News: Fox: No shortage of backup plans in wake of Rolando McClain's suspension

[gimmesix]

Was rewatching the New Orleans game from last year and how well our linebacker corps played overall. Hard to believe none of the linebackers who started that game (Durant, McClain, Carter) will be in the lineup to start this season.

How this corps shakes out will be interesting to see, especially with Rolando sidelined by his own stupidity.

I think its going to be Hitchens. Brinkley is more of a SAM IMO

Are you serious here??? Brinkley has always played ILB. Will be a 2 down MIKE until Ro returns.

I bet they knew this was coming months ago.

They are well aware Romac is an unreliable pothead

Brinkley was a solid middle LB for the Vikes and will be a good ML for the Cowboys, he will just come out on certain downs.

We have several options, without Rolando this year. We couldn't make that claim in 2014. Let's call it progress.
