Half time observations:
Jennings is a keeper.
ST look VERY different; 8/10.
D looks sound and flows to the ball nicely. 7/10
OL is providing time and looks like an improvement. 6/10.
Uniforms are so effective they caused a power outage: -4/10.

On balance, I've enjoyed the evening, despite Rod Black.

Looking forward to McGhee get some snaps. I predict he will light it up.

Strange that Rainey has done all the returning tonight. We know what he can do. Save him for the regular season.

Can now confirm the so called battle for No. 1 was no more than Wally Speak. Not even close. Mr Vertical vs Mr Checkdown

What I generally like to see in pre-season games is some player stepping up and putting an exclamation on saying he deserves to stay....making a big play or just making you go "wow". Nothing like that but I think Leone has stepped up to show he is better than last year.

Wow, scary to think where this organization would be had Jennings not fallen on their lap.
