Never heard of that happening before...wow.

 

Report also says they did it for us during our 2-minute drill. The interesting question is who cried uncle first? The coaches would like people to believe if it was a mutual agreement. The report is somewhat inconclusive but definitely a fun read, and another reason for fans to feed into the excitement of this defensive line's potential.

 

Hey Ron, to answer your question - no.

Can't handle it? Don't show the **** up.

 

I do not know. They looked like they decided to help them out this preseason game.

 

coincidence of the pre-season, nothing more...

 

Lolol. They should have brought more lube.

i get why a team might be tempted to make that kind of request but it sounds like a good way to get your players hurt. when players hold back they get themselves hurt. also it adds insult to all the season ticket holders who are forced to buy preseason tickets. the whole thing stinks if its true

Ya...like we carry that stuff around for our DSD4000 (Acme Dong Shrinkage Device).

 

The report indicates this was during practice it doesn't say they did it in the game

 

thanks man i did not realize that.

wake is smart and knows his body and timline, he doesnt give techniques away in preseason, nothing hes been working on, and doesnt release any unneccesary energy...he does the same in practice, its something I noticed a long time ago..hes simply cruising along crusin along...Suh is the same, these are athletes trained almost in a scientific way..these men do not need preseason action..quite frankly, I completely disagree with playing them any more than two series next week..this whole have to play a half and come out in the third is dated, risky, and uneccessary imo..ditto for Suh

 

I read that the 'lack' of pass rush during practise was a pre-arranged agreement by both teams/Head Coaches, beforehand. For what it's worth.

And DJ, completely agree, I'd rather the pre-season games didn't even exist. Teams lose players to these games every year. Pointless IMO. We're talking about professionals who train more now than they ever did. The pre-season is, IMO, nothing more than a relic for a different era kept alive to make money.

If they absolutely want to keep these extra 'games' they should just make them real games and extend the regular season - or not play them at all. Risking players for anything less is stupid and unfair IMO.

 

Myself I wasn't mentioning Suh and Wake. It was more Fede, McCain and the rest of the people who are trying to get a job.

Dieke had a really good sack.

 

Preseason is good to get chemistry going and simulate games for certain plays. But its mostly for training camp bodies to audition for a spot on the roster. Established starters shouldn't play more than a series or two in the first two games. After that, put in the backups the rest of the way. I'd be happy with cutting down to 2 games. 4 is just too much.

From what I've read most coaches typically don't need the pre-season games to know who'll make the cut or not. I'm sure there are exceptions but I'd be curious to see if there was a way to determine the truth - see who is most likely on the chopping block before pre-season and who gets cut in the end.

 

I think 2 pre season games is enough to get some action for the new people trying to make the team. The vets with more than 5 or 6 years of service don't really need that time. Especially a vet with 10 or more years.
