Also, I see a lot of criticism for Cam Ward sitting out the second half.

That was probably planned beforehand, and he could've done what a lot of guys do and... not play at all.

He actually played and out on a show in a game he didn't need to play in. Then gave the keys to the backup. Meh.

My only argument (as a bettor) is if we didn't know before the game. . . I didn't know, but maybe it was announced.

I believe the Patriots trade down for multiple picks. No WR has been drafted #1 since Keyshawn Johnson in the late 90's, I've never seen a DB drafted #1 in my lifetime.

Patriots probably swap with every what team drafts 2nd and gets another future 1st round pick.jmo..

Definitely think Hunter doesn’t go 1st overall. Will be interesting to see if a team that lands 1st and doesn’t want a QB keeps the pick or trades down.

Disagree. Dude was record hunting. Put himself above the team. It’s a bad look especially for the QB who must be a leader. Play or don’t.

I mean…31 points, 190 yards & 3 TDs in the first half in a game where 2 of the top 5 WRs didn’t dress at all is pretty good play. Especially when one play could have lead to a draft killing injury.

Right. So don’t play. He had nothing to prove. Play or don’t. Make a business decision or don’t. Quitting at halftime in a close game is garbage. It looks stupid.
