Omenihu Tore His ACL

[Big TT]

Next man up.

What about this Buggs fellow?

Put Tamba out there in his bloody jersey and get him a ring

Okay I feel a lot better now. Spags played a lot of the game with only 3 DL. Used Chenal as a DE quite a bit which k would assume he might do in the SB. Would like to see Willie used on the edge a few times too.

Line Chris Jones up at DE over Trent Williams on early downs. Match power to power.

Thats an excellent idea, 5/5

Or it could wear out Chris Jones and make him less effective against double teams, and make him less effective in the 4th quarter.

Power vs Power isn't a bad idea, but what if we put our fastest edge rusher on that side, and make Williams chase him on every play. Then, maybe we wear Williams out a little.

I just think that putting our OP player against their OP player would result in fewer wins than putting our OP player against a lesser lineman. I would value winning individual plays over any other strategy.

Pretty sure his reply was sarcastic.

[Gary Cooper]

Omenihu is valuable but he's at best our 4th most important defender. I wish he were playing but as others stated, that shouldn't decide the game.

[JPH83]

Bummer. He'd have been extra motivated against his old team I imagine. Ah well, 2 weeks to get the gameplan down.

[Gravedigger]

Feel bad for him, to get taken out right at the end against your former team for it all. Rough, gotta reward him just like Thuney if Thuney can’t go.

[Warrior5]

This sucks.

[pugsnotdrugs19]

I dunno, I kinda feel like Jones on Williams is wasting our advantage there which is put Jones on the weak link? He would dominate their RT all night long.

Danna can set a hard edge. And that might be all you need from that side. Just don’t let them gash you at will on the ground.

Man, this postseason has reaffirmed for me: who cares if he's ready for week 1 or week 7 or week 14. As long as we make the playoffs, I genuinely don't care too much about seed or anything that happens during the season, other than guys either staying healthy or getting healthy for the playoff run.

Yep… the timing of the injury is sucky for him as a guy trying to get paid, but if his recovery is “normal”, it probably sets him up to be hitting full stride in January… changing games for us.
