No they are not. Why do you keep making claims like this? There is NO OTHER TEAM in the league that plays every player on the roster just for the heck of it. Instead they play the players who do the best in practice. That is the way it works in the NFL. You can call Ross an "unknown" because he was injured most of this year, but the coaches have seen plenty of Core and Malone in practice.
Yeah, John Ross must look awful in practice....with the exception of the video he posted on twitter called "healthy scratch" where he is doing things to our defense that I have NEVER seen Lafell do to ANY team.
And I guess your message about practice holds true for the offensive line, right? Westerman and Redmond looked worse in practice than Bodine or Hopkins? Bullshit. You obviously don't realize the time constraints of an NFL practice and the starters get the vast majority of the reps. Marv never gave Core or Malone the chance in practice to prove themselves to the extend that Lafell would be out there. It is who was being paid.....their big FA acquisition, Captain Average (Lafell).
Since Marv's strategy worked so well as to motivate Ross to post a video of what really happens in practice, maybe Westerman, Redmond, Core, and Malone should do the same. It was immature, and the wrong thing to do, but it got a lot of people on here off Ross's back and on to Marvins. You should like that idea, because it is based on what they do in "practice"
