Maybe benching him helped, he's looked much better since then....of course he's playing against an awful defense right now.
O'Brien has been keeping Strong inactive all these weeks. He was a 3rd round pick for a reason. Give him a chance. Now you see why he needs to be on the field ***Back to Astros***
Remember back when we all expected Hoyer to post career best stats before the season? And then that was quickly dashed by stupid turnovers? Anyone think we may have been right all along?

Hoyer looks fantastic. Loving Strong getting involved. I'm a huge Strong fan, but honestly that was a total fail by that Colts CB. He just stood at the LOS hahaha. But good on Strong for getting in position to make the play.
If he keeps going 8-8 with 2 touchdowns every two drives you will concede an opinion? How noble of you.
That's what it's looking like. That the mistake wasn't naming Hoyer the starter over Mallett. The mistake was yanking him after 3 quarters when OB thought he was the better QB over the course of training camp and the preseason.
