Moten is the one we need to be worried about Mesi is fine

Good point. The thing that makes Moten elite is the short area quickness, getting into the backfield

What’s up with Lofton?

Do you guys watch the games?

 

[bacane]

Well, you tell me sport, he has two catches in three playoff games. Do you call that a huge loss? And more so, it’s not like we’ve been playing with elite tight end production all season anyways. So I’m curious, do you think that’s a huge loss? To catches in three games.

Of course it’s a significant loss. We’ve only played two TEs & often use two TE sets. So an inexperienced true freshman likely gets snaps. Lofton is also capable of making a play in a game like this. Also is a factor in our run game.
That’s why it’s unfortunate your medical updates were so off.

I AM TRYING TO GRASP ON TO ANY HOPE I CAN RIGHT NOW, lol, please stop laughing at me and using logic

I got you bro, I am same way.. We know how Mario is, we wont know anything until the game is played.. Lets hope everyone is good. I remember when the power brokers created the narrative of they dont want the kids playing NFL seasons, or get too long, another was school work load and finals and all that BS.

Seems since they couldnt keep all the money on some quasi slave labor, they dont say any of that anymore and push for 100 team playoffs if they have to.. Team has been banged up.

Two catches in three games. Again, we’re not losing Rob Gronkowski here or Tony Gonzalez. I think we’ll be OK.

It’s called sarcasm. Our friend Dr Kane insisted all week it was just a bruised sternum & Lofton was good to go.

You know we use him for blocking right.

 

[WestGA'Cane]

More Luka. Not ideal with Lofton out, but c'mon..

 

[miamicanes305]

Anyone know the practice status of Damari? Know he’s questionable and practiced for ole miss but has he been practicing this week? Know he was practicing for ole Miss so curious if he took any steps back since then

 

[NicKane]

Yes, I do. I’m bummed out for the kid, but I think we’ll be fine tomorrow.

 

[Cane30]

I think as of yesterday, Damari is a game time decision. He seems to think he will play. I doubt it would be to many snaps if he does.

 

[90scane]

I’m ready to see a pass to Gilbert.

 

[Distructobot3000]

Yeah I'm confused about OJ. Not listed on the injury report, but I listened to the 247 pod this AM and they're only expecting 5-10 snaps from him? Need him for the first half.

How confident could the coaches possibly in a player be if his ankle is so badly injured that the best they can hope to get out of him is 5-10 snaps? At that point, wouldn’t you just HAVE to go with a completely healthy younger player?

OJ might still be somewhat limited from his previous ankle injury, but it seems Lake may be just speculating on how limited he thinks OJ will be.

 

[dunkman23]

This might sound selfish on my part as a fan, but I need OJ to play 70 snaps minimum because 13 is a problem. I need him in the whole game, there's no tomorrow, I need him all game.

 

[NC_Canes_11]

Calm down, fellas. OJ's back. Leave OJ in the island by himself and double the other side, regardless of who's in the game.

Nobody is worried about our top 3. It’s the 4th that doesn’t exist right now. Or leaving Thomas to cover 1v1

 

[NC_Canes_11]

Lol aye bro maybe they do but you’re basically saying they should do something they probably rarely do all year. Its not really anyone assuming anything its just what they have been doing, if they do something different them we will go from there

Its a big game so i understand being anxious but you’re basically creating a worst case scenario situation and then asking everyone else why are we assuming they won’t do this. Like maybe they do but its more likely they stick with what has them 15-0

If Cignetti thinks they’re better than either he’s a genius or an idiot, depending on how the game turns out if they play the same style.

But I’m not sure how a random guy on the Internet coming up with a game plan that’s more likely to work, is something nobody on here can fathom.

I mean it took A miracle against PSU, a choke by Iowa and OSU gave away the game to them. If that doesn’t prove they can’t just line up and easily beat everybody at their own game, idk what does.

 

[Hoyacane1620]

Use SJ if we need to . He can line up as a fullback

Our fourth is Jabari slime Antoine, and he’s been excellent for us in his snaps these playoffs. Don’t forget about that gentleman, and he deserves some respect.

Respectable for sure especially considering he's a true freshman.

IMO, he's still a step down from our other CBs due to inexperience. Here's to hoping he can be forged by the fire.

I’m ready to see a pass to Gilbert.

I got him not only catching a pass but scoring a TD too. He is a huge body that in the short area red zone can do damage with blocking and also leaking out in a play action play. Indiana im sure will be all eyes on Bauman and to a certain degree, relieved that Lofton is out and might ignore Gilbert as a "non threat"
