I thought Collins was rotating in at the 1. I haven't checked but I think he was coming back this week.

Collins/Ash at the 1. Ash is okay.

Neal would actually probably do decently at the 3, that's more his game.

Collins does and will play the 1, but you can’t ask him do it all game. He’s really not built for it, and it would probably wear him down and hurt his pass rush ability going forward (even tho he has been slightly disappointing). Price had 20 defensive snaps week 8 and Ash had 24...and that was with Irving and Collins rushing together inside a good bit. Bottom line...we need a big body to eat blocks for minimum 15-20 snaps a game.

Interesting. Thanks for the snap count.

Looks like we could go PS shopping.

Still trying to figure out why the GMen, and now Dallas, converted Jarron Jones to an OT. Marinelli OBVIOUSLY has his flaws, but he does seem to get the best out of guys. And Jones seems like one of those guys that needed a fire lit under his ***. Great size at 6’5”+, 310+. LONG ARMS!!!!! His game against the U last year was absolutely DOMINANT (6 TFL, 1 Sack, 7 Total Tackles).

As soon as I saw Price leave the field I that of Lewis...but like you said, they'll likely be looking for a big body who can hold the point of attack. I'm not sure if that's Lewis' game, but here's hoping, cause we know he can get after the quarterback...or, at least, we think we know...everything he has done thus far has been against lesser competition, so we will see...

Do we really need another big body? We've got Collins, who has been starting at NT, and Ash. How many NTs do we need?

Of course, we brought up Ash after we lost Paea, but I'm not sure if that wasn't because we didn't know how much we'd use Collins there.

ATL is going to run the ball right down our Ash hole, if we're not careful.

Whew
Good thing no matter what they do the running game is not important
Hopefully the Falcons don't know this
Let's let them run all they want while we just defend the pass because we all know that is what wins games :rolleyes::rolleyes:

Yes. Bring up Neal so he can be in street clothes in the sideline.

Great idea. Thanks for posting!

I think he is already wearing street clothes on the sideline.
