No rotation. Fox gave the biggest liability on defense his job back......despite Martin being the clear cut best man for the job.

Reason 34: Why Fox doesn't know what he is doing.

If Jake is 80% this week he will get his job back also and he and Godfrey will both make sure we get STOMPED next week.......and NE is beatable if we played a good game.

You should change your handle to WPS. Worse Possible Scenario.

With the new rules that went into effect TODAY. Martin was not allowed to go back into the game if he showed ANY signs of concussion. No matter what he said. If he did in fact suffer a concusion then you will be right about Godfrey next week because Martin will be forced to sit out another week, regardless.

it is called reality....and some people like to pretend Fox's decisions are right.

Godfrey got the job back. Martin was a backup and special teams player today. That is why Godfrey got ever snap prior to that hit.

I'm pretty sure he got hurt there and must of gotten hurt again or Martin would have been in on at least a few plays..

Or Fox gave Godfrey the job back.....and that is why Martin was playing only special teams. If Martin was hurt and couldn't play S.......then he couldn't play ST.

also, if Fox wasn't going to give Godfrey the job back...there would be not be this "let's alternate our horrible S and new and promising S who played great" talk once Godfrey got healthy.

Looked to me like Godfrey had a pretty good day. An interception, the break-up vs. Winslow in the end zone, great coverage position on Beason's 2nd pick... maybe the bench time did him some good.

Also, Martin got hurt on the kickoff following the opening drive of the game - Carolina's D hadn't even taken the field for their first series yet.

well, the guys are the Observer are reporting Godfrey did get the starting job back. Proof again, Fox starts his guys over talent unless injury forces his hand.

Jake will be back unless he goes to IR. Also, I firmly believe Jarrett or Moore could be make the offense more productive if they got Moose's # of targets.

I think Martin is better also..but Godfrey played really well today. So can't really bash Fox on this. Maybe the time on the sidelines did make a difference.

On the Bryant deep passes Godfrey was out of position and there were quite a few times where he failed to make an adjustment within his zone. He lacks the ability to consistently read the offense in a manner a safety has to, he is much more suited for a CB spot than FS...

      DJ Moore trade talk

      He’s kind of overrated to be honest. Never really felt like a true #1 or elevated his play to become a guy the defense really has to worry about.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By fieryprophet · Posted

      I'm going to be real, the reason that vote ended up so lop-sided by the end was directly due to my programming. So there's nothing tongue in cheek about it. Also I left PFF after the Collinsworth acquisition (didn't want to move to Cincy) but have stayed involved in analytics via backdoor channels, but I can absolutely say that the experience was eye-opening, not because those guys are unquestionable football savants and that I became one by proxy, but because the amount of information that becomes available outside of what the typical fan has access to is revelatory and also really drives home how much context is still being missed even with all of that information. You don't discover that you know everything, you discover how much you still can't know no matter how hard you try, hence my point about the NFL not being able to figure out what makes a QB good. There's a lot of AI work going into that now and even that only seems to further confuse things vs. actually enlighten the problem. In the professional realm teams don't really talk about quarterbacks as A strictly being better than B, but how A can potentially perform better than B given a specific context of C. Of course those contexts may be wider for A than B, but there's also contexts where B can outshine A, even with lesser talent surrounding them. So what good teams strive to do is ultimately define a process of how they want their entire team to operate under schematically, find players that fit that scheme, and hopefully find a guy whose skillset will be maximized running that scheme with those players. Where bad teams fall of the wagon is constantly shifting those schemes and chasing bad fits or fads vs. sticking with a core identity and developing it.
