I voted for letting the offensive players come in for a series or two just to get into a little tempo before the season starts, I wouldn't want them going into the Giants game knowing the last time they faced any real competition it resulted in 47-3.

I agree with Blache about the defense though, the best thing for them to do is let them sit and let them stew about what happens, because when they take the field against the Giants they will be hungry to prove the doubters wrong.

I also agree that Mosley has some slim pickins' to choose from if he translates "we're going to play our starters for a series or two to get some upbeat tempo in there" into "we are going to try and win the game."
