Snakebit but people continue to step up. Have done so all year and the defense has played better and better.

Hopefully there is no tipping point with injuries because we would be fast approaching that threshold.

It may just be a smart move. Perhaps its a minor injury that would only keep him out 2 or 3 weeks.

It makes sense to IR a guy like that so you can bring someone else up that can help in round 1, or even round 2 of the playoffs.

If this was week 10, I doubt we IR him.

On average half the teams in the NFL. The league total is now sitting around 520 players on IR or around 16.25 per team.

Re: Kikaha to IR, Edebali Returns

So the average this year is 16 players and we’re at 21. Which is sixth hugest.

Last year we were second highest at 25.

That’s a lot of IR
