You run the Kansas City Chiefs.
How long are you playing the starters against the Green Bay Packers this Thursday?
This question was brought up on my visit to 610 Sports today. Danny Parkins would keep most of the starters out of this game completely. Carrington Harrison and I figured having them play a series or two would be best. Romeo Crennel's past history suggests the starters will see two series of action.
It's important for the Chiefs to end this preseason on a positive note but not important enough to expose anyone to potential injury in a game that doesn't count. The Chiefs starters should play a maximum of two series on Thursday and you hope they put up a scoring drive in one of those series'.
Romeo Crennel has been fairly traditional in his approach to the preseason, which is why I'm thinking one or two series' for the starters.
That's my take. What's yours?
