What do we know about Chung and Spikes playing status. Plax will play Sunday Rex and Plax said. Joe McKnight Rex said we will have to wait and see and Pool Rex expresses some doubt.
I will never knock* Bill Belichick as a head coach, but he's done a horrible job building depth in their secondary. This year's draft class is incredibly weak at safety, so unless they bring in a solid free agent, they'll be weak at the position next year as well. Sergio Brown and James Ihedigbo have no business starting in this league. It will be interesting to see if Shaun Ellis and Digs are captains this week though.
Rex said in today's presser our biggest doubt for Sunday is McKnight- he said Cro would be returning kickoffs if MckNight can't play. Always an E ticket ride when Cro runs the ball.
So at this point Chung is leaning more towards not playing or playing? If he's out, the only decent player in their secondary is mccourty and their LB depth is also pretty shitty. I just hope we can light em' up!
If both Chung and Spikes don't play, that'd be awesome, because the Pats are pretty weak on D, especially in the secondary. Great to see Devito and Ellis practicing again...just hopin McKnight is good to go
Plax said he'll be good to play on Sunday. He looked great going down the middle last game, and the pats will have a tough time stopping it.
Spikes won't play (as soon as he started playing well) and If Chung can't play, the Jets should be able to throw the ball at will. Run the ball, please, please run the ball.
