Since that's the only thing we can do right now we should...
1. Promote Damian McIntosh and Vernon Carey into the strating lineup. McIntosh is ready to assume starting LT repsponsibilities and the Wade Smith experiment is over. Man the kid looked like a deer caght in the headlights. No matter. MCintosh at LT will be a MAJOR upgrade. Carey over St. Clair will add some agressiveness on the right side. It's about time and the OLine really can't get much worse than it's playing now.
2. Sign A DT quick. It looks like Larry Chester will be gone for the year. At the very least he'll be gone for a couple of weeks. I liked what I saw from Robinson and Ahanatu. We'll just need another gap stopper. Is Norman Hand or Jermain Haley available?
3. Go with Henry this week at RB. I know Gordon is still learning the offense, but that's exactly why he shouldn't be in there right now. Man was he tentaive or what? Understandablly, he's running behind the timid oline, but that's no excuse. I saw several bad cuts that he made and he just didn't seem to be running hard. I'd give Leonard Henry a chance. Also it looks like Sammy Morris should be back. That will help.
5. Stick with Feely. Even though Feely played poorly, he is still much better than Fiedler. You saw that at the end of the game yesterday. Feely is just very young and he needs to learn when to force it and when not to force it. The timing stil isn't there and that wil come. He's like Matt Hasselback a couple of years ago. Hasselback made countless mistakes before he finally learned. We might as well start the learning process right now.
6. MUST WIN situation. Whereas last night's game was crucial, this upcoming game is even more important. Hopefully Surtain, Konrad, Bowens and Howard will be back. You know if you just look at the injury list - with any one of those guys back, particularly Surtain or Howard, we win this game. Regardless, we'll be playing a rookie in his first game ever started. Defense needs to come up with another great game and hopefully McIntosh and Carey will be an upgrade on the OLine. If not, we're in trouble.
&. One last thing - we need more fire from everyone like the fire we saw from Randy McMichael. That's all I've got. Let me try and get over the sickening feeling I've got in my stomache now. :fire:
