I didn’t list him because we really have no idea how our defense would look with him in it. They knew they were going to go ahead without him early on.
Our run defense took a huge step back as soon as Klein went out.
Same thing with Vaccaro. Secondary just hasn’t been the same .
Olsen would not have been as open with him in it.

Peat hurts but we have done well with plug and play along the line all year but we have zero options if/when Armstead or someone else goes down

Breaux would have gotten hurt again and we really still don’t know if he’s all that good and he’s a penalty machine. Crawly is better.

Analzone looked to show promise but he probably would be on IR again anyway. Don’t think he will make it long term

Streif hurt but I don’t think he or Rami would have developed as well if he had played and our line wound up just as good and more versatile without him

I think some of these injuries wound up to be a blessing in disguise.

We really feel the impact of Klein and Vacarro out.
