IMO, if they wanted to start him in the first half of the season, the best game for it would have been the November 3rd game (Titans). It would have been game 9 (a/k/a the new mid-season), and it would have been against the Titans.
But that's just from a guy who doesn't know the specifics of that actual plan (me), and might have been being extra cautious. You're spot on about not starting him this week, though, IMO.
Breaking news: I've decided that yesterday was in fact a W for New England because we can now confirm we have a franchise QB. I have also decided that the first 5 games of the season do not matter, and I've overturned the results of those games.

Brown did pretty damn well considering he had like 3 days to acclimate. With Strange coming back they seem to be okay on the interior OL. They need to get some continuity at OT though, especially LT, they've played like 6 guys there this season so far.
thought the article said he had marijuana in his possession, which isnt illegal in MA but its against NFL policy (although maybe thats just failing a drug test?)
Barmore cries racism because he didn't get special treatment.. Here's a hint, don't be a dick to the cops and your chances of getting let go dramatically increase.

After watching some film breakdowns of the game.. I'm excited to see more of this offense with Maye. I think it's the right move now to have him play. They are going to stink, that's fine. Let's find out who (of the young guys) can play and are worth keeping around. Especially at WR, OL and some of the younger defenders.
Looking at this Jags game, this team is very beatable. They are so ready to quit on the coach, if they haven't already. This is a road trip to get a W, and build some team confidence by drubbing the Jags and getting Pederson fired. Don't give up explosive plays to them, take care of the ball and this is an easy win.
