of turnovers. Better redzone production. Finally, I'd like to see the game on TV.
