That makes sense - kicking the can down the road for another week.
It's a legit question though. I still feel like when this team wins it is despite TH, not necessarily because of him. However, I suppose you also can't underestimate how the team seems to rally behind him. In a way it isn't good though in my opinion, because I don't like the idea that they don't play their best when someone else is under center... Like they really bring it when TH is the QB, but not so much when CW is...?
I feel like Heinicke plays his best at a sweet spot in the middle - when he's not confident at all he panics and makes poor decisions and poor throws and looks every part the backup, but when he gets too confident he starts getting risky and making throws like that terrible interception last night. Floating the ball into deep coverage is always a terrible idea. So you want him to be confident, but not "I can do anything" confident.
No doubt the squad rallies behind him though, knowing any game could be his last. I expect this ride to continue until he has another "lost all my confidence and I have 47 passing yards at the half" type performance.
