Quote:If we were thin enough that losing 2 WR's would necessitate starting 3 rookies, is that a high expectation to maybe be prepared for it?

They've lost 2 veteran receivers to injury, and 2 to suspensions.  How many receivers do you suggest they carry on the roster?  15? 

 

Seriously, nobody was clamoring or concerned about the WR corps even if we planned to go with 3 rookies until the past week or so when it's become clear that the inexperience is at least part of the reason why this offense is struggling.  Anyone who DID express any concern with getting rid of the most experienced veteran on the roster was shouted down.  All of a sudden people are concerned about the inexperience when prior to the start of the season, many of those same posters were trying to come up with trade scenarios to get rid of Shorts because we didn't need him based on the draft and rookie free agency.
