Stanzi: Every 2011 Preseason Snap

I'd take the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th plays of the game for Stanzi vs Baltimore any day of the week.

That's exactly what I thought when I read his comment. Not trying?

Haley messed up. He didn't have the team prepared for the preseason. When Cassel got hurt in the 4th game, he panicked. I guarantee Cassel broke some ribs on that hit. That's why Haley didn't give Stanzi any reps in the 4th game. They thought Palko would have to go week 1 and gave him all the snaps the rest of that game. Palko knew the playbook better than Stanzi so Haley went with him despite the obvious differences in physical skill sets.
