All these injuries just expose how bad the depth actually is....... There's only so much depth you can have on a 53 man roster. With only 46 being able to dress. Right now we have enough depth to beat the Lions and the Texans but falling short because of other things.

Our db depth has been an issue but Jenkins is playing better. Our LB’er depth was weak for Perryman but is looking up with Nwosu, Brown and Tranquil starting to fill in. |

Right now we have enough depth to beat the Lions and the Texans but falling short because of other things. Every club has the exact same number of roster spots, and the same number of starting spots from that roster. My comment reflected my belief that these injuries have forced the 'depth' players into playing, and their lack of talent is showing. Does having to rely on your fourth level TE make things far more challenging for Whiz? I suspect very much so. Add in the other injuries on the offence, average to below average starting OL, and the playbook seems to shrink for Whiz. Or does it?

All these injuries just expose how bad the depth actually is....... There is no way a team is going to have enough depth talent when 3 TE's get hurt (Nos.#1, 2,3) 1 RB (nos. 3), 2 WR (Nos 2 and 3), 2 Safeties (Nos 1 and 2), 2 CB (Nos. 1 and 1), and for good measure 2 LB (nos. 1 and 4) on and 1 LT ( no 1) your position is unsupported. Agreed, no club can survive long with the number of serious injuries the Bolts have received. How does that make my statement about the depth untrue?

Teams either have good depth, average depth, or bad depth. You stated we have bad depth. I disagree. I would label it good depth. There are players in our depth that would start on some teams in the NFL.

The results don't support it. The fact that the bolts have 2 wins, have played every game ( all good teams we know see) down to the wire, minus Miami while playing in some cases 3rd and 4th level players says they are doing pretty well. If the sdepth were bad IMO we would see horrendous play from level 2 and 3 players. That is just not the case as I see it.

I simply chose to use the offence in my example, clearly the entire roster has been challenged by injuries, offence, defence and ST's as well.

I would not use the word 'horrendous', but certainly we have seen poor play from these reserves.

Hopefully the team will still be in the hunt for a wild card when the starters return well rested.
