Keep it real guys...

Like saint5221, I just wanted to see some solid individual showings from the players. I was looking for a few guys to try to get themselves noticed in a good way. I didn\'t care if they lost they game, coming away without injuries and seeing some 2nd and 3rd string players trying to win a job is what preseason is all about. I expected a very simple and wrinkle-free scheme on offense and defense in the first preseason game. After hearing about Charles Grant\'s impassioned speech to the team I at least expected enthusiasm and effort.

What we got was a none of the above. It was plain brutal execution of the most simple of plays. No one looked sharp, no one looked interested. I\'m not going to blame the coaching staff solely for the lack of playmaking because they asked just for simple plays. The players were barely able to do that. An adequate showing, even with a loss is fine. The fact that no one on our defense could tackle should be an absolute embarrassment to every player and the coaches. Damn rights they deserve to get sh!t on over last nights performance. They play as a team they get recognition as a team.

I hold nothing last night towards how we will be in the regular season, but any professional that doesn\'t feel embarrassed over last night would scare me to have on our team.
