Looks like Nick Moore will replace Dobson Collins, J. R. Larose will start at safety, as Davis Sanchez goes on the nine game injury list, and Kornegay will start at wideside halfback in place of Ruffin.

The musical chairs, especially in the secondary just continues. Remember way back when the five starters — Marsh, Glover, Banks, Phillips and Miles — were basically intact for 3 years? Those were the days. Different coordinator if I recall too :wink:

Was Ruffin really that bad? I didn't really notice him out there which is probably a good thing. I would think that Phillips and/or Marsh should sit before Ruffin.

LaRose will be playing with a heavy heart too as he just lost his mother yesterday. Thoughts and prayers with him and his family.

Ruffin as IR was out of place on one coverage of his man, he certainly wasn't the concern DB on the day. I understand that they want to get Tad K in, but it adds up to another move that hurts the continuity of the secondary.

Wally expressed concern about not wanting to overwork the recently re-habbed Ruffin in games or practices. No knock on his play.

I remember thinking "Ruffin seems to be doing well, at least" while watching the game, myself. In light of his circumstances, I can understand Wally's decision (how many times have I said that this year?)

Its still possible Rufffin may start and Kornegay will come in....Ruffin played well last game but he also has knee issues.

Pleased to see Moore inserted back into the lineup for Collins. Moore had a couple of drops in the first game but he also was injured in that game.

I think he will add more to the lineup than Collins.

I too like seeing Moore inserted into the line up.

I can understand putting Tad in, but I had thought Ruffin was playing

Hmm, Hopefully Joe Henderson gives us something he was a speedy impact player at first last season.
