I merely watch the games to evaluate the younger guys fighting for roster spots.
Don't forget that after the 1st preseason game it was the exact opposite. The defense is back, Eifert is uncoverable, Andy looks better than ever, etc.
Hell, there was the thread asking when we'd lose a game and some people were in shock that we may even lose at all this year! There were posts in there like "wow, I don't even know when we'll lose! It might be week 8 or later by the time we drop a game!". I mean, seriously lol
This board is full of overreactions, and it's been a delight to watch the collective "We're going to the Super Bowl!!!" turn into a colossal meltdown due to 2 preseason games.
I watch the games to see what the backups are up to as well. I don't see how anyone can take toooooo much away from the starters, especially when there's almost always a backup or two thrown into the starting lineup that won't be in there when the regular season comes.
