1. First off there haven't been THAT many, it's been a steady stream daily but it's not like every other play

2. This offense is characterized by turnovers off timing and angle miscues early in the installation, especially the systematic install

3. The coaches are specifically telling the quarterbacks to be aggressive, take chances, and don't worry about picks
Ohh.

Actually, you can glean a lot about a team from the pre-season games.

I guess he's never been healthy because he's had only one winning season in 7 years, that included 83 fumbles, 89 INT's, & 249 sacks. That's not elite.

Culpepper's like a 7-Up commercial, never had it, never will.

Was Culpepper ever Mobile? Culpepper sacked 249 times in 7 years; Marino was sacked 270 times in 17 years. You do the math.

P.S. If he's so good why is he still unemployed???

The story is different in Buffalo... but it's not like you have to play them twice a year or anything.

A little disconcerting. Not enough to panic about at this point however. Did anyone else who was there see the same thing?
The only thing that worries me about any of are the reports on the OL being "destroyed".

Green I'm not going to worry about one little bit.
He's proven himself and he'll be a player if given the chance by the mules up front.

It's early yes, BUT, an argument can be made that we just don't have the players needed to get it done up front right now.

Mormino sure was named quite a bit there on the wrong end of the play.

I agree that saying preseason is "meaningless" is wrong.

As with everything, its got to be kept in context.

For example, if the Patriots offense sucks in preseason, I would be quick to point out that its meaningless. The Patriots offense is a proven commodity and will be good this year. We know this. Preseason performance be damned.

If our offense struggles in preseason, I would be apt to think it will be telling as our Offense has struggled consistenly the past three years.

Our offense has so many variables this year. New QB, new starters at every oline position, new offensive terminology and playcalling, alot of young players to work in...patience will be the order of the day.

A few things:

1. Like an earlier post said, don't look into offensive line groupings. Cam knows our line needs work and wants every lineman prepared. At the end of camp, the five best linemen will start.

2. Its hard for our new offense to compete against that stellar defense of ours. Even Marino would struggle against this group.

3. Greg Bedard is always negative toward our Fins. We could win the Superbowl and he would say the other team didnt play their A-game and we wouldve lost otherwise.

Well that's because Buffalo's Defense sucks
