Fans and players with large bank accounts would have the preseason eliminated. Lack of the preseason has hurt the Patriots. Belichick has stressed the importance of those games and now Kraft is defending the preseason.
This year not only has it hurt The quarterback battle but it also hurt Newton's ability to grow chemistry with his pass catchers.
Every year the Patriots have undrafted free agents making the roster. J.J. Taylor was originally cut and brought back. Would David Andrews or Malcolm Butler made the team without the preseason playing time, doubtful.
If the NFL wants to eliminate thosegames, those games need to be made regular season games with rules and regulations so those extra 40 guys that aren't gonna be part of the actual roster, have to play.
