Preseason Week 1- Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Minnesota Vikings

Post by Pondering Her Percy »

Figured I would get this started now. I've never been so pumped for a preseason game in my life :lol:

Offensive players I'm interested to see play:

Teddy- even though it will only be a series or two

Mike Harris- I'm interested to see how he handles that starting RG spot

Johnson/Diggs- Both have had a solid camps

Rudy- Back healthy, he could be a potential pro bowler under Turner

Pruitt- Should get a lot of playing time. Interested to see what he brings to the table.

Rookie offensive lineman- see who has it and who doesnt


Defensive players I'm interested to see play:

Hunter/Crichton- Both have been making waves in camp and should get a lot of time tonight

Kendricks- Just have a feeling he's going to be an absolute beast

Waynes- Should get a lot of time. Have liked what I've seen from him in camp

Any SS- Interested to see who will give Blanton a run for his money. Exum?

I'll be interested to see if Patterson is part of the offense again.

IMO our OL is the whole key to this season if they play well; I see no reason for a playoff run, maybe more

Thomson was rumored to have a good camp... They seemed high on Clemmings and then very little after that.

I think Harris got the nod because of his knowledge of blocking schemes, from previous seasons.

I agree, Pruitt and Diggs could end up making this, a great draft class...

Same here. I want CP to be an offensive weapon again.

I'm interested in all the WRs and in how Turner plans to use them.

I'm one of the few people on earth who always get excited for preseason games. I want to see how our depth is!

That doesn't make much sense. I assume that you mean that there is no reason that they can't make a playoff run?
