Yes our preseason was not what coaches wanted but as I said earlier NONE of it matters this season.

Ok... so why is that the backups we line up out there 4 games in a row get humiliated by the opponents back ups? Luck? Just random chance? If the league is 95% horrible backups wouldn’t you atleast want to compete against other teams back ups and evaluate? Surely wasn’t the case this year. To be honest I think a high school team could beat the back ups we fielded in preseason.

Well the Ravens take preseason more seriously than any team in football so week 1 is a write off. 

Eagles have a top 3 roster in football so naturally their depth is stronger. 

Phins played Rosen Vs our backups , and he likely should be starting week 1 but they chose Fitz to protect him and is a first round QB from the year previous. And then week 4 is just full of random players for most teams. 

So yeah it's pretty meaningless. Don't get me wrong I'm not saying our depth is good or anything, just that most of the league has depth you don't want on the field at any point of the game. Our depth is probably below average compared to the rest, but even the above average teams are mostly full of bad backups, it's just how the league is.
