I think so.

So if he doesn't play then all pro C. Woods gets the start..

" game day concussion protocol "...

Or Double AA you know who that is.

Automatic autstin... each time he's on the field it's Automatic first down..

We need our guy K. Williams to be this...

This puts Zo well on pace to play. No worries unless his participation is less today.

Ok. Thank you for that insight. Was trying to interpret what it meant as the whole protocol thing can be very complex.

Only an Elite WR like Drake London could have taken that ball away from Gonzo. He was going for the Pick and London took the contested ball away and fell on Gonzo's head accidentally.

Definitely.. London is physical WR and at 6"5 can go up and get it.. gonzo made a play and had the ball in his cusp.. but as you said London fell on him.. there's only 3 truly elite CBs in the league that could have even contested that play there..
All pros
Gonzo , Surtain, Stingley Jr..

It's a 5 point process ranging from light exercise to the 5th being full participation. Then you need to be symptom free and pass independent test.

This is a game where I want to see if they are going to man up and take away Mayfields targets outside..play zone and tez and egbuka are making plays all day..

@PATSYLICIOUS

You know how I feel about zone coverages. .. if we were getting to the QB routinely with 4 then no biggie.. however we aren't.. so the zone on the back end makes is to easy for the QB..

When we had the likes of dennard, Arrington, Hobbs, Wilhite, Wheatley, could definitely understand why zone was played.. we have 2 great man coverage CBs in gonzo and Davis outside.. allow them to challenge thier match ups.

Id love to lock up gonzo on egbuka and marcus on Johnson. I wonder if baker might affect that though, hes sneaky dangerous on the run

Not sure how much we lose by having Jennings instead of Rham. He has looked ok based on casual inspection of a limited sample last couple of weeks.

So, you believe that Jennings is a top player at picking up the blitz and as a receiver?

BTW, you do realize that if Rham is active, Jennings would also be active.?

Mayfield is a pocket passer with the ability to run when he has too.. that is where someone like Mapu will likely be a spy on him..

 

[mgteich]

Honestly I’ll be happy with a moral victory this weekend. .

A moral victory would be to have no injuries during the game and for all those out injured to return for the following week.

Can we just cut him if that doesn't work?

 

[Real fan 02]

Yeah.. we have Ellis so we're all set.

 

[DoubleDeluxe]

I think so.

How can he be a full participant if he’s in protocol?
You have to be cleared to practice fully.

Some of the national talk I've seen on this game.. let them tell it.. would leave one to believe Tampa is the defending SB champion and not the eagles..

We mustn't kid ourselves.. Tampa is a solid team but however without thier 2 best players at WR.. the only way I see them putting up more than 14 points is if we turn the ball over..
