I love the guy but his body is just letting him down. He's done.

He has hardly played in the last 4 seasons. Not sure if he is done-done but don't think he'll get paid like he currently is. He'll have the option to take less money next year and stay or walk. I figure he's the type of guy that will take less money.

Hopefully someone can play up to par. I definitely would not be shocked to see kendall as a skin or a trade go down in classic ceratto/snyder form

Exactly. Next week Rinehart will start, and Montgomery will be backup. Seems like our depth should be fine.

We still have O-lineman. MW, the center from Maryland we picked up plays Guard, we could bring back Bridges. There's a lot we could do.

Yep. Time for a changing of the guard, if you don't mind the pun.

Thomas was not his old self anyway. Maybe Rinehart or Montgomery can step up and we can run to the right for a change.

I didn't even think Thomas would last this long. Figured it'd be his neck or back that would be his undoing though

If Rinehart comes in and plays well, we'll be better off in the long run.

This is probably the best part of the season to have a different RG in there. There will be an adjustment period, but with Detroit, Tampa, Carolina, and Kansas City coming up, we can flounder to 3-1 while the offense gets back to what it does well.

We don't need to blow anyone out in the next few weeks, though a warning shot or two would be nice. But by December, there better be some beatdowns going on.

I agree. If it had to happen it couldn't of happened at a better time and will probably be for the best in the long run. I think the more Rinehart plays the better he'll get.

With the freakout going on today, I'm surprised no one has pointed out that we won't play a nationally televised game for another five weeks. That's plenty of time to figure out minor things like playcalling inside the ten.

Randy Thomas' injury is more concerning than anything that happened in this game, but they can recover.

Bridges signed with Arizona. I think we will be fine with Rinehart. If not we could sign Kendal. Pretty sure he could play RG.

For us to get better we need to run to the right. Next week we should run right ever running play till we get it right.

3 and out may prevent that?
