Except it's not evidence that playing the starters in the preseason helps. We lost plenty of openers back when the starters did play in preseason, like in 2018 (in 2020, there was no preseason, so nobody played). In 2021, when the starters didn't play in preseason, we put up 29 points and 450 yards on offense against the defending SB champions, and that was with our kicker (who DID play in the preseason) missing three kicks.This is evidence of why I want the starters to get some playing time in preseason. Even if it's just a couple of series.
This year we have a new WR, security blanket TE from last year gone and security blanket RB from last year gone.
If things go sideways on offense Sunday night, McCarty needs to be asked some hard questions from the media.
Lost that one and then won 11 in a row.The 2016 opener was one of my more unpleasant visits to AT&T Stadium.
