[QUOTE="sschind, post: 941326, member: 10247"] So if a QB throws for 8 TDs in the first game and doesn't throw another all year he holds the single season record becasue it maybe took another QB 2 or three games to pass him. As far as the record books representing facts, the fact is the record is for most yards gained in one season. Not the most yards gained in one season of X number of games. A season is however many games the league says it is. I do get your point and I might say yeah but Adams got it in a 17 game season while Nelson did it in a 16 game season but Adams will still be the record holder of record and will be in the record books. I have no problem with with the record books also putting in the number of games in a season. Don Hutson had 1211 yards in 11 games in 1942. Does that mean the Packers record is 1211 since I don't think any WR has passed that number by week 11 since. I don't think he is suggesting that the first 4 weeks are played with backups with the idea of evaluating talent. More like the starting talent is still trying to find its groove and figure everything out so the games seem more like preseason games. I honestly don't see eliminating preseason games but I can definitely see them dropping it to 2 if they want to add an 18th game to the regular season. I agree with Krabs on one point though I don't think more than a handful of players play themselves onto a team in the preseason games. The vast majority of your 53 man roster have cemented their spots in training camp. I do think it can help practice squad players immensely though. [/QUOTE]
