I'll close with this. Bad game. More then they just weren't on the same page yet, they looked likedWalker 2

Just not as quick. totally no energy. Like it was a walk through practice.

Serious question. Does anyone think this team is affected by "jawgate"

I do think the jawgate fiasco effected the team. They looked flat on all facets of the game. Maybe they weren't focused

I agree. This ugliness we watched tonight was a team effort. No Petty didn't make any pays to turn it around, but nobody really expected he would. In a very dark night, I'll take that as a bright spot.

Another faint bright spot was Trevor Reilly. Played a very solid game

I think Mauldin is going to be a player. I think he'll be a starter one day. Maybe week 1.

Yes, he had two great pressures. One should have been a sack and the other was a great hit on the qb that they called roughing the passer on. He's looking really good.

Everyone, step off the ledge.

There is almost no way that a defense with Revis, Cromartie, Skrine, Harris, Coples, Sheldon, Mo, Williams and Snacks can be bad. The team played a vanilla defense and they were rusty. Second this is the second year that the Lions are under the same system.

On offense, we moved the ball with Fitz. Cumberland dropped a catchable ball, otherwise we probably score on that drive.

It sucks that we looked unorganized in every phase of the game but this could be a wake up call to the rest of the team that they will need to work hard to continue.

LOL

Sure, be the voice of reason now. Right before the half the fire department had to come to your condo and spread nets under your window.

Your right 1st game

LOL I'm bipolar. I was upset but that's how I am when I watch any game. I overreact and then take a step back and take it all in. Not much to be happy about but I would give the benefit of the doubt that this will not continue. If I see it for three games in a row then it's a trend.

1st team offensive line looked good. ivory looked good. marshall looked good. decker was fine. fitz completed 2 of 3 passes and the miss was a drop. the 1st team offense moved the ball and would have had a 1st down in the redzone if not for cumberland drop.

for the most part, special teams looked solid (except quigley)

ok, that's all i got for positives

If we have to worry about our defense, the season is already over.

Right now it's still all about the offense, and nothing happened tonight to make us think we're in any more trouble than we were 3 hours ago . . .

Yes, good point. I was going to post something similar to this.

Nothing has changed apart from Geno going down. It's a big deal but no reason to lose hope in the rest of the team.

We still have a stacked secondary and dline. Good wideouts and solid rbs. I'll wait until a few weeks into our season before flipping out. This was encouraging but I'm not going to give up.

Not pretty in their first game of the season after lots of issues and at the most important position.

I agree but qb was the least of our worries. We were hoping the defense came firing on all cylinders, at least I was. I am over it now and am not going to be concerned unless I see it happening in the Giants game

The defense will hopefully figure it out. Its only PS and this game means absolutely nothing regardless of how bad it looked.

Replay on SNY right now so I guess I will watch it now. Never mind they cut it off and say its not available in my area. I've always wondered why when I live in Dallas and pay for the Sports Pack on DirecTV its not available in my area. If its on SNY I should get it.

Its not often I can say this about a Preseason Game:

But I did not see one positive in this game that I can cite.

That was an effort and performance of Kotitian proportions.

If you really push me I'll say Mauldin and Reilly flashed as pass rushers, even if Mauldin needs to bring the QB down when he gets there and avoid sack/hurry nullifying penalties, and Bilal Powell flashed some hops, but really this is reaching for positives, mostly it was a clunker of Kotitian propositions; offense, defense, special teams and coaching (no team should ever look that unprepared and lethargic for a football game, even a preseason game, and thats on the coach).

Oh and we don't have a QB, so unless we make a trade, its gonna be a long year.

You can't hide your QB in this league, unless you have the 85 Bears defense, and even then you can't hide him.
