If Wilson can't start Meriweather is as good as anybody. He was a fine safety at a major school.

No ones ready to start, but since Rodney screwed up, somebody will have to if geno can't.

Belichick moves guys around so much starting can be irrelevant anyway.

I would go with him as a starter(hence if wilson is out I declare BM ready to start) before Gay. Is any rookie truly ready to start?

Based on the limited sample I saw of him at free safety I was impressed.

I like his instincts before Gay who is a corner and let's remember that Gay has been out two years.

I'm excited about the rookie.

It is a good thing that we start against the jets. Hopefully, Wilson and Samuel will be fully ready for the chargers.

I think the Jets have better wr's than the Chargers. This time around we have AD to cover Gates, people seem to forget that and he'll help with Dallas Clark when the Colts come.

Cotchery and Coles are pretty good. Remember last year the missed tackles by Wilson etc?

Isn't San Diego missing Eric Parker from toe surgery?

The Jets are not a team to underestimate.
