That’s awful, I really hope they bring him back next year. Seemed to me he was well on his way to earning an extension. Either way he’ll land on his feet, he put a lot of good tape out there this year.

Might it be time to cut JJ loose? With all the trouble stopping the run, can the team afford to keep him? That roster spot could go towards adding fehoko to the roster to help boost the run defense a bit. He’s made almost no contribution thru 5 games. He’s always hurt! Weren’t you the guys who said Forrest Merrill was the answer?

Would it be worthwhile to bring lamp back? I think lamp parked between linsey and slater is better than lamp parked between feeney and tevi, thoughts? If indeed abushi has an ACL he’ll be going on IR and we’ll need more than jaimes and hunter (PS) as the defacto G back ups. I’ve only rewatched half the game but schofield had a really nice game up to that point replacing abushi at RG there was no noticeable drop off in play. I mentioned lamp a bit ago and people bit my head off.

Weren’t you the guys who said Forrest Merrill was the answer? Coach was trying some crazy stuff but nothing seemed to work all that well. There was a play we had 6 guys on the LOS and tall playing the run and they still moved the ball. It was bosa, tillery, joseph, covington, gaziano, and nwosu merrill only got 15 snaps, gaziano only got 14, that means joseph, covington, and tillery were on the field way way too much. I’ve thought all along that carrying only 5 d-linemen is just not enough and you have to rotate them more.

I never said anyone was an answer, I remember saying he’s better than people think. But you can take the best run stuffing DT in the world and if you only give him 15 snaps he’s just not going to have the opportunity to get that much done. They need to rotate these guys better…

Joseph himself struggled against these guys, they are literally the best running team in the NFL this year for a reason. Sheesh, give the kid a break…

However, you want to cut JJ and bring on Fehoko now that bringing up Merrill didn’t do the trick.

How come they don’t release the protected list every week? I’m still trying to figure out how the raiders nabbed brandon facyson when he was getting protected every week. As for christiansen, I thought he outperformed nieman and abongbemiga in the preseason so with K9 out and tranquill getting hurt, christiansen might be a guy that gets elevated for this next game.

As for christiansen, I thought he outperformed nieman and abongbemiga in the preseason so with K9 out and tranquill getting hurt, christiansen might be a guy that gets elevated for this next game. Here’s your answer: The NFL also added a new wrinkle to the practice squad that provides teams with some limited protections for keeping practice squad players. Teams can designate four players every week that are protected from being signed by other teams. This protection starts on Tuesday each week, so every practice squad player is still available to be signed to the regular roster of another team after their team’s game that week until the deadline on Tuesday.www.hogshaven.com/2021/8/31/22648441/how-it-works-nfl-practice-squad-rules-eligibility-salary-and-more
