Well that is saying quite something about the guys behind him not being able to beat him out. I have said it before, TS is the WR version of Scott Shanle.

Great example. Shanle seldom made splash plays but was rarely out position.

Here's a new segment from NOF on Tre'Quan and why he's still around. It speaks to all of this. The most telling line, I feel, is the last one where Triplett says something along the lines of "When it comes down to the 5th WR it's not about making catches," it's all about the other stuff you can do for the team.

Well after he's "rehabbed" his groin, he can add 50-65 lbs and become added depth to the O line :rolleyes:.

At this point, I"m focused on guys who will contribute (special teams) next Sunday. The Titans.

On paper, this game is a toss up.

No Kamara, no blockzilla & no certainty if Miller is able to go at the moment.

DCarr may have to air it out a bit to keep that stingy Titans defense honest.

MT could be doubled, leaving Olave and Shaheed in single coverage. I expect Juwan to be quite active as well.

One week away :bng:!

If you watched the video you know that Triplett also pointed out that Tre'Quan contributes to special teams whereas the vets they brought in couldn't block OR play special teams.

Limit penalties, win in those trenches on both sides & the turnover margin ...

Dubya.

Agreed. Old school philosphy. Tough game.

I'm really looking forward to seeing what our new Dlineman will do. Bottle up DHopkins and Henry. Burks has been up and down as a pass catcher, but still dangerous.

FYI, one of their talented CBs Caleb Farley will remain on the PUP list & is out vs the Saints.

I think DCarr will win these matchups against their secondary.
