Anxious to see the bubble guys fight for a WR job.

The young guys on both sides of the line.

Martinez and Fackrell against the run and the pass and where they are at development-wise.

Hundley available? Will the UFDA QBs show us enough to be considered for the practice squad?

Any UFDAs come out of nowhere this year like Gunter. What about Gunter does he still show us flashes to keep us excited?

Like everyone. Just want us to keep the injuries to a minimum.

Hopefully Cook and Monty sit this out or are limited.

And maybe watch Burnett at ILB some, as Hyde plays SS. Barclay looking surprisingly good on the inside of the OL (where he should have been all along). Rookie DL getting a ton of snaps. And a lot of talk about how Lacy looked during the game (which is hopefully great). Better depth than we're used to at the OL and LB positions. Some newcomers to possible show up and look good, TE Jared Cook, WR Herb Waters, WR Geronimo Allison, DL Brian Price, OLB Lerentee McCray.

As well as some negatives, such as lack of development of the non-CB 2nd year players. Janis still having tons of potential and failing to maximize it. Rookie OTs show potential, but also show they're rookies and still have a lot to learn. OLB Fackrell looks like he needs more strength before he'll be a playmaker in the NFL. Worse depth than we're used to at CB and maybe DL positions.

What we WON'T see is very much of the "Real" GBP's team nor the actual plays they will run.

At best you can pick out a player or two and watch how they perform in individual match ups. Then pretend that they will handle an All Pro the same way if they were in a regular season game.

But at least we are getting closer to meaningful games. [bdance]

I don't think this game is being broadcast much beyond the local area, so I hope so.

I'll be watching as best I or anyone can for a game with nearly X2 as many players and jersey #s to try to keep up with. Even the Packers Coaches and Staff will need to closely review the videos to really see who did/did not execute their blocking assignments, pass routes, coverage's , or tackling task. Yes, some players will shine brighter than others, but in the final analysis their skills will be evaluated by professionals that have spent their lives building football teams.

I want to see exciting plays and spectacular hits , but I know that whats more important are the plays where boring blocks are correctly executed or a pass coverage is correctly read or a line gap is correctly plugged . Preseason football is an important part of building a team. Players will go 100% against opposing players that are going 100% , both giving their best to impress and make the roster of a professional team and the financial benefits that go with it .

Most of all , I don't want to see any injuries to either team as I get a look at a sport that I have sorely missed . Go Pack Go !
