With DE Green, WR Tate and RB Taylor out....who will the 5 be that are inactive??
I do not think this is as easy with a TON of players injured, from Doubtful to Probable....
My guess is that T Light will not play and they will give him another week to rest.....Also..I think Koppen plays, starts and will be OK...(basically giving the backup role to Connolly; I really think if it was a serious injury, Simmons would be back, so they have more inside line help..meaning Ohrenberger isn't ready) OL Ohrenberger will be inactive (5th)......
From here, it's kind of hard to determine as there are so many questionable..and WHO really knows the extent of the injury.....
It's really kind of a shell game..and a puzzle...I do think Koppen will start at C...and both Baker and Watson will play..(I do believe that if either was NOT OK..they would move Meyers up to the roster..) With Tate out...I think that really means that Edleman will be ready and play..with the only assumption being if he isn't, they could make a move to IR Tate and bring Nunn or Stanback in from the Practice Squad.
So the last 3....I think they will rest Morris and give him another week..although in a surprise move, he could be active, giving them a real inside threat on the ground. And the other two...S Arrington and Lockett... I think if Tate is out, the return job will go to Wheatley...so that will mean Lockett will be the odd one out..(But again, that could change if Sanders's groin is bad..making him inactive.)
Banta-Cain, Brace, Meriwether...all will be active, although Brace could be teh inactive one of the 3...meaning a DB or Morris could be active.
A lot of ifs here..depending on injuries....
**Green, Taylor, Tate, Light, Ohrenberger, Morris, Arrington, Lockett** (with options if others of the questionable are injured a bit worse...)
