Dcash4 Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 Yes. Damaging your rookies development and putting him in a bad spot for the sake of Dan Moore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

warfelg Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 Dan Moore literally cannot play RT. Between Jones and Cook, if Chucka being banged up is true, give me Jones in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustPlainNasty Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 I don't see anything wrong with playing Jones at RT. This lineup needs familiarity cause of all the mistakes they make , changing two pieces only complicates things more and for both sides. Jones needs to be on the field wherever it is. He's a big boy, he should be able to handle it. Chuks effort at time this year in the run game especially has been questionable. There is very little to any extra effort. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
43M Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 This feels like another game we might barely win, even with our offense sucking for 55 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I’m sounding like a broken record but so many players on this team with no positional flexibility. Moore is one of them. Chucks has other issues. Seumalo is a LG only. Cole is a C only. Before trading them Green was a guard only, Dotson is a RG only. I truly think Anderson and Jones, the two rookies, are our only OL players with positional flexibility. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Livewire Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 I still can't believe they gave Chuks that contract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s the issue I take. What has been the point of development then? We think he is more talented than the backup RT? If he were to play based on talent he should have started week 1 or stayed in the lineup after filling in when he played well in his one start. If we can’t trust the guy literally taking second team snaps at RT all year what is his purpose on the 53? This is process Vs results. Because who knows, the results could be solid. But if that’s the case it just continues to point to an inept coaching staff who should have been playing the talent all along in an offense - and an offensive line - that has been lacking it. I said in the off-season that if Moore was the starter they would be between a rock and a hard place because of backup RT - you are either fighting against development or fighting against talent. Those choose to end the development. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
