Chance that Hayden Starts in Week 1?

[firstdayfan]

With all the talk about the Panthers trading for a DT or picking up one off of waivers, what are the chances that not much happens and Hayden starts in week 1?

As much as I think we will pick up a guy at the last minute I don't think that player will be up to speed enough to start against philly. With that said I think we are looking at about a 65% chance that Hayden gets the nod. I think a trade for a starter is around 20%, picking up a player after cuts that ends up starting a few days later is about 9%, and Marlon Favorite is about 5%.

I know that equals 99% but I figure that there is a 1% chance that the Kemo injury was a just a dream and he starts every game this season!

Didn't Favorite start and have more playing time than Hayden last week or am I imagining that?

[Bones McCoy]

If Hayden starts, there is a 0% chance I watch the rest of the season.

He did and he played much better than Hayden as well. Not only do I seriously doubt that Hayden starts (barring further injuries) but it's possible that he doesn't even make the team.

I think Favorite could very well start over Hayden, but with a heavy rotation.

With that being said, the Iggles are a pass-first team, and Hayden could be named starter.

Can we please put "Nick" in the title of these threads?

[Sam Mills Fan]

I think Hayden Panettiere has more leg strength in those thighs of hers than Nick Hayden.

If he makes the team, I predict he starts. But that only means that he takes the first defensive snap. Fox always puts his veterans in. I predict he starts, but I predict favorite or [Player to be Named Later] gets the majority of the playing time and Hayden is supplanted by week 2.

[R0CKnR0LLA]

Seriously if we haven't added a better DT by the start of the season, and are stuck with Hayden and Favorite as options, we are kinda screwed either way.

Seriously if we haven't added a better DT by the start of the season.

I think something will happen soon.

I think Hayden started or at least came in right after the first snap. I remember one of those long runs early in the game and seeing number 98 falling all over himself.

[pepaw]

I hope not.

[Mother Grabber]

Hayden won't start if Hurney wants to keep his job. If he is our best DT come game 1, then Hurney has failed miserably.
