that this was a nudge from Reese to TC. Seems unusual to release him when he has been getting so many snaps (which I completely disagree with). If so, I hope that doesn't mean a greater number of snaps for BJ.
And while I don't think this should happen, I have to say it...more touches for Cox?
An interior lineman is most likely headed to IR and they immediately pick up an interior lineman. Signing a center means Boothe stays at G no matter what happens with Baas.
Scott? Fine, no problem. But Reynolds? Why not just promote Goodin? At least he knows the offense. Reynolds is a guy you just brought in off the street. He wasn't even on anyone's PS. Was he even in anyone's camp this year? When was the last time he played any football?
"I am surpirsed the Kicker was not cut
LG in NYC : 4:15 pm : link
2 big misses. He has no equity with the team. Could make nice statement about accountability to everyone else."
This is not exactly a big shake up. I would have at the least cut Brown. Maybe that's coming. Something needs to wake up this team.
At a bar somewhere instead of behind the keyboard. I usually type on this board as if the people I am interacting with are standing right in front of me. Wish others would do the same.
You don't think it is possible that Jerry Reese got fed up as we all have with seeing Scott take carries form his first round pick? That is that far fetched???
Scott showed something unforgiveable in a third year player. Fear. He admitted he "choked" in the first game, and I thought he played scared after that. That can happen to a rookie, not to a vet. He had to go.
but the fact remains that we just cut a young RB who was taking away reps from a 1st round draft pick of a couple of years ago. It does raise questions about the strategic direction of the running game.
Sho'nuff
Jimmy Googs : 4:22 pm :
Coaches and Reese made a clear mistake with Scott making this roster. I was fairly surprised Torain didn't get kept before Scott anyway.
I was very surprised when Scott made the roster.
BBI folks should take a bow because we are definitely getting better at roster moves!!!!!!
I would think that the team gave Scott a chance to put up or shut up. You normally don't do that in such a critical regular season game, but maybe the coaches were divided on Scott's value and this was TC's way to break the tie.
I got my wish.Too bad they waited for him to play like shit 1moretime
Difference is

Our RB's can't even help, If I see number 33 back there on third down again i'm smashing my tv. guy can't block and he doesn't follow blockers. we suck this year. just leave wilson out there. and give jacobs the ball when we need a two yard loss or if we don't want to score on the goaline on purpose, ie bradshaw in the Super bowl
taking snaps away from Wilson which was dumb because he has about half the ability of Wilson--let's see what we have in DW in this shitter of a season.
I think its asinine but what do I know.
so long butter fingers!!!
And while I don't think this should happen, I have to say it...more touches for Cox?
Because he is terrible at football.
or Connor the FB?
Because I thought Dan Conner was placed on IR
At the least, he's good on kickoffs and that matters a little.
...well, it hasnt exactly made much difference the past 2 weeks.
I think more moves are coming, soon. This does not seem like a one-off move.
This guy can't be any worse than Cordle, can he?
Wilson seemed to take over Scott's typical role..
perhaps could have been a sign

You did it; you smoked him out. No one can get anything past you.
We don't have a lot going for us right now so a little Momentum and Confidence could go a long way.

Again, Reynolds has experience at guard.
(1) Reynolds is signed.
(2) Snee goes on IR.
(3) Coughlin benches Brewer in favor of Reynolds.
(4) Coughlin plays Diehl at LG and Boothe at center.
BBI EXPLODES!!!

Let's get some different guys in here and see what they have. For now, let's go Beatty, Brewer, Boothe, Mosley & Pugh.
Backups....Reynolds, Diehl & Cordle.
