Maybe I missed something this week, but I thought all indications were that Norwell would be ready for this game.

That was speculation early on. It didn't pan out.

Didn't look good enough in practice Wednesday, sat out yesterday and was limited today.

Aight funch, the time is now.

The smart move is definitely to rest any injuries this week and then let them play next week. The short turn around and the next game being in Dallas means any 50/50 guys would likely not be recovered in time to play in Dallas if they played Sunday. Resting them this week gives them an additional 4 days of recovery and then another 10 days until the next game to deal with lingering soreness or swelling.

Devin Funchess will get the start if Philly doesn't play

I think it is better to keep Tillman out.  At his age, you don't want to rush anything and we're going to need him in the postseason.  I have a lot of faith in Bene!

[AceBoogie]

I'm excited about Funchess getting the start

Probably going to be Bersin.

Bersin has been getting a jersey for the past weeks and playing ST, so Norwood is the only option if they want to continue with 5 active WRs.

Bersin is more of the backup to the slot position which is Cotchery and Norwood is the outside guy. If Philly is out then I'd expect both Bersin and Norwood to be active with Norwood as the backup to Ginn and Funchess on the outside.

According to you.

I thought I saw Bersin in street clothes last game. Could be mistaken.

Both Bersin and Norwood were inactive last game.

Uh no he hasn't.

Colin Jones vs. Jamison Crowder: One of the first times all season a matchup has been 100% slanted in favor of the opposition. This scares me.

I am suddenly worried about our back 4

I am not, now our whole D-Line is back besides CJ.  We'll be alright.  Colin Jones is very adequate as a slot cover.
