I think it sucks for the fans to have a game cut short, but honestly if the coaches got what they wanted out of the joint practices and the game up to that point, I'm ok with them ending it early. Apparently some players were a bit shook by Bolden's injury, and if they want to call it, let them. Gets you to the post-game bar that much faster, and the quality of 4Q preseason is rarely good anyway.
