We just need to stay afloat until we get our IR back

[Joelist]

Right now it doesn't matter if it looks pretty. We are down the following players either to IR or to injury but not IR yet:

Sample - Season ending IR
Jackson - IR
Murphy - IR
Rankins - OUT (Hammy)
Hill - Doubtful (Hammy)
Hubbard - Playing on injured Hammy

Just getting back Murphy and Jackson is a big improvement. Hopefully we also get Hill and possibly Rankins too - so far we have yet to see the intended DL group.

Staying afloat is actually easier than some would lead you to believe.

Murphy I agree with.
Jackson I liked as a NT prospect in the draft, but no one's really seen much of him given he got injured on Aug 5 and has been out since.
He had all of like a week of training camp and I don't remember any buzz about his performance during that week.

I think it's too early to call Jackson's return a big improvement, but it is important for his own development and just more bodies for rotation in general.

Yeah, Mythbusters proved it was possible for them to stay mostly afloat once they stabilized and just lay flat.  They went an extra step and attached the life preservers to the underside of the door and it was really buoyant.  Jack should have put on his thinking cap.
