Winning a preseason game isn't even as satisfying as kissing your sister.
No one cares about the final score. Im just saying if Brandon Allen and Auden Tate score 4 TDs against backups im not going to expect that to mean Burrow is going to have a terrible year.
Actually, this Quora study found a small positive correlation between preseason record and regular season record. I wouldn't give up on the season if we happen to win most or all of the preseason games, is all I'm saying. That 2008 Lions going 4-0 in the preseason is like saying that Tom Brady proves the draft rank is meaningless.
