    Yeah you do that.  But you should first think about the role of the colour guy and the fact that this is sports/entertainment and there's two fan bases that he must play too.

    There is probably a darned good reason why he isn't playing now, and its not likely his athleticism .

    You may not like the change that disallows players from contacting the kicker, but the kickers are right up there in importance with qbs.  Without them you can't convert FG, Points after touchdowns, Kickoffs or punts.   kickers are not easily replaced.

    Look.. There are a few posters that are "holier then thou" and when their personal opinions differ from yours will attach your manhood and personal character instead of actually debating their opinion.. It gets tiresome, but there are enough great posters that offset the delusional.
    There are even more that reject the jet package, but i assure you, its the most elite, tactically sound play any offence can run.  if you disagree you are ****.

    when asked a question such as "does Nichols throw for enough yards" I would have to say that it depends as 'enough' is a relative word and could vary depending on what it's referring to.  If you are referring to if he's throw for enough yards for us to win, the answer would be 'yes'.... one could easily come to the conclusion that while his total passing yards in each specific game would generally be considered a low total, it was enough to help get us a win so therefore any additional yards could be viewed  unneeded...
    if you are referring to if he has thrown for enough yards to only help us win, but also the extra yards that could be expected from in game situational manner, yards that would help keep our offense on the field and their offense off the field, I'd say 'both yes and no'...  in game 1 my answer would be yes, even though that game was the lower of the two in actual passing yards, but, not as many yards were required from him because Harris was picking up big chunks of yards that kept drives alive, getting first downs, and winning the time of possession battle. So in game one, while low in total, enough to meet both objectives. However, there were some blown opportunities in game one due to missing receivers deep that had their man beat that could have resulted in additional points and a larger buffer...
    in game 2 however, the answer is no... even though he threw for more yards than he did in game 1, just slightly more, we could have used more yards from him or his position as the running attack had struggled all night and for the most part ineffective. the team needed more yards from Nichols via the pass in order to keep drives alive, gain first downs, and keep the opponent's offense off the field in order to preserve the win.  if you ask why does that fall on Nichols, I'd say because he's the only person that touches the ball on each offensive play and that when the run isn't working, in his role as field general, it's up to him to create offense when and as needed.  I will say that there should be a component of reasonableness added to what should be expected from him though...
    personally, I don't feel that Nichols met the threshold of what should be considered reasonable in fulfilling his requirement of yards needed, even though we won the game. while everyone should be entitled to have those occasional 'off nights', it doesn't give you a 'pass' even when you win. though some feel that as long as you win why would it matter? I'd say that there are more components to winning a game than just the final score on the board. with as lopsided as the time of possession was, you had to be concerned not only with the possibility of losing the game, but also the health/safety and the mindset of the defensive players.
    asking those defensive player to go out there time and again will take a toll of them. fatigue can set in and cause a lapse in mental judgement that can result in blown assignments or costly penalties. and can also be demoralizing for your defense to go out there time and time again and keep them out of the end zone, come to the sidelines and a minute later be asked to go back in and do more. if this team is going to win a championship it's going to required all facets of the game. but the big for me is, the extra time out there for these guys puts them at higher, unneeded risk for injury.  nothing can kill a run like having key injuries to players down the stretch.
    moving forward, how many yards are enough in future games, again, it's game by game relative to need.  also, it depends on loss yards due to over/under throws, missed targets, etc., and how it effects the outcome of the game... I'll keep you posted...

    The deal with game management...... is that the games actually get managed, and you walk out, with the 2 points.  When that is happening, most people can certainly live with it.
