i hate that argument because it ignores the fact that Brennan also had other third stringers along side him. He had third stringers blocking for him. He had third stringers catching passes from him. Also you have to remember that in a preseason game, the starters usually arent trying that hard - their primary focus is not getting hurt. 3rd stringers, on the other hand, are guys fighting for jobs. They go all out and hold nothing back.
That said, the only thing you can really read into a pre-season performance is his comfortability in a system. Looking at our backups, by all appearances, Brennan was very comfortable and Collins wasnt. We'll see how they look in pre-season this coming year.
