Time To Give Cameron Artis-Payne More Snaps?

[chknwing]

Washington has close to the worst run defense in the league.  I think it would be a good idea to give CAP more snaps this game and give JStew a bit of a rest.  Especially with Fozzy being injured.   If your going to get the rookie more involved, I don't see a better team to do it against than Washington.   What says the Huddle?

Yesssssss. He is better than Fozzy. He should be getting more.

Yes. And Rivera alluded to it in his presser. We have GOT to keep stew healthy and fresh for the playoffs.

Rivera has been alluding to limiting snaps for veterans for 4 years and I still don't think it has happened. I wouldn't get your hopes up based on that.

Not opposed to it. I'd like to see us make Tolbert a weekly threat first though. I'd just like us to utilize him more..

I'm not. Ebbs and flows of games but at the same time I think we might see more of him active on game days.

No it isn't time.  I'd rather Tolbert get those touches.  And this is exactly why CAP isn't active anymore.

Fozzy injured?  I missed that.  Can someone post information, please, if it is true.

Also, while I totally agree that I'd like to see CAP get more snaps, I'm not optimistic.  After all you've got Dwan coming back, and CJ & Norwell soon.  The fight for jerseys is only getting harder, and with Stew playing like he is, I'm just not sure Ron's going to pull him.

That said, it was scary to see Stew go down with a potential injury last week, with only Tolbert & Fozzy active.  I'd LIKE CAP to be active and get some playing time, but I'm not holding my breath.

Let's unleash the Wegman.

I'd rather see Tolbert get them. He's closer in running style.

why you say "if" it is true.

hes on the injury report with a hip injury. he was limited in practice today.

if i'm not mistaken, CAP was put in on third and short a few weeks ago to convert and when he failed the huddle went ballistic.

now there are posts to give him more snaps???

i'm confused.

I think when we officailly clinch a spot, you'll see CAP get a good amount of touches. If we can get him going and use him in the playoffs to spell Stewart, it could be huge for our already dominant run game. 

Well... let's keep winning and hopefully in week 14 we can clinch a spot with a win over ATL.

Thanks, and sorry.  No disrespect intended.  I had glanced at the injury report quickly, but missed it.  Didn't mean to doubt you, just was surprised I hadn't realized / noticed it.
