I'll be rooting against him as I do all players who play on the same team as Brady.
I would root for him as long as he isn't playing for an AFC East team, a Brady team or the Cowboys.
Was this the big contract he was weighing his options on back in July ?
Yesterday's performance reminded me of the gutless play we used to get from Trent Edwards. So many times on 3rd and 8 or 9 Trubiski was throwing passes as far as the line of scrimmage.
He'll get 3 more games before Tomlin yanks him for the rookie.
Considering Baltimore, Buffalo, Cleveland, LAC and Houston have all moved on from him as their QB, I think he'll have a hard time getting much sympathy from a judge or jury about losing out on starter money.
The only good thing I can think of about this format is that if the games were in a true doubleheader format like in previous years, I would've been on the couch watching football and its excessive commercials for 6-7 hours. This way it'll only be 3+ hours of being a sofa spud and I'll be blitzed by half the commercials.
