I think maybe the preseason pendulum has swung too far in favor of not playing starters. I get injury concerns, but guys need time to play together outside of comfortable practice situations.

Did the Saints have any joint practices this preseason like they had a few times in the past with the Patriots? Those always seemed like they helped more than the actual preseason games.
Also, what was the rationale behind the NFL changing regular season OT to 10 minutes? Did they claim it was for player safety?
