I must’ve missed when we became so good we could rest our best defensive player in a road division game
Agreed, you must have missed that. I'm more worried about the BE-SF's tanking and getting Ed Oliver than I am about them winning games.
Well, Clowney and Watt's playing together is usually a disappointment anyway. Sadly, it's a blessing when one of them DNP's.
I think if Mariota played, Clowney would've been more likely to play. No need to add more strain with Gabbert. Watch. As I say this, Gabbert becomes Brady-incarnate today.
