Had Nathan first this week and isn’t looking for a reason to move him.

Tyler Shough was the zero everyone was pointing at on Monday morning, and then he played. He finished at 15.94. Fuss finished at 149.94. Lucas stayed at 90.58. The margin is 59 points, and Lucas is 0–4. Fuss is 3–1, with the high score of the week and 539 points on the year, which is the neighborhood Nathan lives in.
The backs were the week, the way they have been. Javonte Williams had 26.3, Emanuel Wilson had 24, Cook had 14.3, and Warren had 12.6. Brian Robinson had 24.7 on the bench and Stevenson had 15.4, so the room is not a secret. Darnold had 13.3 sitting there, which was still the right seat. Shough was fine. Fine is not the same as solved, and one Monday in the Superdome does not make him the January quarterback. It does mean the hole did not cost anybody a win.
