OT: Jonas Gray waived by Dolphins


With Lewis out...hmmm.

Don't think BB cares much about his attitude so probably not....

 

[Galeb]

Dikembe's gonna be psyched.

 

[dales804]

He doesn't really add anything. Blount is having a good year running the ball.

Yeah, because no one ever gets injured and who needs depth........

Either Jonas or Cadet. At least they both have knowledge of this offense.

 

[PatriotsPimp136]

I prefer archer. Maybe BB's satisfied with james white and bolden

They don't need Gray right now, IMO. Of course people get injured. Never said otherwise. But Gray doesn't do much of anything to help replace what was lost with Lewis.

No thanks. Not unless you want Brady to go on IR because the blitz wasn't picked up.

Lol it's worth kicking the tires. Our line will get healthy soon.

I don't think Gray makes it as long as he did if his attitude was a problem.

I hear ya, but aren't you putting alot of faith in Blount's ability to carry the rock 20 times per game and stay completely healthy?

Mainly you're right.

But without Lewis, the importance of Blount's backup increases in two ways. First, Blount will probably be taking a few more snaps than he otherwise might have. Second, to some extent Lewis was his backup.

 

[Froob]

He doesn't really add anything. Blount is having a good year running the ball.

Ironically that's the same argument that was used against bringing back Blount. I'd take him back because he's a better runner than Bolden but guess BB didn't think Gray was that good so doubt it happens.

DIKEMBE ON HIGH ALERT

 

[Zuma]

The 2nd coming of Dion is not going to walk through that door. If we're concerned about RB depth overall...then Gray is not a terrible choice.

I am more thinking White will step in and take snaps that Lewis did and Bolden will take some carries, too. I don't envision Blount's carries per game going up because Lewis is out. Basically, Lewis' snaps are split between White and Bolden while Blount maintains what he has all season. Maybe he starts getting more carries as the season wears on, as he had 29, by far his most, against WAS. I don't know. Let's just hope Blount stays healthy!

People makes it sound like Patriots suddenly gonna transform into Bills and runs it 90% of the time. Look at the schedule, you aint running vs: Jets, Bills, Broncos, Texans, Eagles and mayby Miami in week 17. I think Blount can handle the load.

 

[Tunescribe]

No thanks. Not unless you want Brady to go on IR because the blitz wasn't picked up.

Nabwong, what is that man in your sig doing? Hmm?

 

[PatsFan2]

But..but he had 200yds Rushing for us in one game and made the cover of SI.

 

[PatsWickedPissah]

I think Bolden is a better backup to Blount than Gray, more versatile.
