    I can't imagine even if Dunn is ready to go he can be as effective as he was before the injury. That many weeks not playing ... has to take some actual full speed practice/games to get back into the swing of it.

    I doubt Dunn will play. Hip injuries are nothing to mess with as a RB. Ty should be able to play with the shoulder. Might limit his receiving ability.

    Then just drop the wheel route perfectly over the shoulder into his hands. Out of those 4, Ty can make a game changing impact with how he was playing before he got hurt. Even the play he got hurt on was a beautiful run.

    Ty's status is HUGE for this game. Against a disciplined, stingy defense where good drives are difficult to string together we need his explosive home ability

    How can Alison, Wimbush and Brooks have the conditioning required to play close to 100%?

    I strongly disagree. Alison is the best player right now because of his experience , and he is a tick faster, but Bridges was showing signs last year of his ability to stick like glue to receivers. Bridges is more than talented, he has the intangibles to be great. As far as pure boundary coverage one on one, he is the best; however, CB's do a lot more than that and Bridges will need more reps to become a better all around football player than Alison.

    You don’t think they’ve been couch potatoes the last few weeks do you?

    Athletes still train when they’re injured and recovering.

    Brooks just had a shoulder he'd be able to get plenty of conditioning. Depending on the severity of the other two (which we don't know) who knows how much they have been moving around.

    Your crazy if you don't think Alison is our best corner. He has shut down weineke the last few times we have played and we can put him out there by himself without needing help. This allows us to run different blitz packages. Bridges has definatley came a long way and is looking awesome toward the end of the year, it was a good decision to move him to cb. His tracking has been great to for a cb. Hopefully he can be the next great cb.

    100% Alison is our best corner. 80% Alison could become a liability.
