On my way to the game I heard Fales was to play to be evaluated. Wasn't sure this was correct until I saw him come in.Its like politics, people aren't going to agree on whats best. I'm sure a faction of Bengal fans are happy to see the team play hard and crush the Ravans fans, and another faction is upset about the draft pick. What makes no sense to me though is the plan to play Cutler for a few series. That seems like a slap in the face of everybody.
So should fans be told this ahead of time and would it affect their decision to go? In my case no, being from out of town I was going regardless. Hated the loss but Fales did as well as Cutler in my opinion.
