Preseason is about player evaluation, not team/scheme evals.

The winless Lions were 4-0 that preseason.

I hope.

There is no reason to watch preseason. It doesn't foreshadow anything. It is irrelevant.

Week 2 will be the early-season measuring stick.

I agree it is for evaluation, and it's not a big deal if you lose.
But there isn't much time now to get it together.

Also, preseason means nothing.

Most of us want to see GB in the Super Bowl, but preseason is not the time to anguish over poor performances. With 80 to 90 players rotating in and out of games, players are being evaluated for the final roster. It is a time to look at linemen, and Special Teams players. When the 53 man roster is finally set, and the Coaches have a better picture of who will be doing what, then use the word TEAM !

If you can bear to watch the game, you can clearly see The Eagles making substitutions almost every play.

In a real game, The Packers would be allowed to substitute also, they chos3 to stay in their base the whole time and that is where The mismatches occurred .

When The Packers run their hurry up they will not substitute, hoping to create mismatches depending on what defense is on the field.

Pretty positive if/when The Packers play The Eagles again There Will be a game plan in effect to counter .
