So far Howard and Parker have been injured. If Tua doesn't play then there's a very real chance we lose this game. The Jaguars will probably do a good job of helping us beat them, but I don't see there are any guarantees.
If Tua does play then I can see two unpleasant scenarios.
1 - The coaching staff are afraid Tua's ribs aren't sufficiently healed and so to avoid him get hit they're going to tell him it's quick passes or nothing, have a bunch of bubble screens, and have him playing defensively.
2 - Tua gets hit, his ribs break again, or become too painful to play, and he's out for more weeks and we're back to a not fully healthy Brisset.
None of this points to a fun game on Sunday.
I hope I'm wrong. -
#2 is the nightmare scenario and if that happens, I'd be inclined to roll with Sinnett for the foreseeable future. Brissett's experience helps extend plays outside the pocket, but I don't think he can be effective banged up (for the same reasons Tua is banged up). Hoping and praying that doesn't come to pass.

No Howard’s or Jones at CB today? Ouch.
Starting to look like I should stay in bed for sure and I was already considering that anyways. :lol: -
-
So Williams is out again after playing just one game all season. Why the hell do we waste a roster spot on this guy do they ever learn?
-
No Parker today either? Ouch. Thought there was always some decent chemistry there between Tua and Parker. Missing alot of key players today on both sides of the ball.
I wonder if we'll ever build a team with the key ability being availability. Enough broken, spare, and developmental parts already Grier. -
Eichenberg at LT, Jackson at LG this week. Interesting. Lets see if it helps.
-
This team just can't help but constantly shoot itself in the foot.
Great job by Tua to avoid that sack and hit Waddle for the first. Nice
Another false start. What a joke Austin Jackson is. -
Hollins spending alot of time talkin, Tua grabs him and drags him into the huddle. Nice to see some leadership there.

Impressive drive from Tua. There's nothing else to say than that. Impressive control of the team (dragging Hollins into the huddle when talking too much smack), impressive accurate short passes, impressive downfield throws, nice mobility, good poise and pocket presence. Just an overall impressive drive there from Tua.
-
I think those guys are "sleeping late" today.
-
Good drive by Tua! Now i just hope they keep the pressure on.
-
I found it funny seeing some of the old names resurfacing this week with the typical nonsense only to be no shows currently. Wait and see if Tua throws a pick though or we go down on the scoreboard; they'll wake up.
I've got no problem praising Tua, but no problem criticizing him either. I'm that way with every player. -
Feels like this defense is going to get roasted today I think without Howard and Jones.
-
3rd and 2, 5 yard pass to the TE and there's nobody within 8 yards of him and the result is a 19 yard gain. Ugh..

Lawrence goes for 350+ today

Don't forget McKinney too.
Going to be tough on D today though without Howard and Jones.mlb1399 likes this.
