Ellison injured, Scott playing OLB?

[OpIv37]

That's what WGR just said during the Sabres intermission. Anyone else hear it to confirm?

With DiGiorgio out, this team has ZERO depth at LB. And because we keep guys like Corto and Costanzo for their S/T prowess (or their predecessors, Stamer and Haggan), it holds us back. If Scott plays OLB, that means Wilson or Simpson will have to play S and we'll be weak at TWO positions because of ONE injury.

Great.

Re: Ellison injured, playing OLB?

d'oh, I f'd up the title. It was supposed to say "Scott playing OLB".

And Skoob, the season was over after the Cleveland loss.

Yep, I've said this for years...we hurt our depth by keeping players who can't actually play the game! Stupid management from both the general manager position and the coaching position keep killing this team. What's new?!?!

No, he's just confused that the season has been over for a few weeks already.

Re: Ellison injured, Scott playing OLB?

The only good thing about this is that we'd at least have one LB who could cover in the passing game.

Perhaps he's not ready yet? I was kind of wondering the same thing but that's the only thing that makes any sense unless he got injured.

Yeah, a few weeks when we were 5-1? How about now when we are in the top of the wild card hunt and will most likely be 7-5 after this week.

We're 9th in the AFC. We have to be in the top 6 or better to get a wild card. That means the 5, 6, 7, and 8 teams are ahead of us for the wild card. How do you figure we're at the TOP of the wild card race?

In reality, we're barely hanging on by a thread. One more conference or division loss and we're out.

Top of the wild card? Please.
