Mercer looks like crap on O the next series and Punts (without issue...this time)..but Army, of course, has good field position and methodically drives for another TD

35 - 3 Army 5:13 to play in 3rd

I’m no Coach these days...but if I were...I would use this opportunity, if I were Mercer’s Coach, to get a look at some of my other QB’s and just run my regular O, as if the score was 0-0.

NOW...the Mercer staff has concurred with FUBeAR...put in true FR, Carter Peavy... & 1st pass is complete for a 1st down

Mercer driving against Army’s 4th unit - they are so deep with 167 players on ‘scholarship’, their 1’s - 3’s play regularly.

...but...not sure why...they attempt a FG...and miss.

Army, going to their back-ups on O as well...just put 8th Team QB in...who took a sack.

42-3 end of 3rd quarter

Bears hold...Mercer will start 4th Q at their own 35 & hope to mount an EPIC COMEBACK

Announcers are really going out of their way to give Mercer & Coach Cronic a lot of “love” - nice to hear, actually.

Mercer playing many backups on O now also..and stalls...punts (without incident) and with penalty (block in back - NOW they can see them) pins Army deep.

Army’s backup O is milking the clock against Mercer’s backup D...barring a turnover Or a breakaway...42-3 looks like the final...I suppose Army could put up another score...but game is pretty much over.

No Riddle what the Bears need on O...D will be fine. Have to FIX Punting game or DON’T PUNT!

No inside knowledge of this, but Mercer's insistence on playing Frost may give some insight into how they view the readiness of those QBs behind him.
