Sit Joe Burrow down

[2MinutesHate]

Everyone was screaming and hollering about our backup QB situation during the preseason when we actually had to watch them play.
Joe comes back and everyone kinda forgets about it.  Until now.

It's pretty obvious we aren't winning anything with Browning.  The run game isn't polished enough to lean on because ZT won't balance the offense to involve Mixon more, which would've helped Burrow's calf in the process.  Probably too late to start trying that now.  Management didn't address backup QB and won't because they've got Browning for a cool $750K.  

So now what?  I say if Joe can play this week, play him.  If the calf gets worse and we lose, he will have until next summer to let it heal as we'll be out of the playoff hunt anyway.  Then Browning can finish out the season and we can focus on the draft. 

I know what I would've done if I was management.  I would've called Wentz, Ryan, Foles or another GM looking for a possible trade by now.  Of course, I'm not the one sitting on $13 million in cap space.  Perhaps if I had that kind of money, my thinking would be vastly different.
