Who watches preseason NFL games?

[odanny]

These games are unwatchable, probably only for fans of their own team, but I still find myself watching because there is top level (and not top level) college players, some drafted, some not, fighting for a roster spot.

Yesterday Mahomes played and made a defensive end look like he forgot which team he was on. Another kid I've never heard of was QB for the Raiders and he was throwing some great passes. Even Carson Wentz came in for Mahomes and looked like a superstar.

And, Trubisky is awful no matter how much he plays. I can't believe he still can't hit an open receiver and is still in the league.

I’ve watched both Las Vegas Raiders Preseason loses ( will watch the Niners / Raiders game next week )

They are only interesting to see who will be QB. I thought the kid who played the 4th looks better than Aiden or Minshew. Do you know where he played in college?

Carter Bradley will be # 3 ( Not Veteran Nathan Peterman )

Peterman is another who manages to hang on in the league. Glad the new rule is all teams have 3 QB's, I think Bradley will be playing this year.

They used to play their starters in these games

Now, you get to watch one teams third string play the other teams fourth string trying to figure who to cut

The Raiders played many Starters for entire Game ( Especially Defensive Rotational Starters )

I usually watch the last Redskins (or whatever they are called this year) pre-season game for the first half.

These games are unwatchable ...

Still better than everything else on TV ... are you watching Survivor: Bakersfield or Return to Gilligan's Island instead? ...

I know where the "off" switch is ... but DAMN I miss gridiron football ... a summer full of Olympic association football has me biting my fingernails up to the second joint ...

That's interesting, even though I don't understand a word of it.

I hate to admit it but "LOST" on netflix has me hooked.

Six seasons, no negro-casted commercials for the "win".

The first Two Seasons of Lost are the best TV you coulda watched at that time
