[QUOTE="Lare, post: 89859, member: 114"] IMO, they should only have two preseason games. In the first place, the starters aren't playing all out anyway because they're mostly trying to stay healthy for the regular season. And they're also not running many of the plays they'll play in the regular season because they don't want to tip off their opponents as to what they're going to do when the real games start. And as to the backups I'm guessing that, with one or two exceptions, the coaches pretty much already know who the 53 players on the final roster are going to be and who they'll try and get on the practice squad. So all in all, about all the extra games accomplish is bringing in some extra bucks for the home team and getting some players needlessly injured. [/QUOTE]
