Cowboys 12 - 4
Texans 10 - 6

I did not see the game, but I drafted Tony Romo today in a FFBall League and saw the stat lines. Any opinion on why the Cowboys played so bad?
Go Packers! Jerimichael Finley is an absolute beast. If we sweep the Vikings and Favre this year I will be happy.

lol at pathetic Cowboys rationalization.
At the game, right after the first fumble, I started talking shitto my buddy who I invited to the game, saying "Ok, so repeat after me 'It's just preseason.' 'it's your superbowl' 'we weren't trying' It'll make you feel better."
Some nearby cowboys fans got wind of it, and were poking fun. And yet quarter 3, 23-0. What spews out of their mouth? 'It's just a fake game.' 'Y'all are so excited to play us'
*rofl rofl rofl rofl*.
23-0 Texans starters vs. Cowboys starters. WOOHOOOO.

not too pumped about the Chiefs' prospects this year, 6-10 would be considered a win

I basically feel the same about the Seahawks. More than our eventual record, I'm interested in how the young guys perform and if it looks like Carroll is heading the team in the right direction, as opposed to the deer-in-headlights Mora we saw last year.
We do have a chance to make the playoffs thanks to our bad division, but, a lot of things would have to go right for that to happen.

I'd bet there's a slight correlation between pre-season wins and regular season wins, but mostly I think scores and wins are meaningless. Watching to see how the first and second stringers play has some significance though.
2007 Patriots (16-0): 2-2 in preseason
2008 Lions (0-16): 4-0 in preseason

I'm sure there's a slight correlation, too, but the Colts have won something like four or five preseason games since 2005, yet they rattle off 12+ wins every year. Chiefs are 0-3 so far so maybe that should bring me hope (it doesn't).
I think they should either shorten the preseason (2 games tops), or keep it the same but make the games way cheaper to go to (right now each team charges regular season prices to preseason games). I hope they don't go to an 18-game schedule, but it appears that's going to happen in the near future, within 3-5 years.

I like the direction Schwartz is taking the Lions. I love our d-line (Suh, Vanden Boesch, Corey Williams) but the secondary is pretty much awful (outside of saftey Louis Delmas). The offense should be much improved with Stafford entering his 2nd year and Pettigrew healthy, not to mention the additions of Scheffler, Burleson and Javid Best (who looks absolutely sick). Is this enough to scare the opposing defense? maybe not but it's hopefully enough to keep the defense from triple teaming Calvin every play.
Unfortunately, the schedule is just brutal. I would be willing to bet a lot of money that the Lions open the season 0-4 (@Chicago, Philly, @Minnesota, @Green Bay, YUCK).
Auto-Losses this year: (@Chicago, Philly, @Minnesota, @Green Bay, @Giants, Jets, @Dallas, New England, Green Bay, Minnesota). That puts us at 10 losses.
Games we might have a chance in: (Rams, Redskins, @Buffalo, vs Chicago, @Tampa, @Miami).
I think I would consider a good season to be 4-12 with Stafford, Best, Pettigrew, Suh all having solid seasons to build in for next year and then in the offseason drafting/signing some good cornerbacks and safties.
Also, the preseason means diddly shit

I should clarify that the preseason means nothing in terms of wins and losses. It is useful in determining how certain players are going to be used. The most common example of this is when there are running back timeshares. The preseason is useful in determining what the breakdown of carries is going to be. (Ex: Thomas Jones is going to steal a lot of carries from Jamal Charles this year and keep him from being a top 5 fantasy RB, FU Todd Hayley)

Yikes Bob. I didn't know that y'all had a schedule like that.
I'm really jealous y'all got Suh. Rams will regret passing on him for a long, long time, I think. That D-Line should be something eventually.
I'm going to give y'all credit for at least 5 wins.  Surely you can squeek one out once when the other team is looking past you.

Hi, I'm a Colts fan. Since there are no legit Saints fans on FTR, you are all subordinate to me.
And finally, lol Houstonaments. That pretty much sums it up imo.
LET'S SEE SOME LEGIT COACHING AND PREP IN THE BIGGEST GAMES OF THE YEAR, EH CALDWELL???

You just be ready to pay up when my Lions get their 6th win this season vs your precious Patriots.
Suh snaps Brady's back like a twig in the 3rd quarter and Lions rally being down 17.

Oh and 2nd that our schedule sucks DICK, but fwiw I don't think @Chicago, Philly, @Giants, and Jets are auto losses. I bet we squeak out 2, maybe 3 games there. I'm putting us at 6-10 or 7-9. Either way would be a huge win.

I hereby predict the Bengals will be better than last year, but will be lucky to go 8-8, last year's record was a total fluke.
Go bucks.
I feel strongly we should edit the OP to something not involving pre season.
