I'm going to be so pissed if BB sits Ridley again...he's our most explosive RB option...and especially if he sits in favor of old man Faulk. I understand the sentiment, experience and leadership that Faulk provides...but he provides nothing as far as production on the field. I can't help but think if we didn't have Faulk on the roster, maybe we could be carrying an extra tight end, safety, or another position where our depth is lacking.
For one lost fumble in a blowout game...if BB is going to maintain the same standards and accountability for all players across the board then....sit Brady for his two nearly costly picks in the AFC championship or Edelman for his fumble lost on the punt return...or McCourty and other DB's blown coverage for TD's. Yes not advocating any of those people to be declared inactive and think it was unfair to hold Ridley out last week. Play Ridley in the Super Bowl! He will make a difference.

He has fumbled in his last 2 games, back to back--FWIW.
That's a bad time of yr to begin to get the dropsies/fumblitis.
I can respect both choices, and I think we may see him. It all depends on what BB thinks--obviously, but I would respect either choice, considering that you don't want a potential fumble in the SB + our RBBC core has been effective enough with BJGE and Woodhead.

Per news today, Vollmer and Ridley should be active and on the field. With that, right now I'm looking at 4 inactives and the rest of the slots remaining as questions:
Mallet
Vereen
Guyton
Thomas

Where'd you hear that on the latter? Not disagreeing with you, just curious.
He was interviewed (98.5, I think), and I missed a part of it. When I got back, one of the hosts was just mentioning that Ridley was going to be active and on the field.

Thanks.
I hope we see him out there. He's largely impressed (fumbles notwithstanding) and could definitely add another dimension to our offensive gameplan.
