    Final preseason game vs. Detroit

    I'm hoping Detroit plays its starters both offensively and defensively for at least a couple series. I'd love to see how we measure up to them in two facets: 1) the OL defending their pass rush, and 2) our D keeping their playmakers in check.

    Also, Sheppard will hopefully play - he's one guy I'm excited about seeing.

      4th game is to evaluate those last 4-8 spots...

        They often play for 1-2 series then come out.

            If the starters didn't play at all last year, how come Trent Edwards went 4/4 for 66 yards in the preseason finale?

              my bad youre right, im thinking of 09. but you have to understand that gailey was new and looking at the starters too. this team is more established than last year. trust me, you wont see fitz or the starters. especially the stars, merriman, dareus, johnson, freddy... etc

                I would be very surprised if the starters didn't see a couple of series except for the obligatory holdouts for precautionary purposes (Merriman, etc)

                    With the issues the Bills have been having on the Oline, not to mention the new roles some are serving on that line, I think the coaching staff would like to get a little time in with team 1.

                      Yeah I think the starters will play a quarter accept for those players who are even slightly dinged up and guareteed a roster spot.. They'll sit.

                          I'd rather the Bills not play any starters in game 4. Our depth has struggled all preseason. This team needs to turn focus towards beating KC. That game will be here quickly, and with the new CBA limiting the amount of practice time teams are allowed, we will need all the prep time we can get for the first team offense and defense. I'd use this game to focus on the Bills depth players, those coming off injury, and players who are fighting for roster spots. It will be the last look before the 53 man roster cut down happens. JMO

                            I expect to see 1 or 2 series from the starters.
