Do we need a less than 100% Fred to play in DP game vs Hawks ?

Nah. If Kendricks / Wallow s**t the bed last night then maybe there's a sense of urgency. Instead they played great. Much better than Bethune and Winters combo. If anything I hope Kyle sticks with what works and keeps Winters on the bench and starts Kendricks / Wallow again. I'd activate White as well. Save Warner for NFCC if we make it there then start him alongside Kendricks and I think we have a decent LB group.

Hold him for 1 more game and hope we get a chance to have him play in the championship game.

He's not playing, and I doubt he would be ready for the NFCC if we make it.

Think he has a better chance to play than Pearsall.

Fred will be nowhere near 100% as well. He hasn't played since week 6.

I don't think it's good for a MLB to play just a few snaps. It's a rhythm and flow position where the previous 10 plays inform what you do on play 11, and each drive builds on the next. Can't swap them around as easily as some positions.

Yes. He needs to play. The bone is healed. This is the playoffs. Let him play. An extra week does nothing after three months off.

He can go on 3rd downs. We had the Seahawks in a ton of 3rd and longs last week. You're telling me an 80% Warner wouldn't have shut down at least a couple of them??
He needs to play.
He needs to play.

This. TBH even with the extra week off I doubt he would be 100% in time for the super bowl
