The Chiefs starters always see some significant time during preseason games so they can get up to the speed of the NFL for the start of the season. Yes, there's risk of injury. But I think the Bengals sitting of the starters almost the entire preseason schedule has been tried and failed spectacularly, costing them the postseason the last two years.

I think you're right.   My fear is that we'll give the starters just a little bit more time than last year and think it's enough.  And it won't be.   There are so many timing issues that simply can't get sorted without playing against other starters.

I like what Ocho suggested: 1-2 drives, a quarter and a half in the three games.
