So curious of everyone’s thoughts.
In college, it is often discussed the advantage of playing in bowl games because the team gets to practice those extra 4-5 weeks from end of season until the bowl game. So over the course of 4 years it ends up being basically a whole additional season of reps.
I am trying to decide if this has any effect in the NFL or maybe due to roster turnover being so heavy that it tends to not be s big deal.
Anyway, curious to others thoughts or if anyone has heard this topic discussed before.
I will say that the more higher pressured games played will benefit a player for sure just wondering if there is any additional overall effect.
I mean right now the Lions are on week 3 of extra practice and games. So is that wearing them down or making them better.
