Couldn't you apply the same "logic" to every other starter and bench them all in the interest of finding good back-ups?

That may be a part of it.
I think the bigger part is they want him 100% healthy, and familiar with his role as OLB in Gun's scheme....in order to PREVENT a recurrence of injury and to simply protect him for the regular season--especially that first month.

I've heard several people (Rhonda Moss, Mitch Holthus, etc.) say that Bell uses his body like a human missile, without regard for his own safety sometimes.

Well I would say probably because a lot of those starters don't have the same health-concerns by the coaching staff as Bell does. So kiss the fatest part of me ass! |

I don't know what to think of Bell yet. Does anyone really think they hold him back so he doesn't end up killing our guys on offense? Or does he have some injury? Seeing him play well next game will ease my mind alot.

Why take the risk of injury to our best defensive player? It's not like we have many decent defensive players to spare.

If Bell is healthy, he is going to make every aspect of this D better, from the front 4, to the LB corps, to the secondary.

There is no strategy.....His shoulder is bad and they're either afraid he is still hurt, or saving him for the season, because they don't think the shoulder will hold up.
Hopefully, the med staff has bulked up the supply of cortizone and syringes. |
