Pros: Gets the young QB reps.
More exposure to the new offense.
Can evaluate how he looks in a game after his injury.
Lets Trent work out "rust".

Cons: Assuming other starters do not play much (Evans, Lynch, Royal, etc.) the full benefits will not be there.
If the starting O-line does not play (Peters is already out and Walker likely won't play) is it worth the risk on injury with Bell and Chambers out there?
If you play the other starters with him, thier injury risk is greater.
Trent himself could get hurt. This risk is higher if his mobility is limited at all.



After evaluating, I hope he does not play or plays only one or two series.

the ONLY thing I care about is risk of injury, so I wouldnt play him a single snap.. He's not going to get any better or worst playing 1 or 2 series and handing the ball off most the time.

Its not worth it to me.

Trent should sit. The Bills can't afford a QB mishap. :nervous:

The first team offense should play one series...period.

At least one.

Trent has only had what 30 plays so far this preseason?

Just what we need the team to play the entire first half of week 1 with little to no cohesion.

One and done. I don't want him going into the opener with more than 2 weeks off.

Gotta give him at least a series and maybe two if the first is a 3 and out.
