I watched the game from at bar, so I need a little help here…

How much did Derek Fine play?  Was he just confined to STs?  The same question goes for Corner too.

What was the DE rotation?  I don’t think I saw Ellis at all out there.  I thought I saw a lot of Copeland Bryan.  Speaking of the D line, did McCargo do anything?

Anyone have anything on Josh Reed?  Does his absence, forever how long if he is hurt, enable Steve Johnson to crack the line-up, or will Jenkins be reinserted?

What are the chances Royal is on the team next year?  I thought this was the last year of his contract.  I could be wrong, and he might have one more.  Either way, if I were him, I wouldn’t be buying a house here anytime soon.  And if he already has a house here, I might start having it patched up to make it a better sell…

Is Scott someone who should be considered here with an extension?  I’m not sure myself.  Frankly, I’m disappointed that Wendling hasn’t forced his way on the field more.  I know he was a late round pick, but I had some hopes he’d become something more than a STer.  I think if you’re looking at off season defensive needs list, aside from DE (And it DOES NOT have to be a speed rusher!)  and LB, a solid safety is something that should be looked for.

From the Sporting News Fly – hey 71, didn’t you used to be Jason Peters?

How many snaps was James Hardy on the field for?  If he keeps up his current pace, he’s going to fall short of even the most modest expectations any of us had, myself included.

We aren’t using that traditional FB much, are we?  Did Corey McIntyre make any difference yesterday?

Where do we sit overall on the turnover margin?  As much as I think most stats are useless, and can be skewered toward any argument you want to make, I do usually pay attention to that one.  I just can’t find it anywhere.  My gut tells me they’re not as good there as their record would indicate.

I’ll make an early stab at a late season prediction – the last game against the Pats will not only be for a division title, but also for the only playoff spot to come out of the AFC East.  That will also end up being a night game, if I had to bet…

Who’s leading the team on STs tackles so far?

Anyone remember the “Whammy Weenie?”  I just found out Nick Bakay has mine.  I want it back.  Wish me luck….
