We have no clue what kind of snapping game we'd get from Wilcox if we now had to rely on him all next week. We don't know what his normal level would be. I'm sure it must be better than yesterday if he's the backup.

The fact neither the blocked XP or the FG were even remotely close to well ran plays, and the fact we then had to give Pittsburgh time for 1-2 extra plays because of nobody having any faith Wilcox would snap it well, is a capitulation you can't have.

However simplified you want to make it, all I'll say is I think the backup unit will be a bit more ready to take over in future.   

We have another specialist long snapper on the practice squad we'll call up. You can't waste a game day roster spot on a guy who does one thing. That's why Wilcox is the emergency backup. He can do three things. Play teams, play TE, and be the emergency long snapper. You guys are just trying way too hard to not blame Joe Burrow, lol.
