and who can we least afford to lose?
T.O. Glenn, Flozell, Drew, JJ, Witten?
If we lose any of them we are in trouble.
Having T.O. in there will more than likely help JJ.
Having Glenn in there won't allow T.O. to get double-teamed as much.
Having Flozell in there helps ALOT in protection. He's our best O-lineman.
Same deal with Witten as it is for Glenn...he's a receiving threat.
Having JJ back there makes opposing defenses respect the run thereby making a double-team in the secondary difficult. Teams remember what he can do when he is in there.
Having Bledsoe in there.....do we REALLY want to go into a game with a backup QB? Especially one that is inexperienced in real NFL games? This one is debateable depending on whether you believe that a mobile QB gives us a better chance, which it does.
Which brings me to another point....Man, DB is in his 30's....how the heck can the guy be as immobile as he is? I think he should get with a track & field specialist and work on getting SOME speed into his legs.
