Hi Nors. I wish he'd activate Crayton already! We know he won't deactivate Carson. Do you think Cooper is going to be playing tonight?? Will he bring all the DLine in I wonder....

I'm real interested to see if Thorton (Bruce) will finally be activated. Each week he isn't bolsters your argument about the draft this year.

It's gameday, and I'm in a great mood!!!!! :D

Crayton is active that means 1 of the corners or Dedric is out. I can't see him going with a rookie on monday night in the rain on the road to handle the punts. As LTN said - he's real good at fair catches. I can see a DE deactivated?

I want to see more Kalen Thornton in there over Al S as the season goes on. He's a player.

Thornton in the 4th was a horrific pick. Real, Real bad. Two 7th rounders outplaying him. Guess props on the 7th picks? :rolleyes:

Can someone with access to KFFL or the pay places post inactives? I'm real interested. could be a suprise tonight.

Whoa there...The Jury is still out on him. If by Week 12 or so he is still NO factor, then I'll probably begin to agree w/ you.

I think both Reeves and Jones will be active, and I can't believe he wouldn't play Ward. Thornton may sit yet again.

OK, serious question because I could have missed it. Thornton has received more PT than I expected, but most of the time it seems to be as a down lineman rushing the passer in certain situations. Has he played much as a standing LB? I hadn't noticed much.

Parcells has primarily lined him up at the line just as you describe. Nors has already gone on the record and said that "Singleton has got to go." It's a classic case of "weight discrimination" since Al is 228 lbs (even though he's 6-4)

I have a theory why Nors doesn't like him... ;)

would you let the kid play before calling him a horrible horrible pick?

and Kalen Thornton is not going to start at OLB...he's basically a one dimensional guy right now...

Hmm, how can a hybrid be one dimensional? :D

The guy is handling two positions, mutiple formations and he's one dimensional? As a rookie - his role is in the nickel and dime DE/LB slot. Look for that role to expand if he continues to make plays.

In two games he's lined up only as a pass rusher

Exactly. Not a hybrid yet, but he is in the hybrid training program.

Ah, the weakness of the "hybrid". Just like in real life it's very difficult to find someone that can do two jobs, not just equally well, but superior enough to be used at both positions.

It doesn't happen often. My good buddy Nors believes you can create "hybrids", virtually at will.

It doesn't work like that.

Like father, like son: Undrafted rookie linebacker Kalen Thornton has made the final roster, coach Bill Parcells said. Thornton had two sacks Monday vs. Tennessee and has impressed Parcells with his conversion to linebacker.

Line up down as a DE. Diversity!
