Same with the Lions.  Always been great in preseason....we will see

I was going to say that you don't know being teased until you've been a Lions fan.

The last two times the Steelers won the SB, they were winless in the preseason... so maybe the defense will not allow 75000 yards per game, whothefuckknows.

Winning in the preseason is highly overrated. I mean, yeah, nobody goes out of their way to lose a preseason game, but the W-L record is not something anyone is going to care about - except perhaps to those teams who aren't going to get many regular season wins. Tongue

The only thing that matters in the preseason, is how the 1st and to some extent some of the 2nd string do.  Most games are won and lost by the clean up crew.  So yah...your 3rd and 4th stringers are better.  whoop-de-fucking-do.

This. I usually prefer preseason losses.

Fuck the preseason. Full admission price to watch the scrubs play in games that mean nothing. Or, the NFL fleecing the fans for fun and profit.

No, I'm not happy that the scrub who is filling Kam's slot can't tackle.
