I know this isn't a primary concern given the situation of the team but: In London Jack played there because Skuta was injured.

 

When Skuta came back in Chicago they splitted snaps quite equally (these numbers don't include special teams snaps): 15 snaps for Jack, 14 for Skuta. (1 tackle for Jack, 0 for Skuta)

 

Yesterday against Oakland Skuta played 17 snaps while Jack only 8. (1 tackle each).

 

Bradley a couple of weeks ago and last week said while Jack would have been the starter (starter who plays half the snaps of the other player LOL) they'd have splitted snaps at the position because one can be more useful than the other in different situations.

 

What difference did you notice in how they use them?Because the OTTO mainly plays the run and covers the flats and i've seen them both doing  pretty much the same thing. Skuta should be more of a pass rusher but I rarely remember him blitzing or rushing the passer. 

And as most of the time they get off the field right on 2nd down as they go nickel (Colvin played around 40 snaps in fact) it's not really a "keep them both fresh" issue

 

Are they using Jack & Skuta differently or it's a sort of "excuse" to just give some playing time to both without having to take a decision? (I still find it crazy that Skuta gets twice playing time than Jack yesterday although I don't know if he lined up at LEO sometimes)
