Sorry but you are wrong here. I'm talking from a experience from my own playing career stretching more than 15 years. Unger is a veteran so he needs LESS snaps than a rookie or younger player but he needs them. You need snaps to get ready and just get the small details down with the guys next to you and to really get up to speed.

Yep. Not it's so much about Unger but about the younger guys training with him for cohesiveness.

And the other guys need snaps WITH him in there.
