How is our new starter going to affect us?

[btcutter]

Listening to Mick today:

1. Ball starting at FS instead of Watkins. Ball (2nd leading SP tackles) may not play special teams.

2. Buehler not kicking off. Folk is doing the honors on Sunday. Hmmm.....That's two starter on Special teams not available. How will this affect us. Two new SP players covering KO and PR.

3. Free on RT. Funny that McQuestran was the back up right tackle and Free is the swing tackle but when it's time to play, Free is starting and not McQuestran. Not good for McQuestran.

Good Lord, we are a walking MASH unit.

Let me guess.

Mickey has all sorts of sunshine spewing from his mouth.

You do wonder if they try to spread us out and get Ball playing CB so someone else (like Hamlin) has to play FS.

And I wonder who else will play gunner if Ball doesn't. He's very good, so there might be some dropoff there.

Is it official that Balls gets the nod? If so good news I was losing sleep thinking it would be deer in head lights watkins...

What?!?! You mean Spags won't ever have a negative opinion?

Oh come on, Spags is a completely objective journalist...Oh wait, sorry reality set in.

Are you sure Ball is getting the nudge over Watkins? I havent heard this.

If So then that's good news. I actually like Ball, He has some skills and He's a youngster.

from dallascowboys.com:

S Ken Hamlin - ankle (11/15) Hamlin suffered a high ankle sprain against the Packers and will miss 2-4 weeks. Alan Ball will replace him at free safety, beginning Sunday against the Commanders

 

[Bob Sacamano]

I hope the Ball replacement is permanent

who is going to be the 4th corner then?

Bob, we don't agree on RW, but on this we do. I definitely hope we see the Ball that laid out the KC WR (even though he got a BS helmet to helmet penalty). Is Mickens still on the PS?

Mickens was recently snatched off the PS

or was that DeAngelo Smith

I get the 2 mixed up

we did sign a corner, rookie Jamar Love to the PS recently

 

[TheCount]

I don't understand that. They always talk about not making more problems by moving a guy out of position and leaving a hole elsewhere then they go and move Ball off special teams to FS instead of letting Mike Hamlin play. I guess the kid must not be ready.

Mickens was signed by Tampa Bay.
