Bene broke his ankle for sure.. dammit

When did the injury happen? When we clearly won and RR didn't pull the starters?

Ugh, this is a huge blow.  NO way we can keep colin jones off the field now

We still can limit him to Dime packages by getting peanut back and having Cortland at nickel.  Not all is lost.

Cary Williams plays well in a zone scheme. If available, the best years were under zone scheme in Philly and Baltimore.

Starters were benched at this point in the fourth quarter. You could have up to four corner backs on the field at one time and if you only keep six active then someone has to play. Don't stir the pot because of the lack of knowledge you have of football.

Gettleman deserves GM of the year for the signing of Cortland Finnegan.  That said, we're looking for a bottom of the roster CB who knows our offense, might as well bring Melvin White back.

Yeah, this sucks for Bene.  I'm so sad for him.  Really glad G'man was so proactive in getting Finnegan.  Can you imagine where we'd be otherwise? Yikes!

Before we signed Finnegan, I had researched former Panthers CBs on other team's Practice Squads.  There were a couple.  I'll see if I can find the list...

if Melvin White really is sitting on the Rams' practice squad I really hope we think long and hard about bringing him back.  Would already know the system, I think he would do fine in the nickel role.

The real question is why any starters were in at 38-0

I remember seeing the list, it's why I immediately thought about Melvin White.  I know Carrington Byndom is also available.  I think one of those 2 will make a return.

[Goondal]

Well crap.

[KB_fan]

OK here are CBs we cut earlier this year:

Carrington Byndom - Cardinals PS

DeAndre Presley -

Melvin White

TJ Heath

I thought it was an Achilles when I seen it

You only have 53 players, so someone has to play.  I was thinking the same thing you were, but when I thought about it, you can physically only rest so many players.  In a way, it's kind of a blessing, imagine if it was J-no who got injured and not Bene.

[KB_fan]

Byndom has the advantage that we can get intel on Cardinals...

We only had so many corners to throw out there. Someone had to play.
