Default Were they worn out last night?

It seems as though TC has worn on them. By all accounts, this was a more physical camp. Given that we've had more heat recently, and they've still had double sessions this past week, could the team be drained?

Now could be the time that BB eases off the accelerator and they have a sharp performance against the 'Skins next week. Perhaps it's all part of the master plan. The alternative is that they're really having trouble getting on the same page in many areas. That would be somewhat troubling.

Totally. Don't think fatique is an issue at this point.

defintely a concern. the players said that this is the toughest BB boot camp since he arrived.

Funny how the same tough camp left them so fresh for the 1st game, eh?

The offense was definitely out of sync, but I didn't see any reason to attribute it to fatigue.

Exactly this. It happens every season, and this board still freaks out over preseason performance. Of course, by December everybody will have forgotten that we don't game plan for preseason games and next year will start another round of preseason panic.

exactly. They didn't even play the entire game, so if they are getting tired after a few quarters. yikes.

i didnt even see the game much just a few mins. although brady's throws sailing over moss and welker could be because of his mental challenges with the injury but it could be just about knocking the rust off and gettiing in mid season form. other than that i really did see much to worry or excite a lot either..they were just moving stuff around to fit personnel.

They weren't worn out, just making rookie and new guy mistakes or screwing up without reasoning...
