I want the games...simply because they are played already and might as well mean something. Weeks 1 and 4 of the pre-season are a joke now. They mean zero, particularly the last game. Yes there may be a guy or 2 that make the coaches change their minds one way or the other after that game, but honestly the roster is more or less set going into it.

Now if they just wanted to drop 2 pre-season game and go to a 16 game season, I would be on board with that though we will never see it because its a gate lost for every owner. So we are left with the alternatives...and IMO the best is go with 2 exhibition games and start er up.
