It's easy, and only takes a few moments.We all know the Pats use 3 safties on the field in most of if not all nickel and dime packages, with Harrison out who do you think will be that 3rd saftey out there with Sanders and Meriweather?
I'm not sure that's true--against the Donkeys, there were 159 snaps for CBs (2.65/play) v. 140 snaps for Ss (2.33/play).
Ray Ventrone. Spann will be the 4th.
If this is true, do we start having the mentality that Ventrone is the Cassel of the defense? Obviously there are some differences (not being a starter for one), but there would be a sharp learning curve and probably some mistakes made on his part. I could predict some harsh posts to come.
I don't want to get ahead of myself, but at the same time let it be known that I am a big fan of Ray, and I want to lobby for some patience in regards to him if this is the case.
Meriweather, Spann, Ventrone, Sanders, Slater all qualify as safeties.
In a pinch you could even use Moss as a CB and move one of the corners to safety for a snap or two.
I will be very upset if I see that. They've used Moss to break up potential "jump ball" hail mary passes before, and it always freaks me out.
Yeah, we're stocked and it won't happen, but it has. Just saying.
And maybe it was deep safety. I can't say I can tell by one snap who's doing what when a WR is on defense.
I remember they used him like that in Dallas and I think in the SB. Not sure when else if ever. Scares the crap out of me.
At least he's not lining up at RB.
I wouldn't be surprised to see him as FB blocking for Evans. Our boys like the wacky.

The more we talk about this, the more I think we should just sit Moss for anything besides a hail-mary, lol.
Agreed. I made a post during the preseason saying that Brady is so valuable we should NEVER allow him to play. Same thing.
