Lori Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 Johnson, Florence, Lankster, Palmer, Chambers, Fine, Ellis.
scribo Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 Disappointed that the list includes Ellis and Lankster, especially since Florence is out.
High Mark Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 Ellis and the two CBs are a suprise. Jauron must be convinced we wont need to rush the passer or defend 5 WR sets.
WVUFootball29 Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 Surprised to see Lankster inactive. Interested to see who takes Jenkins place on STs tonight Florence is still injured
Lori Posted September 14, 2009 Author Posted September 14, 2009 Disappointed that the list includes Ellis and Lankster, especially since Florence is out. DE: Schobel, Denney, Kelsay, Maybin CB: McGee, McKelvin, Corner, Youboty Not sure they'd normally activate more than four at either position.

Steely Dan Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 Damn! I wanted to see Ellis. Glutton for punishment?
cåblelady Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 Glutton for punishment? I haven't been in my right mind today.
Kelly the Dog Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 Disappointed that the list includes Ellis and Lankster, especially since Florence is out. Lankster would get killed in this game. He has potential but he was beaten badly in every pre-season game. I think fans got a little over-reacted to the few interceptions he made (which were excellent, don't get me wrong) but he was easily faked out and he often lost his man or didn't know the coverage. It is kind of surprising they would only go with four CBs but both Byrd and Whitner can play nickel and dime CB if necessary. Without Jenkins, they probably decided they needed the extra ST demon, like Wendling the 5th Safety.
San Jose Bills Fan Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 Johnson, Florence, Lankster, Palmer, Chambers, Fine, Ellis. Thank you as usual Lori. Nice pregame fodder. Great job on the game day preview too as usual. Do you usually not make a score prediction? I always read them but can't remember if you do or don't? Why is Johnson on the list? I believe he's been nursing a thigh injury and only started practicing again late this week.
Lori Posted September 14, 2009 Author Posted September 14, 2009 Pats inactives: Connolly, Edelman, Green-Ellis, Ohrnberger, Pryor, Simmons, Slater and Wheatley. That leaves just four WRs (including Sam Aiken), which all but guarantees that Welker is just fine. Interesting that rookie Darius Butler is active at CB ahead of Terrence Wheatley. Pryor leaves them with paper-thin depth at DE, which could mean more 3-4 (or a lot of Burgess).

cåblelady Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 Today? BTW.....I was referring to Ellis Lankster.

Not saying that he can't develop, but he would be a nightmare in real action at this point.
26CornerBlitz Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 The team must really be feeling good about Bell with Chambers inactive.....hope he rewards their confidence.
Alphadawg7 Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 Johnson, Florence, Lankster, Palmer, Chambers, Fine, Ellis. After the preseason Lankster had I am suprised he is inactive...Johnson and Ellis are a little bit of a surprise too
BillsWatch Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 The team must really be feeling good about Bell with Chambers inactive.....hope he rewards their confidence. It is more likely they think well of Jonathon Scott since he was kept rather than Chambers.
