I read earlier this week theyd say on thursday O'Shea does media after practice. Practice today runs from 11:20-12:40. But we might not get a final decision until tomorrow or gameday. If they are practicing with the team today then that's a pretty good indication they will play... if not, they still might play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to have a NI back up for an NI starter. So if our back up lochard started, we would need another NI back up. Weve seen geoff drover go from wr to de, oline to d line in guys like matt sheridan and chris walby, Lbers go to rb/fb win wade miller and mike sellers. On top of seeing qbs kick and punt, line men play both ways, wrs play both ways etc. Jfg has been nearly invisible on offense. 5 less catches then games played. But hes a strong teams guy with the right build who runs hard with the ball. If any one has to switch to be a back up NI rb its him. Hes a former return man, and has the physical tool set.

Not hard to understand why JFG's production is way down- he doesn't see the field very much. I don't know if he insulted the coaches' dog or what.

rebusrankin Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 Its simple, if Harris can't go, they rotate between Lochard and JFG as the 7th NI. While that may not be ideal, its a far cry from Drover in the secondary or Neil McKinley as a starting linebacker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically you have three guys who could come in if Louchard went down. JFG Richards and Normand. It would take a lot for a defensive guy to come in to offence.

Mos seems to love him. 45 minutes ago, Noeller said: WR to DB and that was a full time change....Howell, too... yep. Both looked pretty solid back there too. 13 minutes ago, Jpan85 said: Technically you have three guys who could come in if Louchard went down. JFG Richards and Normand. It would take a lot for a defensive guy to come in to offence. Richards is waaay too injury prone to put at rb. Id love to see normand get touches I think he can develop into some thing good. But then hes our only blocking fb. hes important on teams, goal line offense etc. 23 minutes ago, rebusrankin said: Its simple, if Harris can't go, they rotate between Lochard and JFG as the 7th NI.

Just makes it easier for the D to key in on dressler and the other imp. Again you need an ni back up to an ni starter even if you rotate with other positions. Because if that rotation guy goes down you dont have the depth at the other position now and have to bench a more productive imp. Its a case of risking one of mcduffie,denmark,dressler, or sheppard on a guy like lochard or jfg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
