Unless.....McVay gets one or both backs started early and often and they jointly or severally have
success.

Or sign CJ for a few weeks

Not sure that’s the answer, not sure the answer is on the roster.

I almost wonder if, despite the ridiculous success they had with him, if CJ was actually part of the problem. McVay seemed to have fallen victim to the "shiny new toy gets the most attention" adage and in the big games the pieces didn't seem to fit

If Gurley can't go would that mean no 6 man fronts? Or is that the staple defense for facing a McVay offense? We might be asking too much to rely on Henderson. There's a reason he's only been active 3 of the 5 games. They don't think he's ready. I remember when we thought Kelly would be another option. Sometimes you can't trust rookies. Especially in pass protection.

is no reason sir, to go all negative on using our #70 overall 2019 Draft Pick, the former Memphis Tiger RB Darrell Henderson versus the Whiners this Sunday, eh!

Maybe Henderson proves to be our next Wendell Tyler!!??

Seriously, I hope your snowfall wasn't too unpleasant for you.....our family knows that sneaky Cascadia snow too well, having had a timeshare these past 25 years in Chelan. Stay warm buddy!

Cheers from Vancouver, BC.

PS Drove to work today with the top down!! Probably my last day though!
Good thing those Swedes put uber-strong heaters in those SAABs!!

I know what you mean. The weather's been cooling down in central Cali. Pretty soon I'll have to turn my AC down a bit.

Very possible.

If he can't block, then I don't want him. CJ proved that he can't block (good riddance).... I hope that Henderson can. Goff is too much of an investment to have backs and TEs that can't block.

We had 3” here Monday, highs in the 40s all week. Still some snow here and there. Crazy cold. So much for global warming. Now that my brain is frozen, maybe I can get on board with the idea that Henderson is the next Marshal Faulk.

Climate change causes that kind of wild weather. It's not "it gets warmer everywhere all the time." Rising temperatures produce these great swings.

Kelly activated...

1. Brown
2. Henderson
3. Kelly

Get the run established and the play action will work just fine.

Looks like we are stuck with JoJo SoSoPR Gnatson as Nsimba Webster was waived to make room for Kelly on 53-man roster.

Hope Webster clears waivers and Los Ramos get him back onto our PS.
