Coaching staff control

Unlike normal preseason games, where the control of tempo and script is lost through the course of competition, these intrasquad scrimmages will allow Joe Judge and his staff to control everything.

While the scrimmages will pit the offense against the defense in a competitive format, Judge and his coordinators will be able to create situations and scenarios and run them to perfection.

If the players make a mistake it’s not just sent into the void. Rather, the issue can be ironed out through repeating cycles. After all, practice makes perfect as they say.

Perhaps more than anything else, this will likely become the most valuable tool for Judge & Co. during these scrimmages.
