[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 564192"] I don't agree. When discussions of cutting preseason to 2 games while expanding the regular season to 18 games was floated, McCarthy stated his disagreement. It is his view that preseason games are essential in evaluating young talent. You'd think this would be common sense but when it comes to increasing revenue the NFL tends to err on the side of going too far. What McCarthy did not mention is how lackluster and often downright sloppy much of the play across the league happens to be during the first 2 or 3 weeks of the regular season. Less preseason play certainly wouldn't help matters. Cutting back on the quality of your product because you reckon the average customer won't notice is the kind of thinking normally associated with slippery slopes. [/QUOTE]
