I feel like their only thought is to make it through preseason with the least injuries possible… Duke mentioned in one of his pressers that is was key this year to stay healthy. To me, they’ve taken that maybe too far to a fault, but I think it explains the weirdness of the play calling. Avoiding putting anyone in a risky situation… but those situations will come in week 1 so I’m not sure what the hesitation is.
