Goff, Wentz and Lynch all looked pretty "weak". All are listed as 3rd string. Probably for the best. None of them jumped out to me as Day 1 starters regardless of what the leering press tried to pass off to us.

I think Lynch might end up being the best out of those three. Screams Brock Osweiler. A solid starter down the line.

I would like for them to cut the pre season down to 2 games and then either add more playoffs games or add two more regular season games while giving each team 2 byes during the reg season instead of just 1.
We have enough playoff teams as it is. I'd rather they go back to playing 6 preseason games and go back to 14 regular season games. Its way too cruel to expect these athletes to take any more punishment. 16 games it too much IMO.

6 pre season games? No way. I don't think there's any chance they'll increase it, if anything they'll decrease the amount of pre season games.

Let me tell you about the days when they had 6 preseason games. It sucked and it sucked bad.

I don't like the preseason, and I'm always thrilled when it's finally over, but I think it's fine as is. The last thing I ever want to see the NFL do is expand the playoffs. I love that only a small percentage of the league makes the playoffs every year, and that you need to really be an elite team (well, or play in a **** conference), to make them.
