It couldn't score a TD and everyone thought the team was playing vanilla on purpose and just working for the final 53 man roster and when the regular season started THATS when we'd see this team explode... well it imploded.
Which brings me to this year, while I think for the most part we are level headed enough not expecting this team to make a Super Bowl run, from what I've seen in preseason so far, it gives me the same feeling the '10 team did. There's a lot of issues that I don't just see magically disappearing/correcting once week 1 hits.
Its not about the Wins/Loses in preseason but how this team plays and how tight they look....and it looks like its going to be a very long season.
Remember the 2015 preseason where we got rolled by Tampa Bay and everyone melted down? People said we had no chance we had issues everywhere and were destined to be horrible. If I remember correctly we had a pretty good season.
So once again, Pre season tells you nothing.
