Week 9 - Our chance to come back is lost at home vs. the 49ers when we lose 21-24, but the 8-1 49ers handled us. Baker catches 2 TD passes, Wagner the other. Clements tossed a pick that was returned for a score and we allowed a PR TD. Either stopped and we win. Shepherd was held to 48 yards on 14 carries. Baker had 127 yards in addition to his 2 scores. Harris and Morabito each had picks. Torres had a double sack day.
RB Shepherd is questionable and I bench him.
Week 10 - We lose at home again, this time to the 7-2 Jets to go to 5-5. We cannot lose games at home, and have dropped 4 of our last five games. Clements hit Gardener and Bakerx2. One Baker TD was a 78 yard play. Baker finished with 116 yards. Harris had a pick.
Week 11 - BYE
RB Shepherd is back. S Westbrook is back.
Week 12 - We travel to Buffalo and defeat the Bills 21-16. Shepherd is Game MVP with 115 yard on 20 carries, Clements hit Ornelas twice and Schwartz for another score. S Carlson got a pick. Torres grabbed a trio of sacks. Wright had 4 KRB. LB Glenn will be back next week.
Week 13 - We defeat the Patriots at our place 20-13. Shepherd is Game MVP with a 21 yard scamper for a score, 223 yards on the day on 28 carries. Baker had 141 yards on 8 catches. Wagner caught a Clements toss. Kadanoff had another 2 sacks. Wells had 6 KRB while Severson added 4. Shepherd was NFL Offensive Player of the Week.
LB Chris Glenn is out for the season with Broken Ribs. It drops his skills some. I toss him on IR and sign LB Bubba Doughty for the rest of the season. Conrad O’Neal is moving to the middle, and Doughty will be on the WLB side.
