re: Does Chubb Deserve the Start?

I am with Crow 100% on this. Hata, I think the idea of Chubb starting is nice and all and the kid deserves a standing ovation when he gets in. But his shot is coming. Next year he can battle Michel to be THE guy for the backfield. Right now Gurley is out guy and there is no shame in that. I don't wanna give Chubb a ceremonial start because I think 1) it isn't neccessarry and 2) idk, maybe it'll put the fire in Chubb's belly (not that he needs more) to keep on keeping on and make the most of his back up carries. The kid now should have the confidence and know that he is capable and he will be great after those 2 games.

And Gurley did make a mistake and put the team in jeopardy with his actions. I think he did and part of his legacy will be tarnished by some if not all. That happened. But idk why we'd punish him further than he already has been by the suspension. I know that isn't what your goal is with this thought but in a way it kind of is a punishment. Let the kid get back in and do what he does best. And then let Chubb get carries against an already devastated defense.
