McD wanted to win, If anyone is to be blamed it should be Taylor with horrid outings against the Jets and Saints. The Chargers defense would've done the same thing the Jets defense did only better . Lynn knows Taylor's weaknesses like the back of his hand. I think it's a 50/50 call but Taylor should've started, not because he was the better QB but because you just don't start a rookie QB against the best D-Line in the NFL. The bottom line is Taylor's horrid play and Lynn knowledge of Taylor's weaknesses played a big role in him being benched. I'm sure Peterman was also pushing Taylor in practice sessions. I don't blame McD for starting Peterman but it was not fair to Peterman to start him vs the Chargers under those circumstances.
