This schedule kind of sucks. They play Monday night and then again on Saturday night. 2 games in 5 days.
That's 4 days between games during the preseason. Does he play the starters less Monday night than he would if they would have played Friday or Saturday? Does he play the starters less on Saturday against the jets? Does he go about it the same way?
Also, what happens at practice Tuesday - Friday? I assume Tuesday and Friday are light days. Does he practice hard on Wednesday and/or Thursday?
It will be interesting to see how he goes about things.
Weird schedule
Playing starters in week 3 as opposed to week 4 gives players a bit of a breather period and more time to heal before week one of the regular season.
