to some degree.
So much is put into the 3rd preseason game as being the true test of a team due to the starters playing generally 2-3 quarters.
I'd say this year might be an exception due to how young we are. We should continue to progress and if we don't lose our confidence we should be better by the end of the year than we will be to start the year.
I'm looking for progress this year. We all want to be back in the playoffs now and the clock certainly is ticking as the most important player in our franchise is in the twilight of his career with no heir apparent in the wings.
I really am encouraged by the defensive youngsters. We will have some growing pains this year but they should be fun to watch.
So, the 3rd preseason game may not be as important a gauge on this season as it normally would be.
