We are going into a playoff game with a 4th round pick who should be playing meaningful snaps at DT yet he hasn't even dressed for an NFL game even though he has been on the roster for the entire regular season. And a 3rd round pick who should be playing meaningful snaps at LB. Instead our draft picks have minimal experience after their first year in the NFL. And they are expected to play meaningful snaps in the playoffs.
We have an easy win this weekend. Our biggest weakness is two guys who could have and should have got more experience than Marvin Lewis has given them.
We got this Win. But we should be better.
You dont understand much about this do you...
We have a 7-8 man DL rotation you can only have 46 guys active each game day.
Not everyone is gonna get playing time.. Why play a rookie in a game when the other guys ahead of him on the depth chart are playing at a higher level?
You play your best players and let the rookies develop in practice. their job is to be ready if needed... and a 4th rounder isnt a High draft pick
A Key understanding of how this all works will help you avoid thread failures in the future. but its par for course i guess from your other post.
