Question Re: CAR @ Pitt

[YourManInAmsterdam]

Here's something I've been curious about for awhile.

 

We all know that the fourth preseason game is garbage time; a last chance for guys on the bubble to make the the team and separate themselves from the rest. However, Rivera has stated that he wants his starters getting more reps at Pittsburgh. It remains to see how far he goes with that given Cam is certainly out.

 

Anyway, to the question at hand. Someone in the know, help me out.

 

Do the staffs of opposing teams ever communicate before a preseason game to discuss how much they plan to play starters and such? Or are decisions made largely in reaction to what the other coach is doing on the field?

Definitely. Kinda like "I'm gonna see what this guy has,do you wanna check what you have?"

I don't know for sure but it probably depends on the coach. Just like some coaches will do joint practices with their preseason opponents in the week leading up to their game. I'm sure those coaches talk before hand. Maybe guys like Rivera who don't do those joint practices won't communicate with them. But I don't know for sure.

I think they call each other about IRing guys. "hey Bill ! its Gettlemagic....Im going to be putting Tyler G on waivers and sneak him on the practice squad....whatchu gonna do? lol

Rivera would probably do it with past teammates like Lovie Smith and Lesley Frazier. I would hope he wouldn't with that fugger in NE or the pill head in NOLA.

yes/yes

I only ask because, if I were a head coach or GM, I wouldn't want a starter (or even a key back up) getting hurt by some long-shot trying make a name for himself. Desperation (for a job) can make a man do crazy things.

Our OL and patched together secondary need some reps.

I agree. I would add I think our first string O should get some quick work. A just in case, so we are prepared if DA HAD to start week 1. Let DA have some more live action with the WRs

Our defensive front 7 shouldn't see the field

Shazier will eat our backups.

Whatever the case is, the gameplan will be very much vanilla since the teams will play each other when games actually count...
