Does anyone buy that Rivera is debating what to do with Luke?

Luke wants to play

Rivera made a point a weeks back that cleared players play and was a LB. 

I just don't buy Ron is debating what to do. Ron is a legit coach in the fact his role is to take ownership of many things even if they aren't his personal views.  He believes in chain of command. 

To me this is a GM or Richardson making the call.  Not sure why they are playing this game.  Maybe they don't want to piss Luke and some of the fanbase off by saying he is officially done. 

I initially endorsed sitting him. Now I endorse a heathly player playing that wants to.  If Cam and others are going to be trotted out each week....I don't see why you can/should be selective with Luke at this point.   Cam's out there taking dome shots and playing hurt. No real solid reason for putting bubble wrap on a healthy Luke given what other stars are doing.

Since Luke has had two concussions in a year, I'd rather keep him out two meaningless games. If he comes back and gets another concussion, he will really need to consider his life outside of football. I understand that he could come back and have a concussion in the first game next year, but these last two are absolutely meaningless and not worth the risk, in my opinion.

For my own selfish reasons, I want to see him play and hit some people. I don't want to go into next preseason or regular season on egg shells wondering how he's going to react to his first live contact in nine months. 

With that said, my selfish reason doesn't mean squat and Luke should do what Luke wants to do.

Is it worth the risk playing Cam in two meaningless games behind a patchwork OL while the league is green lighting headhunting on him?

That is my issue sitting Luke at this point.  I mean NFL is brutal for all.  Can't really get behind not playing one healthy stud and having other studs going out there

Ain't a troll. I initially wanted him shut down.

then I watched Cam Monday Night.  There    are some hypocritical elements to shutting Luke down healthy and having equal studs playing in meaningless games.

Two this season? I know he had one last I don't recall a second this season.

    • The amount of mocks showing us take a WR is startling. Not good resources at the moment, for sure, but it does seem like the general opinion is that we are going to go all in on the current offense. Which, I mean.....let's say we hit a HR at WR again in the upcoming first. Now you have TMac, Drafted WR, Coker and pick whomever of Horn, Tremayne, XL, etc. Especially if we locked in a good C, this now becomes a potentially attractive spot for an NFL QB. Well, minus Canales, I suppose. I wouldn't be super against it provided we aren't reaching for a WR or dramatically ignoring BPA.
    • And they still brought in people to fit his D. Im talking about the quality of what they brought in and not why there aren't more DBs and Horns. His guys have been not good IMO. Jackson was a DM guy too. 
    • I just want to see us fired up and playing like there is absolutely nothing to lose...we've done it against teams where we pretty much had "no chance" and look how it turned out. I want to give my TV a piledriver when I watch us shell up and play hyper-conservative.
