Powell and SMB aren't ready to come out of the oven just yet.

You don't want to see them unless we're completely out of the division race.

You think #91 is more of a finished product than Powell.... ok....

JG was raw too, but for years people here said he was our best pass rusher sitting on the bench...

Sometimes raw is cooked enough. (I like Sushi)

No surprise. This team hasn't shown any evidence that it will show up in Detroit and take care of business this year.
As far as reggie, it will be hard to watch if he "goes off" against the Saints.

I said no such thing, I quoted Gordon Ramsay saying their raw, I didn't say #91 was more of a finished product, the coaching staff are saying that by putting him in the rotation.

I think in his prime with us he could've been our Marshall Faulk. Sure hope Ingram is back. We need him vs Detroits front 7.
Reggie had an opportunity to prove he was an every down back when we played Seattle in 2010. He was the only decent running back we had left on the roster that season. He couldn't get it done. That's the reason we drafted Mark Ingram. He would have had a great chance to get 20 carries in that game but as I've already said, he could not get it done.

It is strange that 2 UDFA's that were a bit of a surprise to even make the team are starting ahead of our #2 and #5 draft picks.

Considering they haven't done anything to prove it, I am surprised.

#91 wasn't really impressive even in the preseason yet everyone talked about him because of the story.

Dixon was good in the preseason but has really struggled during his few snaps during the regular season.

I wonder if there is some internal struggle going on between Loomis and the coaching staff... interesting.

Not to be rude, but how would you know? Have you been going to practices and in meetings or is that just an unproven opinion?
