Everything about him is off. He might not be making 100% the right decisions out there, but he is clearly too limited to run the offence properly at this point. People must be joking if they don't think the injury is limiting him. He hasn't gone from one of the best QB's in the league, to a guy with 2 TDs in 4 games, in one offseason.
Whether sitting him magically returns him to 100% health or not, he isn't exactly doing much to get us W's out there. So may as well sit him, let him rest up and see if Browning gives us anything different.
Better that, than send the franchise QB out there with a clearly limiting calf strain and have him getting sacked late in the 4th quarter when down 27-3.
