Jeff Otah is hurt again.

[CarolinaNCSU]

Gained confidence after GB game? Yes

Confident of his ability to stop Peppers? Ehh

Good thing he won't be going against Peppers then eh? Of course Pep will switch back and forth some, but I wouldn't have much confidence in Otah's fat ass stopping Peppers anyway if he shows up. Otah is a run blocker mostly and a damn good one...but we're now a passing team, and at the end of the season I expect Otah to be gone.

Byron Bell.

We should have bought the extended warranty.

[Cat'sGrowl]

This has actually reached the point of being comical, Otah is officially the worlds largest porcelain doll.

False. Bob Sanders got put on IR today.

[4Corners]

I like Bell a lot, but at this point it's irrational to think he will amount to anything more than a quality backup

False. Bob Sanders got put on IR today.

EDIT: He is correct. Dude needs to retire.

Sanders placed on IR

this guy is a pussy - OT is shooting up the draft needs list

I wouldn't mind us using our first on an OT.

Not only does Pepper's not play on that side of the line, Bell did a great job against Clay Matthews.. Much scarier.

[Cat'sGrowl]

That would be no.

I think people ignore that Otah went from zero football DIRECTLY into week 1. He had no reps before the season started and jumped in....his body isn't going to be ready for the pounding an OLman takes right away.

I think he will be fine.

Otah played in the preseason.

Otah played in the preseason.

5 snaps isn't conditioning for an offensive lineman heading into a NFL season.

Offensive lineman take more abuse than any position in football....him being banged up early isn't that big of a shocker IMO.

Which game?

Pitt. Practiced the week before, and weeks after.

Do oreos and cheese puffs really weigh that much? Ive never hurt my back pulling out of the cabinet. Plus as long as we have a tight end Peppers problem is solved.

Not much a stretch to think Peppers would switch sides more then he already does to line up over Bell instead of Gross.

Pitt. Practiced the week before, and weeks after.

Pitt was one drive. Maybe 5-6 snaps? That isn't prep for his body.

I thought he was limited in practice right until week 1? Could be wrong though. My understanding was the he was held out from contact except for that one Pitt drive. That is what I heard.
