I think it's like Steve Young said on MNF last night - "September is the new preseason".
Wonder why the Pats gave their starters so many snaps in preseason? The chatter I'm hearing is that BB didn't like getting slapped around by the Chiefs in Week 1 last year.... Maybe that'll start a new trend... use preseason to get ready for the real thing....

The whole league punted on the preseason. Because of that offense was way behind in week 1, especially for teams without a returning HC and veteran QB. Only Ryan Fitzpatrick really bucked that trend, and he permanently defies all trends.
Our team looked entirely unprepared and you could absolutely say September is the new preseason for us. I think that's awful coaching. Each of the 16 games counts the same and we're unlikely to make the playoffs by more than a game when all is said and done.
Lucky for us Tennessee and Indy looked awful. Jacksonville won but looked awful on offense. The AFC South had crawled up past terrible to mediocre, but it looks like it's slid right back down to competing for the worst division in football.
