We need to make sure that all these guys get off the field on their own 2 feet and will be prepped for the real matchup against them in a few weeks. Preseason is to get prepped and it is to find the final 53 players on the roster.

I think the Chargers will get some work with the starters in the game, but they will likely sit after a quarter of work. It would be impressive to see the offense march down the field again with Philip Rivers going perfect in his outing on the field. It would be equally as impressive to see the defense get pressure on Russell Wilson and bring him down for a couple of sacks. We will see what our boys can do!

If you are new to the open thread post, this is where fans head down to the comments section to share their thoughts on the game as the action goes down. There still is 4 hours till game time at the time this post is going up, but I know you all will find plenty to talk about.
