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

The Pels played 6 presesason games last year. This year they have 4 and the coaching staff is treating it like 3 because of Memphis being the last preseason game and first regular season opponent.
AD played 98 minutes last preseason. This season he's played 85 and is probably done. The people that are acting like he's being exposed to injury risk at a higher than normal rate just aren't doing the math.
