Chuba Hubbard is expected to miss Week 5

I mean, in all honesty, it shouldn't change much.  Is he better than Rico? Sure.  Is it by a big enough margin to alter that much? Not really.  I like the way Rico runs.  He isn't as patient as Hubbard which I think leads to greater chances of big runs but also more negative runs

Well it appears nearly all of our offensive rookies will be getting substantial playing time.

McMillan, Etienne, Evans [edit] +Horn

Miami's defense is crap - 2nd worst in 3rd down conversion %, 26th in yards per game, no real threats.

Will be interested to see if anyone makes noise.

Or maybe Chop Robinson just destroys us lol.

What about Jimmy Horn? Shouldn't he be in the mix?

Not sure if Miami having a bad D really is going to matter though.  Cards, Patriots, and Jags all have worse pass defenses to date (but I do think Miami has secondary injuries).

Horn is going to come if for some telegraphed schemed up plays where everyone will know they are going to attempt to give him the ball

They said he was going to be active. 
 

The running back thing, we are going to miss Chuba pass blocking I think but maybe Etienne can show some moves. I believe he has some. 

Also I said this elsewhere but the downfield shots vs the 3rd and long handoffs rather than trusting the QB that was complained about here, was addressed in an Athletic article by Person. 
With Legette back I am expecting some Russel Wilson type downfield prayers to be tried this week.

Like playing Super Tecmo Bowl growing up and the entire D just gang tackles your ball carrier immediately because they correctly guessed your play call. LOL

Agree. Agree. Agree. Horn should get snaps based on being the only WR that can actually stretch the field and pressure safeties with speed.

    • Dude, I think I might be having Jarvy withdrawals... I ripped the sleeves off of all of my t-shirts in my sleep last night. Every bite of my Alpha-Bita cereal spelled Seth, this morning. And, I took 7 naps before lunch. I'm losing it guys! Jarvy's Jaunty Band of Jaggoffs are getting more play than he is... smh Team Canada doesn't treasure Jarvis the way he deserves. He should take his band down to Liechtenstein, get a bag of passports, and start his own Olympic team! The raw animal magnetism of Jarvilicious will bring in a handful of NHLers on its own. And, since the IOC believes in collective punishment, he could have his pick of the rookies. Then, just fill out the rest of the roster with the maple blooded great white northerners who couldn't make the top squad. Can't trust this assembled awesomery to just any old Liechtensteinien with a clipboard and a whistle. Gotta bring in a legend worthy of this gold medal gambit. A hockey HOFer with the balls to buck the system and the aura to match our maverick. Huere geil, Vaduz!!! 2030 Gold Medal guaranteed!
    • Tennessee isn't trading a QB on a 2nd round contract that has starting experience.  That's bad business.
    • OT is the top priority as it is both an immediate and future need.  I wouldn't be past trading up slightly to get the guy we want.  You need that rookie contract right now.  Icky is a dead 17.5 million for the season.  Morton is 20+ mil for the season, Hunt is 20+ mil for the season.  There needs to be forward thinking regarding the future.   Caleb Lomu is a left Tackle, he's a solid prospect, he may be the best pick for us now and in the future.  I would seriously consider cutting Hunt after 2026, and let Lomu and Icky fight for the LT job, loser moves inside.  Icky's future may be at guard after this injury anyway.  If Damien Lewis keeps up his level of play he will need to be paid sooner rather than later.  Yosh and BC can be our top two depth OL at an affordable price.  You will need to look at OT again in 2027. Getting an EDGE for the sake of getting an EDGE outside of the top 10 is pretty risky.  I wouldn't be against eyeing someone like Cashius Howell, Derrick Moore, or TJ Parker in the 2nd (even if we trade a future pick to move up) or DDS in the third. I'd love to see us try to sign both Leo Chenal and Matt Millano in FA.   Chenal for the blitzing element we are missing from our LB corps and Millano for his elite coverage.  They could both work in tandem.  Remember, our FO has deep ties to both KC and Buffalo. I love thinking about the draft, but until Free Agency hits, we are clueless.  Looking at the strength of FA and the draft, OL is priority #1, LB #2, and EDGE #3.  We know what happens to Bryce when protection falls apart.
