NFL teams start their starting offense during the first half of the 3rd preseason game. That means Drew and company will probably play the entire first half of next week's game. Why play them most of the first half of the 2nd preseason game?

Vitt's insistence on playing offensive starters last night until practically halftime shows poor judgement. Sure, o-line should play... they should practice blocking and running game, etc. etc. But why would we risk injury to our most valuable player on the team is beyond me.
While I totally agree with you, every other team in the league has kept their starting QB in the game for the first half of the game this week. I think it was more about Brees competitiveness and wanting to stay in the game until he could get a good drive going than anything. Vitt needs to grow some balls and tell his starting QB no.
