I know theres a lot of Dex haters on here but I like him and hope hes not out long. looked like he dislocated his elbow? insight please.

The same thing happened to his elbow as to Jon Jones' last night.

Black Bob · 09-23-2012, 05:26 PM

First I like Dex....

However, is it me or did it seem like we were better with Breaston in the slot and Baldwin outside? It also seemed like we were better with Droughn as the #2 over Hillis. Also, it seemed better with Allen at LG over Lilja...

Oddly enough, it seemed like the chemistry was better to me.

**Trivers** · 09-23-2012, 05:27 PM

I hope he is back soon.

I hyper-extended my elbow wrestling in college and I was out a month. HURT LIKE A MOTHER!

Anybody hear how long for him?

Micjones · 09-23-2012, 05:46 PM

Hope the guy comes back soon. He's beneficial to this offense.

His 2 yard reception was pretty great.......
Allen at LG was noticeably better though

I like how Droughns runs. I'd like to see more of him and Gray and less Hillis.

ya, I'd like to see a little bit of Gray. Hillis sucks balls.

Too small to play in the NFL.

It's b/c Breaston is generally a non factor, and it allowed Baldwin to get on the field. Not b/c Breaston is better than McCluster...

Same on the Oline. Hudson leaving the game just solidified the LG position, and Lilja was better at center than LG for sure, but not sure than he was better than Hudson.

I'd prefer Bowe, Baldwin, McCluster and Albert, Allen, Hudson, Asamoah, Winston.

Anyone?

I like that too. I would have different packages for Breaston/McCluster though.

One thing I would definately do is move Droughn to the #2 RB spot. He's playing better than Hillis imo.

RINGLEADER · 09-23-2012, 06:19 PM

Could the changes on the line have been part of the reason?

As I read it, you have to go to the ground intending to give yourself up.

He didn't go to the ground intending to give himself up - he hit the ground trying to catch a ball then rolled over injured.

The rule itself says you "declare yourself down by falling to the ground or kneeling and making no effort to advance". That isn't what McCluster did. McCluster hurt himself and then grabbed at the injured part.

The broadcaster was wrong, McCluster was a puss and the refs actually got it right.

Thanks again, Matty Light - your inability to accurately throw a football 15 !@#$ing feet cost us three points. Fortunately it at least got your security blanked off the field so that we can actually see Breaston out there and perhaps even throw the ball to Baldwin.

Agreed. Breaston was very good last year, but he's been practically non-existent this year.
