NFL 2015

You make some good points BG.

There's not a single team that utilizes the pre-season to get players in game shape and build endurance. Starters play a half in Game 3 of the pre-season, and that's basically it until the 1^st week of the regular season.

Probably no coincidence that Brady, Manning, Rodgers, Carson Palmer and Matt Ryan are a combined 15-0. Veterans that have been with their teams for multiple years and don't need a ton of coaching.

I noticed the same thing going on last year but the newer guys came on strong down the stretch. I'm still not sold on the Falcons being all that (two admitted bad calls by the refs that changed the outcome of the game against Philly, the Cowballs with a backup QB and no Dez and the Giants... Eli nuff said), but time will tell.
