Could the staff possibly start Colombo over Free?!

[jchap]

Free has been great but if Colombo is cleared to play do you think the coaching staff would put him in to start? I see the staff as the type to not want to have a guy lose his job to injury. What do you think?

It's not a case of a guy losing his job to injury. It's a case of not being sure if Colombo is strong enough yet---is he himself?

I don't think you should mess with the chemistry like this during a playoff game.

Got to worry about conditioning too and being rusty on blitz recognition. Ideally I would like to see Colombo come in on a jumbo package or 2 to convert 3rd and shorts just to get a feel for the game again.

I agree!

Free was physical today. That is something i've always questioned but he was knockin skulls today.

I don't care what we do. I trust our coaches to make the right decision.

If Columbo is only 90% though i'd rather keep Free in.

yes they touched on that, about columbo, he may not be strong enough yet and wouldnt be ready till week 2 in the playoffs;

If Free isn't playing RT next week it better be because he has been moved to LT so Flo can sit one out.

I dont think Colombo will be coming back till the second round anyway, right? So it's probably another week before they really have to address this.
