I understand the perspective that Mett needs more reps, but realistically, how much better will Mett he be from playing one quarter vs. two?


Well it could get him an extra 6-7 throws which could be big if there was something in particular they wanted to work on during the game. It would give him the possibility of running a 2 minute drill before the half. Also, just an extra quarter of getting timing down with the rest of the offense, which cannot be duplicated at game speed in practice.

I'm more concerned with Rivers lack of experience, if Mett goes down


I agree that its important to get Rivers some snaps, however it is still more important for Mett to get the snaps and experience first and foremost. He is the starting quarterback and he still is incredibly inexperienced.

Bolden definitely does not need any snaps in this game...you say let Rivers get 2 quarters, well thats fine let Mett and Rivers play a whole half.

How many teams out there are working a third quarterback in their rotation? Mett needs the experience and it would be nice to have the ability to get Rivers in there to get some as well.

If our 3rd string QB a year ago had experience, he might have been considered an option last January 9th.
