Dadonkadonk Posted August 14, 2018 Posted August 14, 2018 I like the forfeit idea. Fourth preseason game has virtually no value. Maybe it helps decide between a couple of practice squad guys. All risk and no reward. 2

MJS Posted August 14, 2018 Posted August 14, 2018 Whoever is not the starter will play. It will probably be Peterman or Allen. What's the issue?

The starters will play little, if at all in the final preseason game. I can’t imagine that Beane or McCoach would be thrilled about putting any of our current QBs out there, especially for quarters 2-4. You’ll have a QB exposed behind a craptastic line for much of the game. So, your options are: Go with the flow and what happens, happens. Go against the grain and play starters at least the first half in game 4 still exposing a QB to a possible beating in the second half? Sign a journeyman QB to take the hits. Or do you think that McC or P-man will be moved for whatever once the starter emerges? This would open up a roster spot for a journeyman QB. Expand Is there possibly another Simms out there who could take this position of which you speak?

However, if you have a guy that is your for sure number 3 then he should get the time in as he is likely to see little, if any time, during the regular season.
