Its not a total fabrication to say that Parcells wanted to give Stewart more snaps and Glover less. He said as much in the mini-camps last year. And I don't think they were talking about giving Stewart more snaps in the nickel, either. Ideally, Parcells probably would have prefered a 65/35 total snap ratio between Glover and Stewart, with Glover in on all nickel packages. With nickel packages taking up 50% of the snaps, that would have only left Glover with 15% of snaps in the base. Which is exactly what we should see this year. Glover getting spot duty in the base, and extensive duty in nickel .. which gives him 65%-70% of the total snaps. Which is how he would be best utilized.

So why is it such a huge concern that he's not playing as many snaps this year and not last year? At least he's sharing time with a real football player this time.

Despite labeling myself a "realist", no one understands my pain or appreciates my special truth. Stupid world.
