And with that, we're onto the regular season. On Thursday night, the final week of the preseason came and went with all 32 teams in action. The final checkpoint before the regular season has finally been pa sed. The Long Night is over. Real football is le s than a week away. We made it.On Thursday night, Daniel Jones put the finishing touches on a fantastic preseason; if there were a preseason MVP award (thank goodne s there's not), he'd probably be the runaway winner. Josh Gordon made his return to the field, and it didn't take him long to impre s. Demaryius Thomas looked healthy and ready for the regular season. Ryan Fitzpatrick won the starting job over Josh Rosen, . And Dwayne Haskins continued to flash potential.That's the short version of Thursday night. The longer version is below, where you can find the most important takeaways from the final night of the preseason. And because Will Brinson, John Breech, and I broke down Thursday night's action and how the preseason as a whole has changed the way we view certain teams.In the meantime, onto the takeaways from Thursday night.Scores and scheduleThursday 31, 12 ( ) 13, 6 ( ) 27, 23 ( ) 6, 0 ( ) Brian Flynn Kids Jersey 25, 19 ( ) 20, 16 ( ) 31, 29 ( ) 20, 7 ( ) 19, Bears 15 ( ) 27, 20 ( ) 16, 13 ( ) 22, 10 ( ) 17, 15 ( ) 20, 7 ( ) 17, 15 ( ) 27, 24 ( )Daniel Jones wraps up impre sive preseasonIt's only preseason. It doesn't mean that much. But the fact remains that oft-maligned No. 6 pick Daniel Jones submitted an impre sive preseason that surpa sed our expectations for him. Entering Thursday night, Jones had gone 25 of 30 (83.3%) for 369 yards (12.3 yards per attempt), two touchdowns, no interceptions, and a 140.1 pa ser rating. Drawing the start against the Patriots on Thursday night, Jones proceeded to complete all four of his pa ses for 47 yards (11.8 average) and a 115.6 pa ser rating.Check out the touch on this downfield pa s to Golden Tate, because it was sweet: What a beauty | New York Giants (@Giants) All together, Jones went 29 of 34 (85.2%) for 416 yards ( Craig Hartsburg Jersey 12.1 average), two touchdowns, no interceptions, and a 137.3 pa ser rating this preseason. Now, he heads to the bench with Eli Manning still positioned ahead of him on the depth chart.Jones did all that he could to emerge with the starting job entering the regular season, but he's going to be forced to wait a little while longer to become the Giants' new starting quarterback. Given just how poorly Manning has played in recent years and just how sharp Jones looked in the preseason, don't be surprised if Jones replaces Manning during the first half of the regular season. At this point, it feels inevitable.Josh Gordon immediately impre ses Jason Spezza Jersey almost two weeks ago, Gordon made his return to the field on Thursday night. It didn't take him long to remind everyone just how good of a receiver he's capable of being if he can stay on the field.On the third play of the Patriots' opening series, Gordon hauled in a 19-yard pa s from rookie quarterback Jarrett Stidham. Welcome back, ! NFL (@NFL) Evidently, the Patriots wanted Gordon to shake off the rust, because Gordon ended up getting four total targets on the opening series. He didn't come down with another catch on that series, but as the catch above indicates, Gordon will likely be the Patriots' best downfield threat during the upcoming season -- a suming, of course, he remains eligible to play. With Gordon and a healthy Demaryius Thomas joining Julian Edelman (all of them started on Thursday night), the Patriots' receiving group is actually slightly deeper than usual, which should help them overcome the lo s of Rob Gronkowski.Demaryius Thomas catches two touchdownsSpeaking of Thomas -- the former Broncos and Texans receiver who is coming off an Achilles injury at the age of 31 -- the veteran wideout looked even more impre sive than Gordon. Not long ago, we weren't entirely sure if Thomas would be on the final regular season roster. After Thursday night, it looks like Thomas could become a major part of the Patriots' pa sing attack.Catching pa ses from Stidham, Thomas hauled in seven of his eight targets for 87 yards and two scores. Demaryius Thomas not able to create separation on the release but comes back hard on the deep comeback and has plenty vs. Terrell Sinkfield Jr. One of DT's bread-and-butter routes. Michael Giardi (@MikeGiardi) That throw. That catch. | New England Patriots (@Patriots) Another one for ! | New England Patriots (@Patriots) Reminder: He . He already looks ready for the regular season.Dwayne Haskins flashes more potentialLike Jones, Haskins won't be on the field when the regular season begins. The Redskins' starting job Unlike Jones, Haskins wasn't nearly flawle s in the preseason. But Haskins did flash plenty of potential throughout the preseason -- and it continued against the Ravens on Thursday night.Drawing the start, Haskins completed 10 of his 17 pa ses (58.8%) for 104 yards (6.1 average), one touchdown, no interceptions, no sacks, and a 96.2 pa ser rating. Late in the first quarter, he led an eight-play, 75-yard scoring drive that included a 25-yard completion and culminated with a touchdown pa s from outside the pocket. Dwayne Haskins with a pretty to s for 25 yards! NFL (@NFL) 7 was HYPED after that TD Washington Redskins (@Redskins) Haskins' final preseason numbers aren't overly impre sive -- 32 of 58 (55.2%) for 409 yards Gemel Smith Men Jersey (7.1 average), two touchdowns, two picks, and a 74.6 pa ser rating -- but in every game, he demonstrated the kind of talent that made him a first-round pick. Now it's about becoming more consistent and eliminating some of the negative plays we also saw on display this summer.The good news for Haskins is that he'll have time to develop before the Redskins insert him into the fray. The bad news for Haskins is that when he does become the starter, which should happen at some point during the upcoming season, he'll be joining an offense that might be and a team that appears to be likely to mi s the playoffs for a fourth straight season. And if that happens, there's a good chance Jay Gruden will be a goner and Haskins will be learning a brand new offense next offseason.But Anton Khudobin Jersey at the very least, Haskins appears to have the nece sary skills to succeed at the next level. At this stage in his development, that's all we're able to conclude. Even still, Haskins has already given the Redskins plenty of reasons to be optimistic about their long-term future, even if their short-term future remains depre singly bleak. Cowboys' Olumba pushes for roster spotAs the Cowboys work to figure out who deserves to contribute to the depth of their increasingly talented secondary, second-year cornerback Donovan Olumba has continued to make a case for himself.
