It's exciting the 2014 NFL season is about to get underway, and even though it's only preseason football, it will be good to see our favorite |

This is a tough question, after all preseason game one is basically a glorified scrimmage.
However... I will be focusing on a few things..
Looking forward to seeing how Richardson plays against another teams scheme.
Flynn- Hmm? Will he be solid, or revert back to Matt the Raider?
The O line- Always important to watch the chemistry.
Ha Ha Vs. Hyde- Should be interesting, because multiple NFL reports are that based on camp performances this year, one of the best NFL safeties this year will be wearing number 24 and wearing Silver and Black.

Matt was injured last year. |
I want to go out like my Grandpa did. Peacefully in his sleep.
Not screaming in terror like his passengers. |

I find stories like the "5 things to watch" or "What to watch for" mildly offensive. Are you kidding me? If you're a fan of this team, you know what to watch for without anyone telling you.
Those articles are written for people who don't follow football at all. To bring one over into a forum of savvy Packers followers is a little insulting, IMO. I guess I should be happy... as I wouldn't have any idea what I should be watching for if some guy from another website didn't tell me.
The thread about what you wanted to focus on is different as it points out to everyone what things are important, or of interest, to individual fans.

We know you're going to be watching Ted Thompson to ensure he is doing things behind the scenes to validate his extension. |

I want to see if Ted has splurged now that he got his extension and added a guy to clean his glasses like Jerry Jones. Oops, sorry... Ted Thompson is so cheap he doesn't even wear glasses even though he probably needs them. [grin1] I would sit Lacy for almost the entire pre-season. No need to send him out there in pre-season. Other than the 3rd game, I would be very stingy with any playing time for any of our starters. |

About as amazing as it is multiple websites would have to tell a fan what to watch as if they don't know, and if they don't, they aren't really fans in the first place. A story like that has no business on a Packers forum. Put it on a site like "newtofootball.com" but not here. |
