Monday Night Football - 09/11/06, Redskins vs. ??

they mean as much as the rest of the year's games. their offense has not been impressive in the preseason to say the least

i agree that this game matters and the 'skins should've had it. They fell apart in the second half...again. Penalties and blocking really hurt in the final quarter too. Brunell needs to hit his recievers and the o-line needs to give him a pocket. On the defensive side the backs need to tackle. I was pretty happy with Randel-El and special teams, but that's not going to win ball games, but it did give them good field position.

The preseason is a trial period, it isn't meant to show off what you have. They scored 10 points off of their first 3 possessions when in the preseason with 13 possessions they didn't score a single point. They have 2nd/3rd string people playing and they're testing their playbook. Preseason is a throw away - it's like a 'sandbox'.
