why aren't you seeing other teams play their stars that many minutes?

the Pels are poorly run organization, so some merit to this sentiment.

same time, they have new pieces, old players in new roles, and, already, injury problems. all while trying to install new systems on both sides of the ball (they aren't switching everything with Cousins on the floor). makes some sense to try to get as many reps as is reasonable during preseason
