Really, there could be three preseason games and nothing of consequence would change. It just makes it harder to evaluate talent in game situations and what guys u do and don't want to keep on the 53 man roster.

Well, really the problem with losing preseason games is the hundreds of millions of dollars in lost revenue. Owners and players don't want to get out there to make sure everyone is healthy and ready to play the opener. It's really to get that money

Yep too much money at stake, which is why they'll get a deal done.

Well, without preseason games the hot dog vendor doesn't get paid, the ushers don't get paid, the custodians don't get paid...so they're looking out for everyone

Funny how money and greed effect sport: in France this season a rugby club was taken several points in the standings because they hadn't enough money, and now we're talking about loosing nfl games because there's too much money
