Poll of the Day: How many preseason games?

by Lester A. Wiltfong Jr. on Jul 23, 2011 11:01 AM CDT in Poll

The Hall Of Fame Game will not be played this year, leaving both the Chicago Bears and the St. Louis Rams with the usual four preseason games. Today's poll has nothing to do with the NFL losing that game because of the &*%# Lockout. Today we want to know; How many preseason games do you think the NFL should have?

Between the work that needs to be done on the proposal, the Brady lawsuit, re-certifying the union and actually voting I think it will take AT LEAST a week or two. If it goes two I have doubts that the league will carry on with multiple games when teams have less than a week of practice in.

Should have this year or should have period?

I guess the answer is 2 either way.

Is Jerry Angelo fired yet?

No choice for zero?

For me, it’s between 0 and 2 for this. I’d prefer zero (18-0 rather than 16-4). I’ll take 2 for now…

0 and 2

You just skipped over 1?

If you go in the bathroom, turn off the lights, and say "Da Coach" 5 times while facing the mirror... Ditka will appear and slap the wussy right out of you.

If you're going to have them...

1 doesn’t serve any football use. You can’t really gauge anything out of 1 preseason game. 2 at least gives you the time to see all players in game situations for more than 30 seconds…

I like things fine the way they are. I actually enjoy watching all of the practice squad guys fighting for a spot on the roster.

Just make the preseason games cheaper, thats all we want. But that also means that the NFL can’t rob us blind anymore with them so they won;t do it.

I would like to see televised scrimmages between two teams

Say the Rams and Bears get together and have a 2 hour scrimmage, instead of a preseason game. This way the teams would be more hands on coaching and the viewer could get a sneak peak into that world
