Did Bear sit the first half?

[CochiseCowbell]

I know this is a dumb question but I'd been slowly drinking from the end of the dove shoot until kickoff (5 hours).

 

[BigMotherTucker]

No

 

[mcdawg22]

He wasn't targeted one time until midway through the third.

 

[CochiseCowbell]

So, the rumor of him sitting for the summer thing was just that?

 

[kired]

Most of the offense sat the first half...

I honestly wonder if bear was sick. He looked exhausted everytime the camera was on him.

 

[missouridawg]

I don't think there was ever a rumor that he was going to sit....

I I believe it was simply speculations from our fans thinking Dan would do that since he had consistently done it in the past.

 

[Drewbowski]

I'm pretty sure he didn't play until the middle of the 2nd quarter.

 

[MarkDallas]

He was on the field on our first offensive play.

His body language all night made me think something was wrong. Even on his long reception, he got up looking like he just lost the super bowl.

 

[treeddeep]

Yeah I really wonder what his deal is. I'm sure he's ready to go to the league, but he looked miserable last night

Am I missing something?

He was the test subject in a new form of punishment. He got to play, but no passes thrown his way till he served his 1st half in game suspension**

 

[hatfieldms]

No that was real. He sat for the summer

And was ready to go at fall camp

A lot of issues with DW can be attributed to us not getting a lot of opportunities in the first half and Southern coming out in a cover four which takes away your outside receivers the vast majority of the time. Something did seem off with him though. Hope everything is good and he has a great year.

I saw him on the hail mary at the end of the first half. Might have been the only time he was targeted.

From all reports, Bear was one of the hardest workers in camp. Either something was wrong or his participation - or lack thereof - was planned.

You guys are reading too much into nothing.

Bear played the whole game and played hard the whole time. He said after the game he was double covered most of the night which was ok because it opened things up for other guys.

He was blocking his *** off every chance he got.

Also, his official game stats are incorrect. He actually caught 2 passes for 57 yards. His first 15-yard catch was credited to Kivon Coman (number 11, instead of #1).

Vicious blocker he is indeed, I saw him several times make aggressive blocks, he played ok and he will be great in coming weeks.
