Just checked-he started the Cleveland game fyi


Sirles was out due to a knee injury that week so they had to start Isidora.  Sirles has been primary backup at LG all season.

Sirles makes the most sense with his experience but Isdora has played quiet a bit for a rookie.  Hopefully they have a OG on speed dial, non are on the PS that I see.


Hopefully Sirles and Isadora can both get some playing time against the bears.
We do have Aviante Collins on the roster but I'm not sure where he is at being ready to play.
He has been inactive for most of the games.

Sucks for Nick, but the team can fade this.


Not sure the team won't notice, but Easton is easily the most replaceable

Berger can play center, but yes Elflein would suck to lose because he's one of the top 2 olineman we have.

Can play yes...but he's not as good as Easton who is a big step down from Elf.  Having to move Berger to C would be very very bad.

The legend of Easton just keeps growing, he's the position I'm hoping for an upgrade this off-season.
