Looks like Brian Burns will definitely get the start now.

What is up with Irvin’s hamstring?

Irvin already missing games

What the hell is wrong with Irvin? Is his vagina sore? 

I get why Little is out after being rag-dolled all preseason long by opposing DLinemen

Or is he an unnecessary hurdle to getting Burns on the field?

With Irvin out, I am excited to see what the young guns (Burns & Haynes) going to bring to the table on Sunday.

Hamstring are notoriously tricky.  It does suck we have another game Thursday b/c Irvin could be out for that game as well and we definitely need depth having 2 games in 5 days.

Little is concerning b/c of how long it is taking him to recover from this concussion.  Again, I think more of a concern if he can't go Thursday b/c of needed depth (and injury risk) by having 2 back-to-back games

Me too, but I would rather be 4 deep at OLB than not.  I'm assuming Christian Miller will be active also for the 4th OLB, but he reminds me of Haynes last year in that he's got potential, but he doesn't look like he's developed enough to have an impact this year.

I personally think Obada is going to get more reps with Irvin down, and I wouldn't be surprised to see a good bit of 4-3

Obada needs to go up against starters and make his mark.

Don’t worry Haynes got dis here

Hate to hear Irvin is hurt but it presents some opportunities for young/developing players. That'll help in the long run.

And Little... let's not risk concussion issues and hope he's available for Thursday's tilt with the Bucs if he's needed.

[Knockout]

Division record is going to be very important this year.  Do not mind be overly cautious here at all.  That Thursday game is an important one.
