Agreed; I am thinking like SwedishPat kinda said that he has been troubled by injury all year. He hasn't seemed to dominate ANYBODY (not like he did previously) whenever he was in (as either "healthy" start or "questionable" start)-. And his inconsistency is probably worse to have than a consistent lower (possible maximum) performance from a Thomas or Mcdonald.

Disagree a little with you here-
G is still a critical position to get right; LT/RT are also important; but you can always help them out with a TE if reqd. If the Gs stink; TB gets pass rush right in his face (a la Giants) immediately. Ack your point about injuries resulting from blind-side; but for passing-game effectiveness; minimum-effecitve G play (IMO) is more important.

The Run blocking on the left side wasn't consistent at all. The whole line wasn't.

However, I'd feel safer with him the and this isn't good news. We'll survive without if we have to though...we have DS!
