Mike said all practices were scripted before the regular season begin. Type of Practice can be changed due various issues at the time that practice was scheduled. Issues such as Health of team and where the team is at that particular time.
Mike said he decided to cut back Thursday practice and not have the team in full pads Thursday due to health of the team and there will be a short week coming up due to Thanksgiving game at Detroit.
He also cut the Thursday practice by 15 minutes. And he brought the team inside near the end of practice, in order to work on some things could be done better inside the Don Hutson Center than outside on practice field. Could be due to weather conditions, practice field conditions .
Mike sometime changes practices during training camp for similar reasons.
Nothing to do with lying to anybody,. He feels he has be flexable with scripted practice schedule that was done many months ago.
