That doesn't help the development of the young guys any further. Winning? Who gives a crap about winning? This team wouldn't win no matter who was in at QB.

Three and outs severely cutdown offensive snaps.
Limited time hurts young players. Will Franklin and Jamaal Charles need a QB that can get them the football.

Bowe's going to get his regardless of who's at the helm.
He has that kind of talent.

This offense had success running the ball yesterday, but only after the Atlanta defense gave them room to run. By the start of the Second Half they assumed we'd come out throwing the ball. Which would've been the case if we had a respectable signal caller.

Winning football games is what Herman Edwards, Carl Peterson and this team is being paid to do.
This is the NFL. You don't tank football games so you can evaluate a 7th Round draft pick.

Jamal Charles dropped at least 3 passes yesterday that hit him right in the hands with appropriate 'touch'. That's on him, not Thigpen.

Of course they WANT to win games. Having Damon Huard in there wont bring wins.

Can't argue with that.

But if you can honestly tell me that we did not squander a half-dozen possessions to begin the game I'll be quiet. If you don't think an entire half of offensive futility is hurting these young guys... You're crazy.

It'll give you a chance to win games.
Thigpen does not.

Did you look at Charles stats? He had both more carries and receptions than either of the 2 previous games.
I don't think Thigpen is the answer, but there is absolutely no reason to put Huard out there unless everyone else is injured.
