DJ is or was a Probowl LT, Hes been practicing and conditioning for awhile now. Buffalo has edge guys that DJ matches up much better with.
We dont need him to be a probowl LT, just better than a Guard playing out of position.
This just makes to much sense. 5 of 5 lineman return to their natural positions, giving us the best line weve had all year. Gives Buffalo a little surprise that they havent prepared for.
I think Andy wanted DJ to play last week but the opponents strength at edge dictated otherwise. We have an above average LT, healthy and ready to go.
Yes we are asking a lot from him but now that Houston has been eliminated, its time to start him.
Call me crazy!

Humphries is a one time pro bowler. It's not like he was some perennial pro bowler.
