I'm watching this Cowboys/Bengals game. Kitna comes in, and I find myself bored. Of course, I knew coming into this what to expect. About 10 minutes of interesting football.
Don't get me wrong. I love the sport. But I can't sit and watch 2nd, 3rd, 4th stringers. Not for teams I don't care about, and not even for our beloved Broncos. I rarely watch full preseason games, even for the Broncos. I generally get bored when starters come out. Bad fan, I know.
The only time I've ever gone deep into a preseason game was when Cutler was getting major reps. We all remember a beautiful deep pass from Cutler to Scheffler @ Detroit a few years back.
But will this be the most interesting preseason for us ever? Not only do we have the rookie QB to watch, but don't we also want to see Quinn put some work in? And that's before even mentioning the starters. We legitimately have reasons to watch every minute of these games.
It's weird and exciting.
