In what is widely considered the dress rehearsal to the regular season, the Skins will take on the Ravens in the third preseason game tonight. It is the Battle of the Beltway.
The big story is who is starting at QB. Don't think it matters too much who starts as both QBs will get time with the starters. Their play tonight will certainly have an impact on who the regular season starter is going to be. Not sure if either one knows yet who is starting but they have both been taking reps with the starters this week in practice.
Either way, it's a good test for the Skins and a good barometer for where we stand. There is no question we are in rebuilding mode. What you really have to love is that the air seems much cleaner at Redskins Park. No more are the distractions of Haynesworth and McNabb and both players and coaches can focus on football. When ever you hear a player or coach speak, they seem much more happy and confident. That is huge. I also like that we have gotten much younger and that there is competition at several key positions (RB and WR namely).
Should be fun tonight.
