Surprised by Maroney.

Surprised by the O-Linemen and Wheatley.

Everyone else, not really.

What was the point of releasing Titus Adams to make room for Wendell? I figured Wendell was signed in order to give someone on the line like Neal the game off today.

Re: Pats Inactives: Bodden, Faulk, Maroney, Warren, Wilfork, Wheatley, Ohrnbergr, Wen
 

I'm surprised that Maroney is inactive...

Re: Pats Inactives: Bodden, Faulk, Maroney, Warren, Wilfork, Wheatley, Ohrnbergr, Wen
 

Thin at CB against a passing team. Not that it matters, although I would have liked to have them stick Wheatley in and see how he does.

Re: Pats Inactives: Bodden, Faulk, Maroney, Warren, Wilfork, Wheatley, Ohrnbergr, Wen
 

So is this a "Maroney back in the doghouse" move or a "Maroney resting and getting Fred Taylor some game time" move?

Re: Pats Inactives: Bodden, Faulk, Maroney, Warren, Wilfork, Wheatley, Ohrnbergr, Wen
 

BB probably wanted to reward Wendell by promoting him to the 53

man roster. Unfortunately, he miscalculated and lost Adams in the

process.

Re: Pats Inactives: Bodden, Faulk, Maroney, Warren, Wilfork, Wheatley, Ohrnbergr, Wen
 

I would have been more surprised if Maroney were the only RB resting, but he and Faulk have been active for pretty much every game this season, so I can sort of understand it.

Re: Pats Inactives: Bodden, Faulk, Maroney, Warren, Wilfork, Wheatley, Ohrnbergr, Wen
 

So i wheatley basically a write off at this point? Guy cant be active in a meaningless game. pretty dissappointing

Re: Pats Inactives: Bodden, Faulk, Maroney, Warren, Wilfork, Wheatley, Ohrnbergr, Wen
 

Yes, this isn't a good sign.
