I do find it very interesting however, that a team that was bound for the playoffs (I agree) was still willing to
MAKE CHANGES to a pivotal position like QB despite the fact that it could shake things up, so that they'd have a better chance at not just "making the playoffs" (see Texans) but to go deep into the playoffs.
See Gary, real coaches aren't scared to shake things up because it's what's best for the T-E-A-M.
