What, right after the 1st qtr INT, 15 minutes after the game started? lol.

That said, we have to keep in mind that Mallett basically entered the game in garbage time, and the TD to Hop was essentially considered as garbage time points in the fantasy football realm. The Chiefs weren't in a prevent, but they were giving out cushions bigger than Mattress Mack in the 4th quarter.

Well, I think the point being, even if the coverage was somewhat loose, Mallett didn't screw it up, no? I think he moved the ball well with the only regrettable thing being the miss to Graham on 3rd and 10 (followed by the doinky Bullock FG). 11 pts. in 6 or 7 minutes really prorates nicely over 4 qtrs.....

There must be something about Mallett that doesn't fit OB's checklist of what an NFL QB should be. While Hoyer may get the start in Carolina, I bet Mallett is the one that finishes the game..... We may be 0-2 by then, though....

Early line = Carolina by 3
