but then you're burning 2 game day roster spots for guys that won't see the field, if you're going to rest them why not just keep them deactivated

True. I'd rather have two healthy bodies for special teams play than 2 guys that likely won't see the field at all. We have to just hope we can pull of the same result in Tampa next week and have our healthy people overcome them in adversity. Pray for no more injuries and let the wounded heal for the last stretch of the season.

SFIAH, great stuff. Most of our injuries have been short term this year and those bodies are starting to get back on the field again. It is a shame about Porter but the reports coming in suggest a 6 week period and then he could be back.

Yep! All this 9-0, 12-0 crap is just that: CRAP! We need to be healthy for the playoffs...at home...in the Dome...with only one road game... The goal is to have all of our weapons at the ready with all cylinders firing in the post season. If it means dropping a few or giving away week 17 to ensure health in the post season, so be it. We are ahead of our schedule, way ahead. I had hoped that we would have a cushion at this point in the season and we've got Charmin! Man! the view is pretty good from here. I could get used to this.
