it goes to show what an absolute joke the preseason is. Week 4 of the preseason is like watching the pro bowl. It needs to be fixed.

 

18 regular season games, 2 preseason games with a 2 week preseason bye before kickoff weekend is all they need.

 

Enough of the glorified practices that players like this get teased in. he'll be cut come Friday.

 

Ok Mark. Nice summary of your article in Buffalo News

Except you left out it would be great to see fans organize mass protests and let the NFL teams play in front of utterly empty stadiums this week.

 

And how it would be great if Sports Reporters did not get paid to watch the game and write up on it since they are sticking to same principles they want the NFL to hold.

 

In order for NFL to extend to 18 games the NFLPA is going to insist that all salaries be bumped up 12.5% (2/16) since NFL has never paid them 'per game'. And the networks are going to resist such a raise in contract even if they got 'real' games opposed to 'preseason' games to show.

 

Now where is all of this new money going to come from to pay for it? Think they can get enough from via a GoFundMe effort or will the NFL need to create a XGSL (Extra Games seat license) for the games?

Joe Licata is currently a Bengal and I think they'd be a little upset if we tried to sign him today. Now, they might sign him (or someone else who gets cut) on Tuesday if the Bengals release him and Austin Trainor might not even make it to the game on Thursday.

licata threw a pick 6 tonight and then benched for Keith Wenning. He's all ours tomorrow!

SIgn a QB just to play a preseason game? Hmm.. Can we sign a whole team to play all of the preseason games while our normal roster watches from the sidelines? Maybe that should be our new developmental league?

And keep our real starters in sensory deprivation tanks hooked to VR headsets.
