Whoops you're right lol. Only seems like they lost I guess. My bad! No 16-0

Even if they don’t go 16-0, at least we’ll know they are a true 16-0 team.

Lol.....first ?true? reference of the season.

Where is our board jester? Mommy didn?t take his computer away, did she?

Exactly!!!

Preseason means NOTHING.

A good beat down of the Jets cures everything (for a week)!!

Of the last 10 Superbowl champions none had a losing record in the preseason.

Overall preseason doesn't matter, but at the same time you hate to see our 1st team getting whooped on.
Also if it's simply vanilla vs vanilla in the preseason that means only thing separating teams is talent. Which means, we need to out coach every team this year.

So are you saying the Falcons (0-4, outscored by 69) and the Eagles (1-3 outscored by 38) have ZERO chance at winning the super bowl?

I can guarantee that one of those two teams won't win it.

Not what I said, but I would take bets that the team that will win the superbowl this year did not have a losing preseason record.

Vikings
Rams
Packers
Saints
Patriots
Steelers
Jaguars

Sure there are others as well.

Well that?s a given. Do you think Atlanta and Philly are going to have bad seasons based on their preseason?

I personally don't think there is a strong correlation since backups play the majority of games. I was surprised by the recent history honestly

I think Philly and Atlanta will have winning regular season records.
