Well last week was a bit of a shit show on defense, so I'm hoping to see some sort of redemption this week. TEN has a solid offense but nothing spectacular.
Just as a reminder of the new caveat for roster cut-downs. The NFL owners voted to eliminate the 1st wave of cuts last offseason. So there is only 1 cut-down AFTER the final preseason game. The exact date & time for final rosters to be submitted is Sept 1st by 4pm ET. Last preseason game is the 30th, which gives them roughly 1.5 days to trim their roster.
Probably will get some sort of confirmation today after practice concludes.
OFFENSE... Don't think we'll see more than 1-2 series from Ben & Co. But the formula is the same. I'm hoping to see both Washington & Patterson take some 1st team reps with Ben. Because that is likely what we are going to see week 1, working along-side AB & JuJu. Those guys are going to have to learn quickly about refining their game when working with Ben. Excited to see what both can do. Would love to see Ridley & Franklin get the bulk of the load after the 1st team. No need to keep Conner in there as he isn't battling for a spot.
DEFENSE... We may finally get our first look at Watt & Dupree on the field together, in combination with Tuitt & Heyward. May even get to see Davis & Haden in the secondary. If there was ever a time to come out with a strong performance to hush all the doubters, this is it. Low-key battles between Ola & Huguenin, B Allen/Phillips/Sens, and McCullers & Frazier are going to be things to keep an eye on in the 2nd half of the game.
