Practice report: Armstead does, Ellerbe does not (1 Viewer)

[Domeination]

Here we go again with Ellerbe.

This. Dude can't even make the first practice for a regular season game, and he's the best LB we have. Not good.

It really sucks because Ellerbe has been impressive in camp and pre season games.

Hopefully this is minor and is a full go on Sunday.

People, this is Wednesday, "now's not the time for fear. That comes later."

In either case we still need to draft a lb this offseason
Laurinitis is only a stop gap.

fast cover lbs that can roam sideline to sideline is what makes
Defenses good to great

I consider our lb core a strength now but we need to keep adding talent

Silver lining is that we may not have to see that stupid mop-like "expression" flopping around the field. The bad news is that Fleener still needs an appointment with Brutus Beefcake and he's likely to play.

Honestly to me ellerbe and robertson are mirror images of each other in the way they play. As long as we have one of those 2 healthy we will be fine because i have a feeling kv or harper are gonna play a ton of lb in the nickel.

That is why we got Robertson IMO....Ellerbe insurance.

I thought Stupar was Ellerbe's backup? Robertson played a ton at MLB during the preseason.

Pour a little Tussin on it.[emoji6]

And if you run out, pour some water in and BAM more tussin!

Not worried. Quad injury is not a career threat, usually heals 100% very quickly. Isn't nearly as persistent as a hammy or toe, for example. But yea, Ellerbe deserves the "injury prone" tag. He has yet to prove he can stay on the field,,, I hope he can.

If he sits this week and someone else steps up, I think Ellerbe is in jeopardy.
