And it probably has some merit. But as has been mentioned numerous times it would be great to have home field and game off in playoffs, to say the least.

I get being rested for the long haul and the safe to prevent injury aspect.  However, I don't think that anyone is asking for them to go out and play a complete game in preseason, or even a full half.  I do think that especially in a pass first offense, where timing and communication are so critical, it is important for the 1st team to at least run a few drives to make sure that things are ready to click in real action.  As for the OL, they look like they could have used at least a couple of entire first halves of work.  Not to take anything away from Cleveland's pass rushers, but both OBJ and Williams looked lost.
