    I'm with argolio -- there's really nothing to complain about after a blowout win (and despite the score, it was a blowout -- I felt worried for all of the minute or two between Jackson's fumble and Wilder's TD). I'm worried about the passing game being in a slump, but I don't think it is play selection. I think it's combination of RR being dinged up and tired, the o-line being better suited to run blocking, a lack of serious speed at WR and the loss of a very valuable and versatile weapon in Coombs.

    Sanders didn't make much of a difference at wide out on Saturday. I got to wondering if moving Whitacker into Coombs spot thereby getting Wilder and BWhit on the field at the same time, could be an angle. With Plumber hurt and Herdman looking decent in his place, that ratio may be available to them. Or, Ralph played outside in Pre-Season did he not? Williams or Noel are other options there also. Just thinking outside the box. Trying to think of ways in getting the best guys on the field for the push to the playoffs.

    The Coach will have to be inventive in the D.Backfield also.

    I posted all day on twitter yesterday the thought of moving Whitaker to Coombs spot and moving Williams or Noel to the Z spot on O. Do great minds think alike here?

    promise, wasn't plagiarizing (;

    reminds one of moving Clemons over to the slot. BWhit is such a smart football player, but how do you deny Wilder time? love to see this with Coombs out.

    I think that's a great idea. Whitaker is a good receiver coming out of the back field so why couldn't he be more effective in place of Coombs. Or McDaniel getting some time there with Williams or Ralph in place of Posey or Sanders. I do get a little tired of seeing TD passes going through Posey's hands in the end zone.

    I disagree about Posey. He caught a pair of TD passes as recently as Labour Day. Would love to see Williams and Noel split time at wide out with Whittaker playing slot. As stated earlier, the Colonel did not stand out in his first game.

    IIRC, Posey dropped 1 possible TD catch this year in game 1 against Hamilton. Even that was not an easy catch. Over the opposite shoulder of which he was running his pattern. Catchable, but would be considered a hi-light reel catch.
