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.

    • I just dont get the worry over losing a practice squad player that just went undrafted. Everyone just made their selections. The chances of a team wanting to sign him to an active roster after not selecting him is very low.  If that interested they would have taken him late to evaluate in person. As far as I can tell two qbs were signed off another teams practice squad last season and they were both going in to their 5th season.
    • I enjoyed reading this thread and the usual banter that follows. The only silver lining I can identify right now is we do actually have a couple of young QB's behind him and we do have a nice roster on both sides of the ball built around the most important position. So if the team overall shows some promise but we still falter largely due to a lack of consistent passing output (again) hopefully the decision makers can be free to make the best decision for the team going forward after the conclusion of this upcoming season.
    • I don't really follow the team anymore due to a variety of reasons and consequently have largely stopped posting but I agree that this is a lovely website and community. This forum probably kept me around for years longer than I would've stuck otherwise because of how difficult it was to stop checking multiple times a day. Especially appreciate how lax the moderation tends to be compared to a lot of places, the crew here does a great job. Out of curiousity I decided to try making a new account (solely for testing purposes) to see what exactly is wrong with the sign up process. The issue seems to be that it never sends you an account verification email, thus making it impossible to complete registration. This is likely something to do with the email server upstream, hope it gets fixed. Also, lol
