Lewis Sanders = Doubtful :(
 
Just saw that. Doubtful with a hamstring injury. :( Real bummer as he was starting last weekend, wasn't he? So back to Deltha O'Neal? Who comes in for nickel? Wilhite?

I think Wilhite started at Nickel for the Denver game so I imagine that he'd be back in that role this week due to the Sanders injury. From what little I saw of Wilhite, I was impressed. Not blown away, just impressed. I think he'd fill in nicely. Also, what's the over/under on Wheatley being activated because of this?

O' Neal started as well...they used 3 corners...I agree I think LSanders is OK..he went out last week with a thigh injury..so he's got all kinds of bumps an dbruises..

Well the kid is still young and hopefully he'll go from impressive to All Pro in time.:)

Hobbs is playing, or no?

Luckily for us, Torry Holt has aged very quickly. He's not nearly as good as he used to be (now that I said that he'll put up 200 yards).

I'm more worried about speedy rookie Donnie Avery sneaking behind our secondary ...

On an interesting side note, the Rams have attempted ZERO passes inside the 10.

If we had Steven Jackson, we would have attempted ZERO passes inside the 10 too. :p

Richardson looked decent out there at CB against Denver, he also made an impact on Special Teams. Hopefully Wheatley's setback is minor and he's back to work for this game.

Likely Wilhite, Richardson, or Wheatly will get looks at nickel. Plenty of options.
