If that's the case, I wonder when we'll see him...
Most of our opponents this year are either run heavy or at least very run capable on top of being a good passing team (Indy, SD, Pit).
The Cardinals are the only team whose running game doesn't seem that good, and a case could be made either way for the Jets.
Perhaps Crable is active against the Jets this week vs. Da Gunslinger? I know Jones had a nice rushing day in Week 1(which helped my fantasy team out), but the Pats run D > Dolphins run D.

Actually no...Guyton plays special teams a lot better than Crable..and THAT was the real reason opening day. Last week, without Alexander, Guyton was the 3rd ILB...more the reason he was active than Crable. I am sure with a long season Crable will get some time playing.Crable is very good on special teams as well. The reason Guyton was active is because he plays ILB, whereas Crable plays OLB
Both played Special Teams well in college, so I doubt that was the primary factor. The thing that has Guyton active while Shawn is inactive is position on the depth chart: Guyton is the #3 ILB while Crable is the #4 OLB. It's pretty much a no brainer for BB when putting together his inactive list, Crable needs more time to develop as an OLB and with his position on the depth chart is more likely to find himself one of the 8 men out.Crable is a beast on ST. Guess you never watched him in College
I've watched a lot of guys in college who were beasts on offense, defense and special teams who never make it to the NFL.Crable is a beast on ST. Guess you never watched him in College
