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.
I'm with you on this one. I thought it was quite the nice one-two punch of craziness when we were glad Marvin was leaving (yeah right) as the year wound down and we were excited to get a coach who "Got in players faces and held them accountable" but who would also "Play Ross with his bum knee and shoulder and lack of playbook knowledge no matter what because, why not?"
