Week 5: We're on to Indy

[long distance]

Possibly but then why release him? Maybe they prefer Webb? Puzzling.

Most likely to be available from the street of the 53..

 

[WaterfallJumper]

nice pre-watch from the other side..

Very good breakdown with excellent discussion. Well worth the watch.

 

[JMC00]

Must not be expecting to run the ball tonight.

Michael and White ran the ball 33 times last week. Barner didn't get in until the last drive. Barner wasn't a change of pace/rotation last week. So McDaniels will use the running game as he normally would.

With that said, this is the typical game the Pats screw up.

This is not supported by reality.

The Patriots play a lot of games where they are heavy favorites (more than a TD.). Since their are so many chances, there will always be some games during the year where they lose or disappoint while winning. People tend to remember those games and dismiss their blowout victories, since “they should have done that.”

Here's to things getting back to normal..

Squirrel!

another reason for releasing Barner (vs f.e. Grissom) is that his salary is not guaranteed and (in this case - player under contract coming back) increases cap space..

 

[Mack Herron]

Most likely to be available from the street of the 53..

If they sign another RB they will have to release another player anyway.

10 days is a long time in NFL season..

 

[Mack Herron]

The least complicated/impactful move they could make on a short week to make room for Jules? Sort the rest out over the weekend?

Could be something like that. Will know more when we see what if any moves they make next week. New injuries every week.

looks like large CB squad will be active again.. A.Butler bounces back quickly

With Hollister probably active these are the six inactives from last week:

Rowe (i), Croston, Karras, Rivers, Davis, Grissom

If report of Jules taking punts is true Cyrus might join them

 

[Patjew]

I really don’t want to see Edelstein back there catching punts. Too risky plus Cyrus has been looking OK.

I like that inactive list.

yep

[TBR]

I don't like the injury risk of Edelman returning punts.

Your most likely correct, but it is still a gamble to have only 2 RBS on the roster.
