DawgTalkers.net Forums Thread Like Summary - What Do You Want to See?

My list:

- An improvement along the OL ... get some push in the run game, have our OT spots look better in pass pro
- We need our backup secondary to play better
- DTR - just play him most of the game IMO

Judging receivers from a pre-season game is probably not a good measuring stick.

Players are coming in and out. Quarterbacks are changing. OL line assignments are most likely inconsistent.

We really cannot see how Tillman is doing. We have to go by those who get to watch practice and know what they are seeing.

I don't place much emphasis on pre-season. Some things like watching DTR is revealing because you get to watch "how" he is playing. Results may or may not be accurate as far a full picture goes.

Line play can show some things.

The most important thing is remaining healthy.

Aditi called him James today.

I want to see the defense pick up where they left off from last season (well, not the Houston game... you know what I mean).

In general, I want to see competency from the offense.

-competent line play
-competent QB play
-something from our run game
-competent WR play

The bar is not super high for the offense. Basically, I want to see all the hand-wringing about the O during the preseason end up being much ado about nothing. I NEED to see at least one healthy starting OT. I need to see a WR not named Cooper assert himself as a reliable playmaker. At this point, I don't care who it is. I want to see Watson comfortably executing within the offense. I do NOT accept anymore of the 'rust' excuse. He used all that up.
