It's no secret on here that I don't put a lot of stock in the preseason games. Not to say that I dismiss everything, 'cause I don't.

That being said, this upcoming game should give much more insight about our team and more specifically about our defense. Hopefully, all the starters will be healthy enough to play.

The starters are suppose to play the entire 1st half. If so, then we should be able to see some improvements from last year. They are going to make mistakes. But, there should be more postive signs than negative ones. Remember, it's preseason, if you're going to make mistakes, now is the time to have them.

Even if we do play all of our starters, it's still going to be hard to guage how good we are, depending on who the Packers put on the field. And what they are trying to do.

It's possible we could look great against Green Bay and not be nearly that good because the Packers have one or two guys playing with their starters who won't be there come opeing day. One or two players can make a HUGE difference.

I'm not sure exactly what I'll be looking for. I'll just be watching and hoping I see some signs of improvement.

And as always, I'll be looking foward to everyone's comments after the game...
