    In other news, they are going to start using a 5 tight end base offense.

    Torbor had a damn good game against Pitt last week. There were times this year that he was invisible, but he came on as of late.

    I think it means that it's now or never for Maybin to step in and show he can play in the NFL.

    Torbor like a handful of others on our D has gotten better the more time they've played. A real good sign for the future IMO

    The NFL will have to make adjustments with an 18 game season such as increasing roster size (no more inactives on game day) & letting players come back from IR when healthy.

    Give him another season, then see if you still like the guy a lot.

    They are 2-9. Maybin should be playing every snap from here on out anyways.

    Re: Torbor IR'ed

    The best way I could put it, the last couple weeks was... "You know what? I do not hate Reggie Torbor."

    I mean it. This guy is way more athletic than I would have ever imagined him to be. He was a very solid tackler, and was around the ball a lot. I was impressed with his speed, and just his overall presence.

    I think he was invisible early on, due to the fact that he wasn't playing. Players tend to not make as much of an impact when they aren't on the field. That, in Buffalo-terms, means they suck and we need to move on.

    I am not fully convinced that Reggie Torbor is human. He may be a cyborg, which I am completely fine with a cyborg at LB...I just would like a well maintained cyborg. With a name like Torbor, the question on him being manufactured is only escalated, as that is one of the best names to roll off of the tongue in a long while.

    Re: Torbor IR'ed

    It sounds like Maybin has a big opportunity in front of him over the next 5 weeks. I've come to terms with the fact that Maybin will most likely never be the great player we hoped for, but it would still be good for our team if he could at least show signs that he has the ability to be a solid starter.

    They'll probably just play Coleman in his place. I'd like to see Maybin, though. He would've had a sack last week if not for that blantant hold.

    although I hate the circumstances (coming in to replace an injured player) , I'm glad that our young players are going to gain some experience which will come a long way especially for next year.

    No he doesn't, he'll just be active.
    Coleman is starting in 3-4 base, Scott will see alot of action in nickel defense, and Moats will get more pass rushing situations.

    Re: Torbor IR'ed

    This defense is banged up, hopefully AP is not 100% or we are in deep schnit this weekend. Even w/o AP, Gerhardt will likely gash us.
