Taylor said the RB rotation was planned. Had nothing to do with Bernard's fumble.

I feel like they plan on cutting Gio after the season.

This was just an opportunity to look a Williams and Perine.

I know some posters feel like that isn't considered a bad thing because of his salary being too high.

By Zac doing this sends a bad message within the team and lacks class IMO.

Chalk up another failure by Taylor.  Not HC material at ANY level !

Yeah I have a couple thoughts on this benching thing.

One is perhaps Taylor thinks, or worse, knows his job is secure, and is evaluating talent for next year.

The other is he doesnt really care about winning right now, which goes against trying to build a winning culture.

I have always wondered why Perine's success at OK hasn't translated to this level. When I say to a lesser extent, it's meant that we've already seen quite a bit from him. Not so much with Williams.
