Message: <blockquote data-quote="Mondio" data-source="post: 808870" data-attributes="member: 10441">they should absolutely play  more in the preseason, but no I don't view it the same.  Right now is what they play for. This isn't the audition, the tryout, the scout team, these are the money games.  Preseason is about installs, learning and getting into playing shape.  Just like I don't plan to hit the gym after a 3 week layoff like I'm setting world record lift attempts, i would expect football players to approach it the much the same in the preseason. However, once the real deal rolls around, mentally and physically i'm in it till the end.   Every person I've ever known that ever amounted to anything sports related had the same mentality.  Get me to the game and let me go.  Once i've done the learning phases, my body is in game shape, i'm hardened and tested and in the real stuff, don't tell me, ahhh, just tone it down, doesn't matter as much as it used to.  I don't like giving players mental reasons to check out early.  It's not time to check out.  There are 2 weeks left.and it's not about rallying around beating the ****ing jets or lions.  It's about a player that has been struggling to do something all year long and hasn't quite gotten it, and because he's kept his mental focus and edge till the end, now he does.  He ran the route like Rodgers wanted to and he hit him for a TD.  He zigged when he should have zigged and it was awesome. And he takes that moment and that confidence into the offseason.  It can be powerful.  Just as telling a team to check out early can.</blockquote>
