The Haskins Threat

[Chief X_Phackter]

The most telling thing to me, beyond what we've seen on the field which has been bad enough, is the fact that his teammates are saying he's not ready. Does that change after ONE full week of practice/reps with the 1s...I don't see it, but maybe he'll get that chance and prove me wrong.

I'm not a fan of him starting mostly because this team is still fighting their asses off. There's obvious holes, and the offense hasn't been good, but they are still fighting. I think they are fighting because they still believe they have a chance to win these games. Does that continue if the coach decides to trot out a kid who gives them ZERO chance to compete? No, I don't think it does. Seriously, the players on that team want to win, and they rightfully expect the coaching staff to put in the players that give them the best shot at doing that.
