New Orleans Saints comment of the day: Here's why preseason games are important

Nothing has been decided about going to an 18 game schedule yet, I am absolutely against it. 16 is enough. All too often as it is, the last 2 or 3 games don't matter as play off positions are already locked up, do we want 4 or 5 meaningless games at the end of the season? Also its a real grind for the players, and it could shorten even more what are already short careers in the NFL. I"m fine with cutting preseason games but not with adding them to the reg. season.
