per Brent Hubbs. I am not surprised. The primary job of the FB in this offense is to block, and Ben did a good job Sat. Fugate has looked poor at blocking, but he may be a better offensive threat.

Been disappointed with Fugate so far. I wasn't surprised by the changeup, either.

Bartholomew actually started this past Saturday from what I heard on the postgame show. I think maybe Fugate let things go to his head a little and just needed to be humbled. We are going to need him. We've always needed two FBs.

Bartholomew started and played ~95% of the snaps.  I didn't see Fugate in the game on offense till the 2nd half.
Bartholomew had at least two pancakes Saturday (I hope to watch the DVR replay tonight).

Those who Dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds
Wake in the day to find that it was vanity; but the
Dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they
May act their dream with open eyes, to make it Possible.
This I did.
