Hoping Jameis has a bad start to his career tonight.
On our side curious to see if captain plays with the 1s and how the o-line looks. I'm assuming they hold out Barr even though he was back at practice. Will also be interesting to see if Waynes can bounce back from last week.

I really don't think Waynes was too terrible last week. After all it was his first game, he was probably nervous and Atleast one of those penalty calls was pretty suspect.
I expect waynes to play most of the game again and probably keep progressing in the right direction.

Hoping to see:
chemistry between Bridgewater and Wallace.
Solid OL performance
Waynes being challenged again.
Closer to the answer of Exum or Blanton?
If Locke is all over the place again, I really would like to see them bring in someone to challenge him.

I agree. And I prefer he be aggressive and get those flags now than show us he is timid and not willing to get his jersey dirty. Flags will happen on the best of the best as it is.
I like watching the first team offense in preseason games, of course, but I'm all about watching the defense and in particular the young guys to see how they progress and how instinctive they are. That's where my focus will be.

if you live in MN, you have to watch the local affiliate. I'm watching it in NFLN right now with PA and Bercich.

I thought it started at 7 p.m. Central. Seeing Barry Sanders feature.

Their jersey numbers look like digital clock numbers.

I really hope Loadholt isn't down once the games matter...
