    !!!!!

    Here it is ladies and gentlemen, real, live football! I don't expect to see the starters play a lot, but getting a chance to see all the young players get some extended playing time against a different team will be exciting.

    It's football season! Fins Up!!!

    Oops. Meant to say I didn't expect to see the starters play a lot. I'm too hyped!

    Things I'm most interested to see:

    1) Bobby McCain - Let's face it, the starters are probably playing 1 or 2 drives at most. From all the reports I've read McCain has been looking pretty good; did well in the scrimmage. I'm interested to see what he brings as he's probably one of it not my favorite picks from the 2015 Draft.

    2) Billy Turner - I don't think he's near as bad as everyone seemingly is making him out to be. The Bears have an interesting collection of players in their new 3-4 along the front. Eddie Goldman, Jarvis Jenkins, Will Sutton, etc. I'm interested to see how well he holds his own against them.

    3) Kelvin Sheppard - He played the run pretty well in his start against the Pats last year. I'm interested to see if there's more to his game, or if he's merely a good depth player.

    4) Backup OL - Obvious.

    Game day!! Woo!!

    Now, if only we can find a way to watch the game live :lol: If not, recording the NFLN replay tomorrow at 10am.

    Looking forward to seeing this new team in action. So many big, exciting changes. Really going to have to pay attention to the OL though.

    I will be most interested in our OL and LBs during the first series.

    Later, I want to see Ajayi and LaJames on offense. Then Luc and Hewitt on D. Especially Hewitt on passing downs.

    I'll likely watch the replay of the second and third games in full, but with this one I may skip the second half since a lot of the guys playing have no prayer of making the team. If I could watch it live start to finish, I would.

    Watching for:

    1) Jamil at LG and Billy at RG. Also, do coaches force Dallas Thomas out there a lot. Hope not.

    2) How Fox fares at LG (or is he still hurt?)

    3) Which LB mix looks the best together? I hope it's Jenkins - Sheppard (or Tripp, even!) - and McCain/Misi platooning at SOLB.

    4) The McCains and Taylor. Who looks like a boundary CB?

    5) Lippett.. does he flash potential

    6) Just what do we have in LaMichael James? Does Lamar run better in the redzone and between the tackles.

    7) Suh's domination and Wake's dongage. But only for one series pls.

    8) Really wanna see how much Fede has improved, and McCain's impact as a pass rusher.

    9) Landry.. can he threaten deep at all? Jennings... really wanna see him on clutch middle of the field throws and redzone.

    10) JC! No, not Jesus. Jordan Cameron. (Please stay healthy JC)

    11) Kickers... if they struggle again, it's time to bring another guy in to compete.

    12) and of course Tannehill, Tannehill, Tannehill. Impress us, boss!

    I really wish That all of you could see it..Luckily I get Channel 4 out of Miami, so I will see the game. I wish That I could somehow help y'all see it, but I wouldn't know where to begin. Also, I have a question, that might anybody that has a dish....Am I correct in my thinking, that I heard that when using any type of package, like Dish,DirecTv, that you can have all of the local tv stations, as part of your package? If so, those that use satellite should have NP watching it Live....hope this helps someone...local to Miami, the game will be on UPN, Channel 4.:knucks:

    I want to see how the Gs handle another DL. 3-4 defenses often give young OL problems as they're so multiple.

    I want to see our secondary, specifically everybody after Grimes. I expect the upgrade from Wilson last year will be huge.

    I want to see LaMike and Ajayi. Ajayi hasn't been getting any reps and is reportedly injured so I expect to be disappointed there.

    I want to see Tannehill look in control.

    I'll be at the game tonight. Hopefully I won't be too hammered to give some semblance of a "This guy is good. This guy sucks."

    Hahaha. It's expensive that's for sure!

    You live in Chicago, DFD?

    I'll pregame a little after I leave the office. Last year was great, tailgated with all the senile Bears fans who thought they were good. Miami beat the piss out of them last year. Hoping for the same result. Preseason or not, it will be a good time.

    I am in Seattle. No matter where you are in USA, beer at stadiums are expensive.

    I went to the M's game yesterday and spent $20 on two beers.

    Even though they'll likely only see each other for about 3 plays, I'm willing to bet Cutler's buttcheeks are tightly clenched at the thought of reuniting with Suh.
