I think the most concerning thing by far has to be the inability of the offense to score touchdowns. For the last 5 years or so we have been fielding different rosters, only to get the same result. This team has to play better inside the opponent's 40. They have to punch it in.
You guys have to remember we're barely using any plays during these games. If you haven't noticed, we're not even using our TE's and that's the main scheme of the offense. We need to wait for Yeldon, Julius and Lee to get back as well.
My major concerns.
1. What should the menu be for the tailgating at home games?
2. What should the menu be for the away games?
3. Which beer should I serve along with said menus?
4. Should I burn a day off from work the day after the 4:05 start time of the game on 9/20 or just "suck it up"?
5. What about using a couple of vacation days for the 11/19 game? Perhaps take that Thursday and Friday off?

I think as fans, these are the important things to be concerned with.
You folks have nailed it.
1. Lack of a pass rush.
2. Hurns is the only healthy wide receiver we have who can get open deep, but he can't catch.
3. We don't have a viable backup at OT.
4. Gus is a terrible game-day coach.
On the plus side, the OL is way way better, Gerhart seems to be money on 3rd/4th and short, and Bortles is much improved. Sergio Brown is an upgrade at safety.
They still can't score TD's. and this ain't futbol.
Quote:Pass rush worst I've seen right now and I have seen nearly all of the preseason games. Granted it is just preseason. But we really need senderrick and Clemons to return to form.
I recall times under Coughlin and Del Rio when it's been even worse. There were times under Del Rio where opposing qbs had time to eat a sandwich out there. I'd say that was true for much of his time aside from the year when Bobby McCray looked like a stud and the year when Greg Favors surprised us all.
That said, they looked much better last year, and Clemons was only part of it. They need to get back to that level where sacks kept occuring from all over the place.
I'm looking at PFF right now. In the 2014 preseason we had
Hurries: 36
QB hits: 15
Sacks: 8
Through two games this year we have
Hurries: 41
QB hits: 7
Sacks: 3
So as far as anyone wants to give preseason credence, we're right on track if not better this year I guess.

The numbers are far better than I thought. The Dline did knock some balls down vs NY. We already surpassed QB hurries. We need to be able to punish the QB so hoping that hit and sack numbers can alteast double.
