How Many Games Should We Test Haskins?

If the game is close but Haskins struggles the whole game, then i think the decision should be made prior to the Rams game. There is still time that a QB change could spark our offense and win us a couple more games. The season isn't lost yet, but we aren't doing anything well with Haskins. I dare say he played better last year under Bill Callahan.

Two things for the bold part - (1) Callahan wanted the team to run on all downs if possible, Haskins would only throw when it's 3rd down and long. (2) O'Connell had a full offseason and season to work with Haskins and it showed the benefits when Callahan finally allowed O'Connell to call plays in the last two (?) games.
