So what would be the bad part about that?
We'd have a completely healed all set team ready and willing to go. Rather than a team ravaged with injuries in week 10.
Completely Healed statement and its only March?
I guess you can already predict what possible future injuries can happen come training camp and the exhibition games effect may have on our roster?
While recent history has had the SB champion open the season with a rematch of the Conference Championship game, I don't think its likely for the Pats to open the season against the Colts. One of the reasons is the Pats play 5 exhibition games, one of those games in China. That is asking a LOT of a team.
It will be interesting to see what happens.
I have 20 bucks saying half the team comes down with an "injury" going to China and mostly backups play the entire game.
Considering its the 2nd game of the pre-season, that's a given. The problem is that the teams are expected to bring all their players and the travel does a number on you.

For selfish reasons, I really hope you're wrong.
since it's the 2nd preseason game, how many snaps do you think the starters will take? idk, it seems a little unfair for the 1st string to make it out to a country on the other side of the world, just to take 10 snaps of the game, while on the other hand it woudltn seem fair to have the back ups make the trip, while the starters stay home..
what do you guys think?
Me too. I'd like to fly over to see the game also. But just being able to hear people hit each other would be kinda fun too.
