Allen, Cherilus, and Toler out Sunday

[PeterBowman]

saw Mike Wells tweet on ESPN....if there's a game to rest them, this is the one.

[PrincetonTiger]

Agreed

All three could benefit from the week off.

[NagelHausForge]

Wouldn't mind seeing them rest some others as well... like Reggie.  Let Nicks, Hilton, Moncrief and Whalen take care of business.

 

Maybe also sit Freeman and Redding too. 

 

Just a thought.

[Ja'Crispy]

We should not need them this week. Let them rest.

[TKnight24]

Gotta love the Jaguars, the only team that makes it feel as if you get a bye week 3 times a year :clap:

And if they sit Reggie I hope they say so before the game so I can start #FeedMoncrief on my fantasy team

Have to watch out for those trap games though. Just because they're bad, doesn't mean its a done deal. Hell, the Raiders just beat one of the hottest teams in the league last night.

[Flash7]

If we learned anything from last night's Raiders - Chiefs game, it's that there are no guaranteed wins. Let's not get too cute. If guys are healthy they should play, and the guys that are injured should rest up. 

[Dark Superman]

Bortles can play.. And we have seen what our pass defense has looked like without Toler.

You know what they always say - "Any given Sunday, anything can happen." So if you are calling this one a trap game, all 16 are trap games. We are talking about playing against a divisional opponent, not the Raiders.

 

I was surprised to see the Raiders jump out to a big lead last night. The Chiefs probably are overrated. Whatever the reason, it was a reminder you should not expect a blowout just because the Jaguars are 1-9.

[lollygagger8]

If anyone needs rest it's DQ Jackson. He's probably still tired from getting run over the entire game last Sunday. ;)

Chiefs are frauds though. Not as good as they show at times

Average team at best

No receiving threats. Charles is their offense. Then their front 7 is their defense outside of Eric Berry

[IndyD4U]

I'd like to see Nixon get the start at RT.

 

Would like to see what Dewey McD could do as well.

Dewey is the man on Special Teams!

One thing about, we may lack on offense & defense but special teams come to play every time

Guess it helps when you have the best P in the league kicking too

[ProblChld32]

Not thrilled about this, but its the Jags so yea...

I'm curious to see if Denard Robinson will run wild on us. Wouldn't surprise me if he does

[Coffeedrinker]

That is too bad about all of them but Toler has been playing well all season and GC played well against both the Giants and the Pats.

He doesn't need to rest.  He spent most of last week's game on his back.

[Superman]

Injuries happen. Gordy usually plays well enough on the outside (aside from the one drive late in the Giants game), Fleener has been blocking well this year and was terrific as a receiver against the Pats, and Cherilus has been nursing injuries all year, so a week off is a good thing for him. Hopefully Nixon is ready to play at RT (or Reitz, if necessary). 

 

Favorable matchup for us, at home vs. the Jags. I think we'll survive, and hopefully we're closer to full strength against Washington (they aren't very good, either). 

[Smonroe]

Have they said who's starting at RT?  I have confidence in Reitz.  Nixon looked good in the limited time he's played.  But that seems like it was ages ago.

[TKnight24]

Hello, Kettle?

I think that statement could apply equally to our team. Don't look past the Jaguars, they might get lucky and have their game of the season against us as they have done before.

Exactly, we're frauds too. Nothing more than AFC South champs at the moment. We're not a top team. Middle of the pack kinda team. The kinda team that may beat a top opponent from time to time but for the most part can't hang with the elites. Which I'll take over the dreadful 2-14 season anyday

Trap games are ones that you SHOULD win, but can go into the game taking your opponent lightly and end up losing. And the Raiders reference was because they are a division rival of the Chiefs. Almost mirror situation. Top team in the division going up against the worst.

Not that it's really meaningful, but the Jags beat the Browns for their first win.  Except for a few players like QB, and maybe two WRs, the Browns have better personnel than we do (IMHO).

 

Again, it's not really saying much other than 'Any given Sunday...'.

[Cynjin]

especially Gosder....he needs the rest. Him playing hurt has become a detriment to the team. He needs to be healthy so he can play like he did last year.

 

Gosder has not been playing well this year, hopefully he will do better with the added time to heal.  I do wonder about the defense without Toler.  The Raiders showed again last night that no team should be taken lightly.

[Mr.Debonair]

Mighty confident aren't you all?

Purifoy may get some snaps as well.  

[ruksak]

I think we've proven we aren't a good enough team to rest players like it's week 17 of an undefeated season.

Except Andrew Luck>Alex Smith  

  

Let's face it. Andrew, TY, Reggie, Fleener/Allen can practically win a game by themselves. Especially against the Jags.

[wesd2890]

He doesn't need to rest. He spent most of last week's game on his back.

.. too funny..

[Moopsiepuffs]

Thank Gawd they are playing the soon-to-be London Monarchs.

Nixon should be an upgrade at RT running blocking 

 

Gordy on the outside I don't like, Its been a struggle for the Jags offense...Gordy being on the outside still creeps me out regardless of the Jags struggles, Im assuming these guys are not healthy enough to play otherwise they would be out there
