I'm hoping Stanback will continue to return kickoffs and slowly play his way into the offense. If Glenn doesn't come back 100%, we're going to need a deep threat guy in the postseason. Even as a decoy, Stanback can still change a defensive formation with just his speed. Just one bomb completed to Stanback and every DC in the league will be on alert.....I guarantee it!

We need a burner, that can scare defenses when he lines up outside.

Why not Stanback?

Did he line up at WR at all today? Even during garbage time?

I couldn't make out.

I only saw Hurd out there.

I like Hurd ok, but he doesn't scare anybody when he lines up.

i saw him out there on 3rd down when we ran the ball and then punted during garbage time, but that was all...i was hoping to see a pass thrown his way, but you can't argue with just running time off the clock

He came in on a 3rd and 8(3 wr set) when they were running the clock out. JJ got four or five yards and they punted.

It was nice to see Stanback out there and he actually looks like a good return man. I can see him breaking one at some point. And I agree with Silverstar, if he catches just one bomb pass, every DC in the league will take note. The more weapons the merrier.

Heck, let's at least try him on a reverse next game. :laugh2:

Damn he looks like a gazelle when he runs.

He looked good on the kick off returns. Did he get any snaps as a WR? (I couldn't tell based on the telecast).

That's good news. Maybe he'll run a fly next week....

He is exaclty what the Dr. ordered. We needed some more dreads out there. LOL.

Speed and play making ability. Outside TO we lack a little in those areas. Line him up and let him gooooo....

Good post and yes we need him bad if Glenn does not return.

I'm excited about Stanback also, but the idea that an 8-1 team 'NEEDS' something isn't quite right in my estimation. Having a speed threat would be nice, but it isn't like we've been unable to stretch the field without Glenn and stanback in the game.

I liked what I saw with Stanback. He had a good burst when he spotted the lane.
