    Does anyone else....

    feel physically ill every time you read/hear/see something about "starting LB Marcus Buggs"?

    Losing Poz is REALLY going to hurt. This is what our special teams "success" costs us (and other than Lindell and one punt by Moorman, S/T sucked against the Pats).

    Buggs is going to fill in nicely...I'm not worried with him at all. What I am worried about is Ellison in pass coverage

          honestly, I never thought I'd say this, but I'm wishing we had him right about now. He did an ok job filling in and has a lot more experience than Buggs.

            Actually, so far I've been relatively impressed with Ellison's run defense. It confuses me because I thought of him more as a coverage LB than a run-defending LB, but he's the opposite at this point.

              Ellison, despite his frame, was never very good at coverage. That is why he was taken off the field in the nickel package.

                I'm concerned as well. Sunday will be a good test, as the Bucs can run the ball.

                  I agree losing Poz is a big blow. Buggs is auditioning right now for the next 5-6 weeks. I have a feeling Nic Harris is on his heals. So yea, I do get a bit sick thinking about it. I'd add John Wendling as a bright spot for our special teams last week. He made a nice tackle, and was always one of the first down the field.

                    Bring in Harris. We need to fill the void with the best possible fit. Tampa Bay as a fairly decent TE... WINSLOW... He will be a monster this week after seeing how the NE TE exposed the middle.

                      I'm definetly worried..

                      Why the hell are we so damn thin at LB. We're loaded to the gills with converts and projects...

                        I look at it as an opportunity to see what they have in Buggs. And then if that doesn't work, they move Ellison inside and start Harris.

                              I thought Wendling was a weak link. Including on Maroney's opening kickoff 52 yard return.
