Why Aren't Christensen & Brown Playing?

Well the guys they have playing now are Definitely not ready....nor will they ever be. Take the rookie with the most potential and play him, the other rook Asap. 

They can't proceed with 'the less then JAG's' they have on the field now.

I'm not against it.

That said, holding a rookie out till you feel he's truly ready is a valid coaching decision too.

I mean Larry Allen was a big Ole guy and he was dominant.

Games last 60 minutes.

So just bring him in on jumbo packages.

He is a literal road grader

Who still has to know his assignments.

Second round guard.

Third round tackle.

And they were wrong about that. Broski is not a guard. He would get obliterated by pretty much any starting DT in the league unless someone is starting a Fua out there

We don't know that yet.

It took an injury to Amini for a far superior Norwell to get a chance. 

 

 

likely will be the same here.

Granted.

But Damn Saban is a pretty demanding guy with a demanding program.

We all know Tuscaloosa is way hotter than Charlotte so that shouldn't be an issue. 

I just don’t know about this one.

Likely because the coaches don't think they're ready.

And yeah, they may actually be right.

I'm all for seeing them play too but I'm not yet convinced we're dealing with another Ron Rivera.

See Tahir Whitehead...

No one is saying ''Riveraesque'' 

However, we have seen Rhule stay with at least one vet for too long, there is ground for some concern.

Possible but I hope not.

It took a few weeks to move on from Greg Little, but they did.

Didn't Christensen go in a few games back and get knocked on his ass and then promptly get pulled two plays later? I am misremembering that?

In this case, we're talking about more than one layer.

You had the starters, then you have a vet backup in Dennis Daley.

Daley's still living off a prior rep, in my opinion.

Erving stepped on his foot.

This could be a Christensen needs to bulk up and Brown needs to slim down situation. Or maybe they don't know the offense well enough, or both.
