~PRESEASON WK 1. Cowboys at Raiders

big_palooka · Joined: 30 Mar 2006 Posts: 19067 Location: ATL

Kickoff at 8:00 PM ET.

Gruden tells you how much he likes every player playing on the field in no particular order and 8:01.

Players I'm looking forward to seeing:

Burris - Can he fill in for the injured Curry, or do we need a vet?

Spencer - Has he settled into his role.

TEs - Is anyone going to stand out?

DVD, Criner, Streater - Camp hype or for real?

Fringe roster players:

-Kidi - small school kid.
-Crawford - Can he be a situational pass rusher?
-Carrier - Really want to see him stick.
-Hamilton - Another UDFA who could have a role

Go Raiders!

I want to see how Gordon/Ausberry do, and if one of them can step up and take the starting job. I was always a fan of Ausberry at SC. I'm also interested to see Criner/Streater, Pryor, and pretty much the whole new defensive scheme.

I can't wait to watch Pryor suit up. He's gonna look like a boss in the silver and black. I'm keeping my expectations low, but I hope he breaks off one big scramble.

I think Criner is going to steal the show.

I know it's preaseason, but with Dez Bryant and Miles Austin out for Dallas, I really don't want to see our pass D get shredded early in the game. I'm interested to see how Bartell, Spencer, and DVD look.

Looking forward to seeing Allen's discipline in action. Too often we saw Hue just shake his head when called for a penalty or failed to execute. Allen will hold them accountable.

Then playerwise..
Pryor
Streater
Criner
Miller
Crawford
Wheeler
McClain
DVD

Really looking forward to Pryor.I don't think he played at all last year so wondering how much he has picked up while sitting on the bench.

Obviously I want to see the team as a whole, but I will be focusing more on Pryor, Bartell, DVD, and the young pups at WR (Criner and Streater).

Really want to see the defense and its new look, but I expect to see a pretty similar defense to years past because this is the time of the year your supposed to play vanilla defenses.

Aside from everything mentioned above, let's just hope no one on either team gets injured. I know it's obvious, but getting an injury is the last thing this team needs. Especially with our depth in multiple positions.

I'm also eager to see how DA & our other coaches act/react to certain things on the sidelines.
