Yes, but after the horrible start, which really was a team effort, Pigpen made a game of it for 20 minutes.
Don't mistake me for a Pigpen supporter. On the contrary going into the preseason I felt the biggest mistake by Herm was keeping Huard and Pigpen as the backups to Croyle. I never felt either was worth a roster spot and was actually counter productive when there was other talent available to develop, e.g. Woodson, Martin. I would have been much happier with Culpepper instead of Huard for backup. As a matter of fact I was one of the few on this board that hoped Matt Ryan fell to #5.
But as long as Pigpen is the backup, Croyle is out, and Pigpen continues to improve let him start. Afterall, this is a rebuilding season whether we like it or not.
