Any bets on whether or not Kelly plays? I have a feeling he will.

Hard to say. So much cloak and dagger around the situation. Cleared for practice says what exactly? He’s ready, no? Of course, none of us know exactly how well and strong his healing was, but I bet coach does. Keep Montreal guessing, I think they have a fantastic young team.

I honestly can't see how you start Kelly when all he did all pre-season was throw in street clothes. Even if it is said he is "healed", that means one thing for just normal living. Playing football at the pro level is a different thing completely. The worst possible outcome would be if he came into the game, and got re-injured.

Nick Arbuckle is totally competent and capable of leading the team for now. Putting Kelly in makes no sense to me.

Agree. I’d start Kelly at home with no opposing crowd noise causing snap confusion. Even with this good line, we’ve seen him lit up before.

I would sit Kelly for one week. Have him dress but not start.

This is what I’m thinking as well.

I see no point in dressing him unless he's 100%, and if he's 100% he starts.

Chad Kelly is the clear leader of this team , and his presence on the sideline in uniform would be an inspiration even if he doesn’t play. Obviously he’s close to 100%, so if he’s dressed maybe he could come in in the 4th and pull a win out of the fire if needed. ;-)
