What Are You Going To Be Looking For In Tomorrows Preseason Game

[darthseinfeld]

For me:

- How the backs handle short yardage running.

- Whiteheads ball security on returns

- Can we get more consistent play from Weems then we did the Chargers game

- Wilsons play at SAM (if they play him there)

- How fast McFadden looks behind our line. Even minus Smith and Martin its an improvement from Oakland.

- Is Collins going to use Leary's injury to make a serious push for the LG job

- Carliff Taylor. Seems like a very interesting 1 Tech prospect

On that field.....

- No injuries!

- No serious injuries!

- Then what you posted+ Gregory getting consistent pressure and a couple of pure sacks.

I hope Staley is playing. That would be a great test for him

- McFadden
- Gregory
- Swaim

You forgot "No very serious injuries!"

Aaah, you are correct, sir! How could I have forgotten? I also should have added "season and career-ending injuries", just to be sure there was no room for ambiguity.

Looking for the trainers to fall asleep on the sideline.

Yep, or passing time by eating sunflower seeds.

I'm not sure that I want to see McFadden on that field. Hopefully they get it into good shape but I'm skeptical. If not for the field, McFadden would be the most interesting thing to see in this game.

Weems need to make progress. The backup OT spot from the past few years to now is like Tom Brady having to switch from Gisèle to Roseanne Barr.

Collins will make some blocks that fans love but they won't notice the mistakes he makes. The fan narrative has already been established that he is great.

Returns are a huge issue, especially Punt Returns. If Whitehead fails then the returner might not be on the team currently.

I'm just expecting a camp body from Carliff Taylor. I think they signed him because they are short on players to practice that position. Hayden, T. McClain, Bishop and T. Crawford have all been out of practice to some extent and Whaley was lost for the season. I'm hopeful that Bishop is playing in the game because I want to see him win a spot on the roster.

The entire DLine is interesting to me. Will Russell continue to look as good as the last game? Will Gardner make any improvement or will he continue to disappoint like last week? Will Edwards continue his unexpected push for a roster spot? Who looks better between Bishop and Coleman? Is Jack Crawford as good as the practice reports claim?

Will Corey White continue his excellent play from the last game?

It will be interesting to see Wilber at MLB.

I agree with no injuries. That's the biggest thing. I would like to see Whitehead get some more return chances and not fumble. If Swaim keeps playing good they might have a tough decision at Tight End. And hopefully McFadden looks decent and not get injured. I hate saying that about him but it's true

Several fights, hopefully involving Dez Bryant, simply to piss off some Cowboyszone members.

- McFadden. I want to see his ability to find cutback lanes in the zone blocking scheme (hopefully we show it a little bit in pre-seaon game 2 and 3) or if he exhibits what some of the Raiders fans said in "He's okay at running behind power blocking scheme but not ZBS".

- Hill and Malena. I don't remember Malena playing in any Pre-season games last year (did he get cut during TC?), so I just want to see what they have to offer, if any, as a potential practice squad RB.

- Whitehead. No fumbles!

- Weems. Need him to be steady in this game and next or I'm going to be biting my nails this season every time one of the starting OTs leaves the pile limping.

- Gachkar. I wasn't impressed with what I saw in Pre-season#1. I hope he proves he can at least be a decent backup LB/special teams player.

- White. I'm really interested in seeing more of this guy and seeing if PS#1 was a fluke or can he carry that performance into this second game.

- Lee. No need to explain this one.

 

[DFWJC]

I'd be fine if McFadden sat it out, but if not, then run hard and be decisive.

Also fine with Lee sitting on a ratty field.

Agree on Whitehead. Jeez dude, just hold on to the ball.

Sacks?

 

[Vinnie2u]

I'm looking forward to seeing Witten, Romo, TSmith, Dez, Orlando and Carr on the sidelines. Cracking jokes and clapping...

 

[theogt]

Vaughan, McFadden, Gregory and Coleman.

 

[big dog cowboy]

No injuries, backup QB and defense. We'll be alright on offense. Our defense will determine how far we go again this year. Love all the upgrades and personally I feel we could have a top 10-12 unit or better with a consistent pass rush.

Tom Brady having to switch from Gisèle to Roseanne Barr.

That is a mental picture I wish I could delete.

Thanks X

I hoping they can at least upgrade from Roseanne to Khloe Kardashian (I think Khloe is the big-en but I might have the names mixed up).

This the one?

Yep. That's about halfway between Gisèle and Roseanne.
