timba Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 I'd prefer seeing them get more than that. It's a new system on both sides of the ball, and the more reps they get in a scenario where mistakes are expected and not detrimental to the seasons outcome the better.
Rubes Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 Well, that's at least 4 three-and-outs, so that should take them through the first quarter.
Kelly the Dog Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 Spiller ain't playing. http://blogs.buffalobills.com/2010/09/02/no-spiller-vs-lions/ I would play him with the starters for most of the 12-14 plays with Lynch in there sometimes, too. I imagine that Gailey wants to let the Fins try to gameplan for something they have never seen though.
Sabre Bill Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 Well, that's at least 4 three-and-outs, so that should take them through the first quarter. That's a pretty high standard for our D to live up to, but I like the way you're thinking!! Go Bills!

Spiller is already our most important player, and it's probably not even really close.

When have I ever seen a rookie starter play 6-7 plays out of the 2-3 series with the regular starters in the 4th pre-season game? Every year.

Is this too many snaps? Too little? Opinions please I'd like to see the starters get more snaps then that, but I'm not surprised. I think the Bills' coaching staff (like the coaching staffs of most NFL teams) have figured out who the starters will be and want to see what the second- and third-stringers can do. Seems that most of the final preseason games will be an audition for those who aren't guaranteed a roster spot yet.
