Quote:What are you talking about? I said I forgot to list Thomas on the second lineup. Marcedes should never be in a lineup over Thomas, even if it's a power run formation. Thomas should be in on every down. What we're really doing is arguing over Marcedes being better or worse than having the 3rd WR on the field and a single back or having the 2nd WR on the field and a FB. In either case I'd say it's much more valuable to have the WR on the field than Marcedes unless it's a goal line definite power run situation.

 

OK, I misunderstood what you meant when you said you left him off.  But yes, we are debating whether a 3rd WR is more valuable than a 2nd TE. That's what we have to do if you're going to claim that Lewis has no place in this offense. Neither Julius nor Lee are good run blockers. Even if you look at it from the perspective of the defense being worried about the pass, from a match-up stand point, it's still not a good match-up for us.

 

Having Lewis in there along with Julius gives us a more balanced formation that should allow us to attack through the air or on the ground.
