I hope for an injury free game and onto Seattle.
The biggest thing to watch is who will carry Zac's clipboard and what color sneakers will Andy Dalton have on.
The announcers mentioned this in what little I watched it. The NFL IS going to eliminate some preseason games. Really, they have to. All these stadiums are empty. The TV is reduced to low budget commercials by a New Carlisle Ohio auto repair shop that is a small rural hole in the wall and I know they don't have big money for commercials. The NFL is losing money on these preseason snoozers.
The announcers said NFL may cut back from 4 to just 2 and add more regular season or add play-offs.
The Players Union thinks season long enough. Look for NFL to dump preseason game 4 ASAP, start season a week earlier, add a play-off round where week 17 is in January now. Some 10 win teams get left out, so it would work. All this would make money instead of preseason game that loses money, and Money Is A Factor. The NFL is Big Business.
This Will Happen. Preseason Game 4 will be no more.
