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.

    • Basically agree.  He is the one of that bunch that offers upgraded pass catching along with he is supposed to be kind of special.   Then you have the OL and the ideas that if they perform you can have JAG backs and still do well. So okay we could be fine.  But Brooks is important and to me that receiving element sets him apart.  So there sure is something riding on him.     What strikes me as incongruent is people over in Atlanta or those that follow them look at Penix with a third surgery and act like it is no big deal.      And we are on pins and needles over Brooks.  Either they should worry a lot more or we should worry a lot less.  
    • I usually go a game or two optimist over the consensus here but this is too early for me to say. I need to see some players on the field.  I am not feeling real optimistic though.  
    • Okay as a ‘take CJ’ fan I actually don’t obsess over CJ and Houston, contrary to the narrative.  But I thought I picked up some noise that his OL left a lot to be desired.    Not a single Beyce supporter would judge him harshly if he had a crappy OL. We all know that.    So be fair about it.  A QB needs to be protected.  Especially a guy that gets to his spot and wants to finish the play from there. Which CJ is.
