2. You don't sit a healthy person because, "you think it would be better for the long haul." Why not just never play him, because you want to save him for, "games that matter?" It's the same mentality.

C'mon man...giving the knee an extra 3 weeks rest is not the same as playing only in games that matter mentality.

If Burrow comes out with a brace on his knee, which he probably will, is that not a precaution?  Which is all I'm saying waiting 3 more weeks is, a precaution.  I just don't believe you are 100 percent with that type injury at 9 months.  You can be healthy enough to play but that don't mean you're 100.   Why not take a little extra precaution and sit him some extra weeks?  And there's nothing wrong with being optimistic, I get that, but he could have a setback in training camp and then what!?  He will most likely have to sit some weeks.

Hey, I'm going to turn 63 yrs old soon.  I have been a Bengals fan since they came into existence.  I would like nothing more than to see Burrow come back from the injury.  I just don't want it rushed because everyone feels that it's necessary in order for the season to be meaningful.
