I don't care about losing a pre-season game BUT I don't get the strategy. Did Ridder even play 1 down in pre-season? I know Bijon played a little but what in the sam frick was a strategy of "don't start or play the starters"?

It appears a lot of teams went with that strategy. So can we just stop pre-season by God?

They don't do it in CFB so if "amateurs" don't need it, why do "pros"?

Yeah I didn't get the need to play that game at all unless Smith just wanted to make a final decision on some folks based on their play vs a teams first stringers.

They decided that with his many years of experience and multiple pro bowls, he didn’t need the reps.

He played in game 2. Had a nice drive. Pitts had a nice 1 handed grab. London had a few catches. They looked good
