Will Armah Be Active On Sunday?

So now that he's up on the 53 the question is will he be active on gameday or not? 

Here are the last week's inactives with everyone healthy:

RB Cameron Artis-Payne

DE Daeshon Hall

LB Jeremy Cash

C Greg Van Roten

OT John Theus

QB Brad Kaaya

CB LaDarius Gunter

 

Honestly, can't see why any of these guys would be active over Armah, after bringing him up this week. 

CAP clearly not going to be active with Stew, McC and Fozzy all healthy, considering he was never active last year when Stew was healthy when we didn't have McC.

Hall unlikely to be up as our DL depth is wholesome without him. Likely a redshirt year for him if no injuries, which is just fine.

Cash already has Norris ahead of him so probably not.

Van Roten, maybe if Kalil can't go but in that case Kalil would take this inactive spot.

Theus, no need for more depth active on the OL.

Kaaya, no.

Gunter, likely not as we already have a fair amount of depth at corner active.

 

So I think he'll almost certainly be active, and evidence also seems to point to him actually contributing on offense. Dickson had been playing the FB position for us but now he'll be taking over Olsen's role so those snaps are up for grabs, and they aren't going to Manhertz... Big opportunity for the kid, hoping he takes advantage and shows something in pass pro, lead blocking and even the receiving game or short yardage runs. 

 

Thoughts on Armah's role this weekend and going forward?

I think he has to be because just in case one of Dickson or Manhertz goes down we are throwing out half the playbook with only 1 FB/TE available.

Dickson takes over Olsen's full time TE spot. Manhertz plays Dickson's TE2 snaps and Armah plays Dickson's FB snaps.

Armah should get more time with the ones in practice period.   I've never really been one to latch on to specific players on the team but Armah has caught my eye more than most rookies over the years in his limited play.  He just seems to be a baller and we need more ballers on this team.  Give Armah a chance please.

it just makes sense. if you're intent on shuffling dickson into olsen's role, then you have to put armah into dickson's role. we have to have that extra blocker because the 5 we have up front just can't do the job consistently enough.

 

Manhertz makes more sense in Dicksons role.

 

I think Armah will be an additional tool, not replacing one.

      Strength of Schedule for 2025

      Bryce and Dave will determine how many games this team wins next year. It’s not on the WRs. The RBs. LBs. This is about 2 things: 1. Can Bryce continue to come up big in the few key downs that decide most games?  2. Can Canales evolve his play calling to counter punch like the big boys do. Half time adjustments.  teams that score 30+ points on the regular win more games than not. That’s on Bryce and Dave. The offense is top 10 at every position group, save for TE and QB. A baller TE is gravy but not crucial when the receivers are dudes.  The defense is the defense. It’ll be better this season, hopefully by a large margin, but Dave/Bryce is really where it’s at.

      Normally I'd wholeheartedly agree with this. But I feel like teams figured out this offense after the Raiders game. Bryce was so inept the first 2 games that we couldn't really even run the offense. Dalton's first game showed what we had. But after that game, coverages got a lot tighter and windows were smaller. When Bryce came back in, his ability to extend plays made a big difference. It's really difficult to stop a QB that can beat/escape 1on1 tacklers. It puts a lot of pressure on the defense when you blitz. And he was completing throws in tight coverage with anticipation. Point being Bryce wasn't throwing to wide open receivers that were schemed open by the offense. Occasionally yes. But not often.

      With the additions we've made to our roster combined with the state of the division and the conference as a whole there is no excuse for this team not to make a legitimate push for 8-9 wins. Anything less is honestly inexcusable. There will be no more free passes for being a doormat in this iteration of the league where even mediocre teams are competing for playoff spots.
