2 Activate James and use here and there like they've done with Kap. Set him up to succeed in VERY specific situations and let him grow.

3 How many snaps has Celek been give per game? Does his presence impact anything at this time. Delaine can block - and block VERY well,

Celek has caught one pass I believe ...if it's blocking we need from him , Dobbs can be the #3 TE ....I'm fearful that Frank will suffer further damage to his ribs, and be less effective later in the season , Granted this is an important game , but I think the rest would increase the chance of Frank coming back healthier for the Bears game

I for one dont want Frank to rush back into things , Rib issues could complicate things in the long run , a week off would do The Tank a lot of good

Dobbs could be our #3 TE against Arizona ....any thoughts ?

anthony dixon is above james and jacobs on the depth chart

Well yeah.....we're gonna be sitting starters come week 14.....lol

I say start Frank, but lessen his carries and activate jacobs for this game. I think his running style will give az fits going from Frank to Hunter to Jacobs (Smash, Dash, n Bash)

Though I have no idea what the coaches are seeing, if anyone plays instead of Celek, I would prefer to see Jenkins if only to let him run some go patterns to try to open up some underneath routes. The lack of a speed receiver is the single greatest lacking in the passing game at this point.

Didnt he average 5+ ypc? I don't remember him getting many reps, but he played well.

He should activate Jenkins, we're solid at HB right now. I want to see some real speed on the outside.

LMJ will not be activated.

He was drafted so we can pick his brain when we face teams running that Oregon no huddle offense

No way any of us can accurately answer because none of us see LMJ in practice or know if he's ready. But given that he hasn't dressed yet, he's probably not ready.

I think I saw him in the Oregon locker room after the game last week along with Brandon Jacobs betraying our team to the Ducks
