I'm pretty sure it was because of BM having a quicker release, which for that play is crucialDon't know if there was an equipment malfunction or they wanted to check Bailey after the hard hit he took on the run before, but I don't think their intent was to take him out and keep him out. Which is why HB came right back out on the field.

Honestly, I don't agree with the QB change right there. Bailey should be capable of throwing that pass. Maurer's release definitely helps, but IMO, the main reason you use him there is to bait the defense with his ability to run..I'm pretty sure it was because of BM having a quicker release, which for that play is crucial
