I'd be completely fine if the starters only play 1-2 series in the rest of the preseason games. Just doesn't seem like the risk is worth the reward.

As I have said for eons, the NFL Preseason is a useless meat grinder. No need whatsoever for there to be a single exhibition game (what they used to be called), let alone four. But before anyone says "they need the practice/game experience", ask yourself: do you see this at the college--or even high school levels? If bare-faced kids don't need it, why do more experienced men need it? They don't.It's the NFL...hence it's just about the loot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

College teams schedule games against garbage ass 1AA or small conference schools as their "preseason" and a most HS's host game scrimmages against other teams in full pads, hitting and refs. So yes they do lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Tigre Posted August 17, 2016 Report Share Posted August 17, 2016 The worst college team on any powerhouse team's schedule still counts as a win in the real schedule. Whereas, winning or losing to the Vikings in mid-August, and sustaining possible long-term injuries to important players in the process, does not provide anything of value, and absolutely no benefit to the real season record. Albeit a very long time ago, I played HS football, and never once scrimmaged against another school. I also follow quite closely, a nearby Division I HS school, and have never seen them scrimmage another school either. Not saying it doesn't happen, I just haven't seen it. And how, actually, is this of any relevance to the NFL-mandated meat grinder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RhodeIslandFan Posted August 20, 2016 Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 Toe injury is nothing to mess with. With a man his size it'll take much longer than 2-3 weeks. Even than he could still re injure it if he returns to soon. Don't be surprised if you don't see him until week 6 up in New England Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Le Tigre Posted August 20, 2016 Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 A Stealer fan told me this morning that neither Benny, Brown, or Bell have seen the field yet. Even Bug-Eyes has figured out the risk-taking drill with preseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thezerawkid Posted August 20, 2016 Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 I wonder if teams are obligated to commit and field complete teams for preseason purposes. Or, could they send a message to the league by just forfeiting and holding their guys back from action. Just musing aloud on the board here. Anybody ever ponder that stuff?
