We sacked Cousins 5 times yesterday, and we are getting CJ back against the Boys?

CJ is eligible to come back this week, but they haven't made it official yet. When he comes back, he will take someone else's roster spot. Last I read, they were going to make the call after he does some on-field work Monday or Tuesday.

Probably Horton, since he was inactive this week.

For those who keep comparing Ealy to Johnson please stop. Johnson is (6'2, 285), Ealy is (6'4, 275). He is more in the mold of Greg Hardy (6'4, 277). 

Ealy so far IMO is a year ahead of Hardy's progression, and as a 2nd round pick vs a former (6th round pick in Hardy) he should be.

If I were to guess, the starting unit will remain as is and I think we'll see Johnson when he returns as a part of the rotation as he gets  back into football condition.

Having Big Money come back is only going to be helpful.  I don't think it will lead to an 8 sack day against the Cowboys, but every bit of pressure from the front four helps against Romo.

Dallas has a very good Oline, and I am worried about them dominating our D line.  That's going to be where a major component of the game will take place.  If we are able to beat up on Dallas's OL, then I think we'll be golden.  But Dallas does have some excellent players...

    • Bleacher Report trade and mock has us trading to 9 and picking SG Brayden Burries Charlotte Hornets recieve: Kyrie Irving and No. 9 pick Dallas Mavericks receive: LaMelo Ball, No. 14 pick and No. 18 pick The Hornets just finished their sixth season with Ball. It was only their second with a winning record, their sixth without a playoff trip and the sixth in which someone else paced them in win shares (Kon Knueppel this time around). While they'd surely like to keep building on their second-half momentum, maybe they're just unconvinced that Ball can lead a winning team. Maybe they credit that stretch run less to him and more to the addition of Knueppel, the ascension of Brandon Miller and some out-of-nowhere gains on the defensive end.   Charlotte should be dreaming big right now, and perhaps it believes a steadier hand at point guard is needed to realize that. Or maybe it feels it needs a little more time to bring everything together and thinks that task would be simpler without Ball's money on the books and with a top-10 pick in a loaded draft instead of two selections in the mid-teens.   Either way, this shakeup works. Short-term, a healthy Irving should be far easier to follow than Ball. You may not always know if Irving is playing, but you know what you'll get if he does: elite shotmaking, all-time handles, offensive ingenuity and the ability to work both on and off the ball. He could show this young roster what's required to win for a year or two (he has a $42.4 million player option for 2027-28) or even stick around longer if the partnership proves especially fruitful.   The Hornets also add a building block in Burries, who offers both plug-and-play polish and flashes of shot-creation that hint at star potential. In short, they could better their chances of winning both now and in the future while collecting both the best player in the trade and the highest draft pic
    • I'd hire him in a heartbeat. Hell if he wanted the job, I'd have Canales packing his poo right now and I don't dislike Canales. It's just that firing a 106-58 coach is crazy work. That's a 65% winning percentage. That's the equivalent of averaging 11 wins a season. That's incomprehensible for a fanbase That's never experienced back to back winning seaons.
