Week 10: South Carolina (4-4) at Chesapeake (3-5)
South Carolina deliberately tanked last season to get a top draft pick, and then pulled a fascinating stunt to let its starting QB go into free agency, receive multiple FA offers (including a pretty fat one from us, which cooled our ability to pursue other players), only to storm back into the bidding to get him back anyway.
Now, they are back to respectability – and already better than us, it seems.

Oh, well. Now we have slipped to 3-6, and are clearly into the lower tier of the league.
The presence of QB Ernest Biddle in the game is troubling – we have now lost our fairly young and promising QB Harry Ross to injury for the season, and will be counting on Hilton Boner and company to answer the call at QB – Biddle is slotted as our #2 option, he’s a rookie I like for down the road, bt doesn’t have much chance to really help us now, by any reckoning.
Now, we will be focused on maintaining respectability, and perhaps slotting in a few more young players for a look in fgame situations, as we have our focus split between the finish of this disappointing season and what might lie ahead for this team.
