Ah, that explains it. There was me thinking maybe they pulled a "Bagent" and sent him in for the victory formation kneel downs.
Apparently 3 of the 4 offensive snaps he had were the kneel downs! :lol:
But he played them to perfection!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Week 6 // Bears (3-2) vs Jaguars (1-4)

CW has improved every week and that trend continues this week as well. He gets his first 3 TD passing game and resets the Bears' rookie record for passing yards in a game and tops the 400 yard mark with 402. The good thing about a stout defense is that defense travels and the hopeless Jags finish wi...

He's listed with 4 snaps.

This is the first I've heard of it.
He got five more on FG and PAT as well.

It's not perfect form by Brisker, but it looks like he drops down and his shoulder pad will make first contact near the hip and the side of his helmet would be in the stomach to groin area. Temple lowers his head and leads with the crown of his helmet into the side of Brisker's. That's my beef with ...

Re: Single most important factor for a winning franchise

It all starts with the GM. You get that right and he then gets all the other pieces right. You don't have a string of success as a franchise unless you have good coaching and good QB play. The only way to get that is to have a GM that puts it in places. If you look at the all franchise that have had...

I really don't see that as Herbert's skill set. I have never really though of him as a power back. It seems like a terrible use of his skills. He seems at best when he can make a cut and head down hill. He's got some speed and can be hard to tackle that way. If you get him early or moving sideways ...
