Thursday night recap:
Well, Brian Hoyer broke his arm, and Aaron Rodgers looked good again. Matt Barkley posted a 6/15 line with 81 passing yards and 2 interceptions, good for a 13.7 QBR.

I watched the NLCS game instead of this. Does anyone actually enjoy these Thursday Night games? It seems like they’re always terrible matchups on paper, the players are on record as saying that they don’t like the short week and the on-field product usually suffers.
