Preseason Opener Vs Tampa Gameday thread

[madinsomniac]

Well here we go.. the 2023 NFL season is virtually here
The temperature is going to basically be 100 degrees during the game tonight, so hopefully there arent any of those heat related injuries.

7 pm on KDKA here in Pittsburgh…

Too hot to even set and watch a football game much less play in it.....

Pregame says it’s 100 on the field. May not see starters very long. They say Porter has ice on his legs and unlikely to play.

I am terrified of pulled muscles from cramps in these kind of games… stupid hot weather summer preseason games…

Bucs only playing 4-5 starters. Pickett only playing one series tonight. Time to take the next step and decrease the preseason to two games.

Two game and both are six quarters so you can evaluate everyone. Then the owners will want 18 regular season games of course

And probably 8 playoff teams...

Preseason used to be about getting the starters ready for the regular season. I don't even understand the point anymore. So coaches can figure out which two fringe players make the roster?

It was a relic from when players were not in shape year round…. But the owners and tv don’t want to give up the money from them…

Peezy Jr. probably precautionary out. I think we will see all 4 QBs tonight.

Me to ol girl , (deep inhale then exhale) "can you feel it in the air" ohhh yeah

Ol girl (with odd look on her face) "it's just preseason".

Part of me wants to see the ground and pound offense out of the gate, but the other part wants no-huddle and try to score with a quick strike offensive approach.

 

[bermudasteel]

So the Steelers were one of the best teams in the league At having these kind of drives with several small first downs but not getting tds off of them… so that td was big
