Olsen: 'Pre-season is a learning experience'

Greg Olsen has said that pre-season is a "learning experience" for the Carolina Panthers.

The NFC South side won their opening pre-season match against the Chicago Bears but lost 14-9 to the Philadelphia Eagles last night.

The tight end told the team's website: "Sometimes you can make too much of a pre-season game. It is a big deal anytime you take the field, you want to play well, you want to win. But at the same time, it is a learning experience against teams you haven't really been game-planning for.

"This is the time that you want to find out what your weaknesses are so you can correct them. That's what the pre-season is all about.

"When you get in game situations, the little stuff gets magnified, whether it's finishing a block or finishing a route. Sometimes things you can get away with in practice just because it's not live can get magnified in the game, especially when you're playing against a team that you're not that familiar with."

The Panthers will face Super Bowl champions the Baltimore Ravens next week.
